Town Council elections

Listed on the Town Council notice board are the candidates standing for the 21 places on the Town Council (May 2011 to May 2015). The election takes place on the same day as the district council elections, and the referendum on the Alternative Voting System. That is May 5th.
I will be standing again, and hope to be re-elected. I attach a copy of my CV with a slightly different ending from that which will appear in our campaign leaflets. I will let you know on May 6th how it all went.
Macmillan Cancer Care at 100

War memorial progress

The war memorial has been cleaned, and stone sets laid. The trees and seats look similar to those in the Market Place at the other end of the High Street. The same architect has been involved with both projects.
