12 May - A new lark in the park
A rare fine day
for the Lesnes Abbey Farmerְ’s Market today and the local Councillors (Belvedere
ward) came up with the novel idea of being there to hold an impromptu surgery.
I didn’t like to intrude as they were busy at the time I wandered by and in
any case I was dressed like a tramp because Iְְ’d merely taken just a few minutes
out from a small gardening job.
Please excuse the particularly poor mobile phone
photos taken at a distance but that is unmistakably Councillor Sally Hinkley.
Never slow to be critical
of Councillors who don’t do surgeries @tonyofsidcup immediately popped up with a Twitter/X question.
Maybe Councillor Hinkley will forgive me if I partially answer the question for
her. Over the past week she has given me advice about what can be done to tackle a
bad landlord and dug out some information about a questionable planning
decision; both BiB postbag items that did not merit a mention here.
She also did me a little favour that has absolutely nothing to do with Bexley
Council, just a nice gesture from someone who tries to do nice things.
Daniel can speak for himself; or choose not to if he has any sense!
