Residents’ survey drenching
Last night Cllr O’Hanlon and I were joined by a number of helpers as we visited the Rectory Lane / The Drive area of the ward talking to local people about the current Lib Dem resident’s survey. We are travelling round various parts of the ward in the coming days handing short surveys on a range of issues out to local people. It’s always important to find out your views on the issues. I we don’t get round to your house, and you want a survey, just get in touch and we’ll make sure you get one.
Since it’s only a short survey, we’re giving people the chance to fill it in there and then, and leave it sticking out of the letter box for us to pick up when we walk ack past their house at the end of our round. Unfortunately last night, in between the distribution and collection of the surveys, the heavens opened and I was caught in a nasty torrent which rendered a lot of the surveys a liquid mess, and turned me from upstanding-Councillor-about-town to dishevelled dripping drowned rat. I have been coughing a lot today, and fear that I may have given my health to the cause!
Forget polling data - the real reason I don’t want Gordon Brown calling an election for October is because the thought of canvassing in the dark and pouring rain sends another shiver through my already shivering body!
