We have done our bit & voted for the Commissioner of Police for Warks or some larger area.
We have had no information on which to base our choice apart from a phone call from the Tory Party!
Why is the appointment political?
Surely it should be the best wo/man for the job.
I was tempted to take the advice heard on Radio 4 - veto the vote.
We were voters no 15 & 16 at midday, so no great rush on.
Cold & foggy this morning, now just cold & damp, so not a garden day - the chickens were all perching on the branches of the large shrub by the front gate - entrance really since the gate went over 30 years ago, quickly followed by the brick gateposts, as one was "Pisa like".
A domestic day - I'm on the third load of washing - everything not nailed down!
E mails to do & a sermon to start, which I can finish tomorrow morning whilst serving in the village shop.
Israel trip seems to have been just in time - the troubles are escalating sharply after 4 years of peace.
A selection of our photos - hope they are of interest.

People called Romanis they go the house?
This is a "Life of Brian" comment.
I know this because W just phoned to discuss my comment on his blog & told me.
It is the literal translation of "Romans go home".
