When is Wiltshire Day again?
When is Wiltshire Day again?
BBC, oof. "I like Farage, he's relatable, most politicians seem private school educated." Lots to unpack there...
Privilege to be in the audience for Dream of Gerontius, a spectacular performance with over 150 musicians at Steam. Loved it!
I love being on South Swindon PC as it shows what can be done as a council when the resources are available!
You think you don't like traffic cones?
Busy morning litter picking in Parks -thanks to Keep Swindon Tidy for organising
Then out to Eldene with @cllrmikedavies.bsky.social cllr Mariane Le Coyte Grinney for a spot of door knocking and a demonstration of the street sign cleaning tool which I may well be asking to borrow soon!
Great evening out at The Barn in Cirencester watching Sondheim's Company. On until Saturday!
Busy day! 15km run checking out Wichelstowe, then Zoom members meeting. Canvassing in Walcot then a litter pick in Eldene. Sofa and rugby now!
Interesting, if you like data showing effects of policy. www.theguardian.com/education/20...
Good read. Archaic practices are a barrier to good governance.

They also voted against the rise in council tax, so not sure how they would have funded their plans that needed it.
This looks fun!
It was cold and wet on the doors today, but good to get out there and a good response. Residents pleased to see @heidialexander.bsky.social making contact.
Only one appropriate t-shirt for the last outing of the pantmo!
Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"
Get in day for an amateur production is one of the great examples of team effort in action. Time to bring the show to life!
A key issue for Swindon too!
People should not have to be super confident bicyclists to be able to bike for transportation. If your road that should be available as a transportation corridor isnβt safe for a competent 10 year old cyclist or an adult who is newish to biking to ride on, itβs not safe enough.
Great visit to Royal Wootton Bassett this morning to talk about Frankenstein the Panto - any interest in a chat, @yourbenpraters.bsky.social ?
Come to panto. It will be silly. My youngest is in it.... As is @cllrmikedavies.bsky.social .....

Killerton Parkrun with family. Too much mud for my shoes, but good to get out!
Time for some post Christmas exercise with Longevity Games indoor pilot!
Santas baby!
I have ridden home for Christmas!
Oof
Always struck by the difference in feel between cycling to Parkrun in sports kit and the daily commute! Zooom!
Lydiard House looking great last night!
Wahoo! @bertsbooks.bsky.social
