Delivering with the Mayor and Mayoress

It's not often you get help delivering leaflets from such nobility.

Yesterday the Mayor and Mayoress of Bath, Cllrs Tim and Sharon Ball came to help out in the Norton Radstock Town Council by election.

Despite the rain and thunder we delivered, between us, to over 400 houses.

You can never go wrong though with the Balls. Tim is one of those seasoned campaigners whose 17 years 'in the business' makes him one of the very best. I have learnt a lot in a short period from Tim - how to be a good and effective Councillor and how to campaign meaningfully so that the end result is the achievement of your goal.

Anyway, that's enough praise for Tim. We are now only one day away from the by election. All I've seen from the opposition is one Conservative leaflet and a magazine from Dan Norris (I didn't know he was standing), both giving the impression that there hearts aren't really in it. Midsomer Norton residents are now receiving their fourth leaflet from the Lib Dems! Has it paid off? I guess we'll find out tomorrow!
