Just got home from the Conservative Summer Fair at Gresham's in Holt to discover in the Sunday Times that I am "much RESPECTed". I guess that's quite good to TROT out on the odd election leaflet!
Yesterday I took a carload to help in the Leicester South by-election. We spent the day out on the streets delivering huge amounts of leaflets. Polling day is Thursday. Fingers crossed.
Friday evening was spent at the delightful West Barsham Hall. Cecil and Ann Parkinson came up to support me. Cecil was in good form. Last time he and I appeared on the same platform Ann and I ended up splatered with eggs. It was at UEA 20 years ago. God I feel old...
What was the feel on the ground in Leicester? Seems the press and the bookmakers are writing the Conservatives off. Do you think we might hang on to second?
ReplyDeleteI'm long in the tooth enough never to predict a by election result...
