When my Daughter came round this morning she brought a copy of the Obs, and I was rather surprised that there are two things in this weeks edition that didn't merit a mention on here. The first was the sad death of former Labour Councillor Ted Hillman, I knew Ted very well as we were on a couple of school governors bodies together, Ted was one of those councillors who class as salt of the earth, no great shakes when it came to discussing multi million pound budgets, but ask him to sort a problem out for you and he'd be there in a flash, just surprised no one mentioned his death, but I suppose its a case out of mind when you've outlived your usefulness, as I know all too well. RIP Ted.
The second one was an article on the expenses claimed by Graham Jones in his first 3 months as an MP, now I'm not going to go into a tirade about our MP, its not easy going to London to live for the first few months plus getting all your ducks in a row and getting organised when your a newby, but if it had been a Tory I have a feeling that Garinda's living of the fat of the land, may just have made a reappearance
