The annual Katesgrove Residents Association May Party took place at at Waterloo Meadows on Bank Holiday Monday featuring a visit from the Mayor. It also saw the new councillor for Katesgrove proving to be a hot shot at Splat-A-Rat although he swears that he had no-one in mind when playing it! Thankfully the traditional Soak-A-Councillor game was notable by its absence, but I can't help thinking that it would have made a fortune.
After the excitement of the election, it was back down to earth as a trip around the ward revealed a litany of burnt out cars, abandoned matresses and sofas and poorly maintained paving. It's a good job I didn't promise to sort it out overnight.
It would be even more popular today!
I look forward to Typepad letting me post on this blog without them trying to charge me or force me to create a separate blog.
