What nice people (yes I mean it)

I haven't been able to make my voluntary work for a number of weeks but they were kind enough to welcome me and not ask who I was!  It is a pleasure to work with such nice other people.

A 70th wedding anniversary was next - I didn't even know there was such a thing, but it is called a platinum anniversary.  A really lovely couple that were an example to all of us.  I liked their advice for a long and happy marriage.  Don't sleep on an a row, don't let an argument linger.  I had to smile when he said "I say what I like", and she responded "and I do what I like", but it was obvious neither would upset the other.  More including pictures on The Mayor's Blog tomorrow.

Focus delivery time, and taking bundles round to the good volunteers who count, deliver to deliverers, and deliverers themselves.  All willing to help.  Again, what nice people.

Straight from that to the Calor Awards where I was acting as mayoress and met lots of really good people working hard in their villages to make like better, and a greater community.  You could feel the community spirit when you walked into the room.  More information about winning villages Thorpe Thewles and Long Newton along with the photos on John's Blog again.

For us to make our 70th wedding anniversary we'd both have to turn 96. I hope we do. And I hope that we still have enough about us when we do to be able to joke.
Actually, I hope Pete doesn't :)
