Thanks to the anonymous emailer who asked if I've got nothing better to do than sit around writing blogs moaning about the Council (amongst other things).
This was a fairly typical week. In 2 weeks when we're doing the festival, it will be bonkers - check the program, we've got some great bands. I'll be featuring details next week - www.millhillmusicfest.co.uk
Oh and by the way, I'll be plugging it shamelessly here. My Band the False Dots are playing on Friday 26th June as part of the festival at The Mill Hill Sports Club, Graham Park Way. It'll be your chance to see if I'm really as handsome as I pretend !
Decide for yourself. This was my week.

Oh and as you asked, I'd much rather be doing something else (See above picture). I enjoy everything else on the above list. I hate writing about the Sheltered Housing Warden issue. It makes me feel physically sick. It's just that, to quote the old saying "All it takes for the success of Evil, is for good men to do nothing" I can't do much, but with my limited time I can write this blog & hopefully inspire a few of you do something as well.
One other thing, if I didn't get the odd crank email or nasty comment, I'd probably not be doing a very good job, would I?
