Mal and I were feeling more positive than we have done in a very long while. We had our local elections yesterday.  In November a group was founded “Sandwich Matters”. Mal contributes by doing their website (and attending meetings). 5 Councillors had resigned, very dubious “things ” going on. Sandwich Matters put forward 5 Independents and they all had far more votes than the Conservatives. Two of them are actually for the South , where we live, which is usually ignored. Maybe only a small step to stopping the corruption and lies going on countrywide but a start. As I say, feeling much more positive that change can happen with enough effort. Well done Melissa!

By the time Ellie and I reached Dumpton Gap beach (8.30am!) it was just like summer. Ellie had a lot of fun rolling in the sand and running in the sea.

Mal finished early as the college always does on Friday. He told me another member of staff is leaving! He is now off for half term week. Yes, they have managed to persuade him to go back after half term, they have a real staff shortage.

Thought for the Day – “Never stop doing little things for others. Sometimes those little things occupy the biggest part of their hearts.”
