Swimming Pools and Bus passes!

Another local campaign I would like to see promoted is that, whilst the location I live in comes under the Lee Valley and by implication, has many rivers and tributaries our local council sees fit to reduce the number of swimming polls in the area when there are already too few for the local population to enjoy.Whilst I think there should be an onus on the council to provide such a service to enable all children to at least be able to learn the basics that may one day save their life it is also ironic to me that the Olympics will stage a number of water born activities here just 15 miles from the proposed Olympic village in East London but what chance of local talent
competing all the Olympic committee seem interested in is who is using the their symbol inappropriately like this!
Well Lord Coe We want or swimming pool back and it is a great credit to local campaigner June Crew and rebel Tory counsellor Jim Metcalf (who was dismissed from the council from raising the plight of the swimming poll that should never have been closed!)

Another campaign I am surprised to learn about is the possibility
that pensioners may lose the right of free travel on buses and if
you click on the title of the blog you can sign a petition to stop
such nonsense!

Lest we forget!
In the year we saw the last of the World War One ‘Tommy’s’ complete his journey on this earth and many World War Two warriors now considering how many more memorials they will attend especially in foreign lands, we appreciate what their lives and those who did not return stand for in giving us freedom of speech and a quality of life many of us take for granted and my thoughts of my late father a peace loving man facing the horror of war from the rear gunning turret of a Lancaster Bomber.
