Julie Walters and Helen Mirren were nowhere in sight but the Cranfield WI were a lively lot and they gave fellow parish councillor Jill Brocklebank and myself a warm welcome last night. They must get fed up with the Calendar Girls film (now endlessly touring as a slightly nude stage production). On the parish council we get fed up with Dibley of course. We all have our crosses to bear.
We explained the eccentricities, powerlessness and history of the parish council and collectively grieved over delays in getting traffic calming and the insensitivities of large property developers (who could that be?). We finished with a cup of tea and some very nice sandwiches. Then it was back home to watch Manchester City toss Swansea aside in the premier league. Disappointing but the rest of the evening was first rate.
