Canvassing, Canvassing and then some more Canvassing

Despite the dip in temperatures as the thermometer barely got above zero all weekend our campaign team and volunteers were turning up the heat in preparation for the General Election or a By-Election (if Gordon Brown can get over his pathological fear of elections). Friday early evening was spent in the village of Breedon meeting residents on the doorsteps. Saturday and Sunday mornings were spent in the Greenhill Ward canvassing voter intentions and identifying our supporters. We also delivered leaflets across several polling districts.

Given the very cold weather on returning home a hot shower was most welcome to warm up my legs, you don't seem to realize how cold it is on the streets until you get back into the warm.

Another weekend of excellent progress, as we tick off another week of the pre-election period.
