Janet and I are just back from a great week away in the Caribbean - we are pictured (right) in the lovely island of St Thomas - we also visited St Maarten and Nassau in the Bahamas.
I'd like to thank member services staff at the City Council for dealing with urgent constituent enquiries whilst I was away - in their usual highly efficient and pleasant way - and to my LibDem colleagues who ensured my weekly ward surgeries ran as normal.
Now back to hundreds of e-mails! Holidays seem like history very soon after you return!
