Off to Whitley Bay today for a two day break. Not been there for 40 years so would like to see the differences but can't remember the original so can't. The picture is of me on holiday taken some time ago with some friends. The weather forecast will not allow similar sunbathing but we'll have a good time. Meanwhile up here the local election results were analysed yesterday- I know I'm quite sad. Labour made gains as did the SNP- despite being in Government and the Liberal Democrats and Conservatives continue their long decline the former more dramatically. Good to see the Greens pick up seats too. I still feel disinclined towards party politics with the issues facing society now too complex for party restrictions. More direct democracy may be the answer but who knows. Also enjoyed a nice meal last night in a posh part of Livingston(yes there is such a place),with former work colleagues; lots of catching up. Anyway off to pack..
