Thursday 25/6/15 Hayling College Prizegiving

This evening we were present at the Hayling College prize giving evening. I do find visiting the College rewarding and enjoyable. The students were polite and confident and a packed hall applauded their achievements.

Thursday 25/6/15 Riders School Litter Pick

At lunchtime Andy and I went to watch the children of Riders School in Leigh Park litter pick. This was organised by Litter Action. After a talk by one of the HBC Environmental Rangers we presented certificates to the children. They were very bright and asked some searching questions of the ranger.

Thursday 25/6/15 Funlands

Late afternoon we opened the new Jurassic Ride at Funlands and went on the first ride.

The evening was in aid of Epilepsy Action and it is the third year Funlands have held this event. As the photo’s show we did have a very good time and hope we may have helped raise the profile of this worthwhile charity.

Wednesday 24/6/15 The High Sheriff at Home

In the evening we spent a pleasant couple of hours in the gardens of the High Sheriff of Hampshire at Ashe near Basingstoke. The High Sheriff is the Sovereign’s representative for matters relating to the Judicary and law and order. We are certainly meeting people from all walks of life during our Mayoral year, and of course promoting Havant at every opportunity.

Wednesday 24/6/15 The Abbeyfield Society

In the afternoon Andy and I enjoyed a Strawberry Tea in the gardens of Abbeyfield in Havant. With Havant residents attending and some from Gosport, what a lovely way to spend an afternoon. Abbeyfield are homes where older people can live independently but with some assistance. A lovely way to live.
