Despite the sometimes wet weather a large gathering attended the Remembrance Ceremony on New Brightons seafront at the War Memorial.The Councilors from four Wallasey Wards attended and then went on to the Royal British Legion to where the parade marched back.
After the service I was surprised to learn from my ward colleague Cllr Sue Taylor that whilst investigating the best way to expend some money thats been made available to improve the highway and its furniture in the ward she had found that to remove a planter,those large flower beds in the streets behind the amusement arcade, would cost £20,000 (each) so thats not the solution for the residents of those streets with their parking problems.

Monday there was a full Council meeting at the Town Hall and on Tuesday I went onto the Fort with my fellow Cllr Tony Pritchard to a birthday party that we had been invited to.
When I entered I managed to have a brief word with the Forts owner who confirmed that English Heritage had been in touch with him and I gathered may be going to assist with maintenence work of the old building.

Thursday night was Bonfire Night and I watched a lot of Moretons noisy fire work display whilst out canvassing with only three weeks to go to the by-election in the area.
Saturday I accompanied the Prospective Parliamentary Candidate Cllr Leah Fraser to St James Church in New Brighton.
The occasion was a coffee morning in aid of the Royal National Lifeboat Institute and it was very well attended. We were lucky to get a seat with a group of ladies who didn’t live too far away and we had a good talk about the surrounding area for an hour or so untill Leah had to head off to another engagement.
