The Allotment Speech
Jed began taking his councillor duties more seriously — especially green spaces.
He gave a ten-minute speech about marrows and social cohesion. It was quoted in full in the parish magazine. One councillor wept. Another mistook it for satire. Jed just wanted a bench.
Mmm... did that actually happen?
Friends uploaded some pictures:-)

In January 2001, Jed, Ruth, Dennis and I joined together to watch the USA Inauguration of Bush Jr ("Shrub") on TV. We had bubbly, but also slippers to throw at the TV screen.
Throwing slippers at anyone in Iraq was the highest of insults.
