Easter Time

Bit of a lull over Easter, but since I last blogged I attended an extra Council meeting solely to appoint Head of Corporate Sevices.  This was quite interesting, especially being on an ‘interview panel’ potentially 72 strong!

Some years back I was very involved in LASA,

the local credit union, and recently felt that the time was right to renew my aquaintance.  Hence I have gone back on the board, and since then attended the AGM and my first board meeting.  I do feel both very desperate and very angry about people being conned by firms like Wonga – personally I think their TV adverts should be banned!  So I’m hoping that by being involved again I can actually do something practical to help.  Tackling payday loan companies is definitely top of my list.

Also went to the shortest council meeting on record, for me at least – unavoidably late but only by a couple of minutes and they had already got to AOB!!!
