No – not my new TV which arrives in 4 days (but who’s counting?). I was watching the news on TV tonight and there were two reports from spots within 100 yards of my office. The first was Tony Blair on the roof of the building right behind ours – a company which does solar panels. The second was from Waterloo station.
Ok, the cameras are always at Waterloo station whenever there is a strike ballot or other bad railway news, but I was momentarily pleased that the Prime Minister was within sight of our humble premises. Then I remembered that he only lives about a mile away anyway, so its not such a big deal.
Still I did bump into our MP at the church service in the evening. I took the opportunity of asking her about being a patron for the Citizens Advice Bureau’s 50th anniversary year. She only lives 4 doors away from us, but with her packed diary and my long-distance commuting I don’t actually see her that often except at just about every local event. (I am sure she has some clones because she really does seem to have the ability to be at every local function yet still have a fairly impressive attendance and voting record at parliament.)
