If you want something done…
… ask a busy person. We’ve got a stall at the Angel Canal festival this Sunday and I’ve been contacting supporters to ask if they can help with cakes etc - amazing response. We now have Austrian plum cake coming from Archway, Japonica jam from Holloway, spice cake & ginger cake from Barnsbury; whatever the weather on Sunday, we certainly won’t starve.
After a session phoning residents (topics of discussion ranged from urban foxes to the role of the UN….), I dropped round the last of the Holloway deliveries to two of our regular helpers. One is a trained actress, preparing for running a course on public speaking; the other a local handyman, who tells me to meet him at the corner shop where he is doing some repairs (at 10 o’clock at night). Both are very busy yet both very happy to deliver Lib Dem leaflets in their neighbourhood.
Amazing people… we’re lucky to have them.
