Counting down the seconds for secondary applications
Families of Year 6 children in Kent who are going to start secondary school in September 2011 have just two weeks left to submit their application. The official closing date is Sunday 31 October. However, because of the October school holiday, Kent County Council will accept applications as 'on time' up until Friday 5 November.

Winning on Trident
The Liberal Democrats have long argued that Trident is an out of date, unnecessary and hugely expensive weapons system that the UK has no need of in modern times. In this period of fiscal constraint it is also a luxury we can ill afford. Nick Clegg was right to argue powerfully against Trident renewal during the Leader's Debates. Our party was right to stand in contrast to both the Conservatives and Labour on this issue.

Final Guide Centenary
Walking into a room at The Grand where 500 Brownies and Guides were waiting to celebrate the end of their Centenary Year, is ear piercing! High pitched squeals however, disappear to nothing as a ripple of raised hands signal that silence is required. No shouting or nagging, just a raised hand by one Guider is copied by the closest girls who remain silent whilst their hands are raised, and the room becomes silent within seconds. Amazing.

Folkestone History Society
We have known about the History Society since its early days as our friend, Charles Whitney, was the first Chairperson back in the mid 80's. Charles was invited to attend this event and so it was a real treat for us to meet again after a time apart.

Deal Civic Service
I am delighted to see that my 100th event is one that has dignity and style. The Mayor of Deal welcomed us into his 'home church' and we robed in the adjoining hall. The response to the invitations was high, and we all squashed into a small room to prepare ourselves and be dressed by Town Sergeants.
