Hello there, lovely readers.
I hope you are keeping well and enjoying our summer? What do you mean, you missed it? It was that Saturday the other week. You know, the day where you got sunburnt because you weren’t expecting it!
But seriously, ever the optimist, I’m keeping everything crossed that as June comes in, we start to see the summer we all deserve and need.
And of course, there’s the General Election on the 4th July (you can’t have escaped that, right?). Wouldn’t it be the best day if it turns out to be a bright, sunny July day and all the voters come out to vote in their droves. AND the right party is elected to power.
Talking of the General Election, just to let you know, I’ll be manning a polling station as a polling clerk somewhere in Cheshire East (exact location tba, currently) This will be my 5th time of manning a polling station and I have to say, it’s a privilege to help the people of Cheshire cast their vote. Daft I know, but I love seeing all the different types of people come out to vote and often you get to hear some of their stories. And the best scenario is the young, first time voter, clutching their polling card (which, incidentally, you don’t need to bring with you) who wanders in looking embarrassed and bewildered not having a clue what to do. I usually leave the desk and walk up to them, and have a quiet, discreet word with them to help guide them along the process.
Anyhow, I digress. I wanted to talk about time (and time management at this point in our lives) in this issue.
