All go again

Been a very busy week indeed.

Monday I had a seat fitting in the Formula Ford racecar that I have been kindly lent to do testing in.

Was rather nevous that the clutch would be to hard to push with my bad leg put the engineer and a friend who races in the British GT Championship explained the method for racecar control is not as hard as I throught.

Was at a reception on tuesday night for the Norwich North Bye-election campaign some of the people there did not seem pleased to see me and serveral Gibson supporters even refused to shake my hand.

On wednesday had the fun of Chairing a Council meeting which was good and manged to get through the adoption of a Child Protection and Vulnerable adults policy.

Thursday was also a busy day as I attended the Building Britian's future event at Cambridge Guildhall and talked with the Chancellor about tax breaks for career changers wanting to do training and education.

Also spoke in the debate about the need for UK to create wealth by becoming a world leader in innovative engineering solutions.
