If you cannot mould yourself entirely as you would wish, how can you expect other people to be entirely to your liking?

Busy Saturday

I had a busy day yesterday.

In the morning I went along to Lavenham Library to present the prizes for the summer reading competition.  The children, who had all read at least six books during the summer holidays, received certificates and a medal each.  They all appeared pleased, but seemed to enjoy spending time on the computer rather more than listening to me.


In the afternoon I was very pleased to be asked to attend the opening of the wonderful skatepark in Bildeston.  A good many residents turned out to watch the Chairman of the Parish Council, Andrew Gutteridge, pictured below,  cut the red ribbon.  I had not realised that it is possible to use scooters and roller skates in addition to traditional skateboards on the park.  This means that children of all abilities can be accommodated and that they can progress from easier to more difficult equipment in time.

It was clear that a good number of Bildeston children have already become very skilled, and that the facility will be much used.
