June 1st Friday Josephine returned back home from her last appointment. We normally eat out on this night and we chose the Indian Restaurant in town this time. As usual a wonderful meal and service. After that we went to the Royal Lion to finish off the evening met some friends and spent the rest of the evening with them.
June 5th Tuesday I went to London all day to attend a meeting of the National Association of Local Councils. This was for a meeting of the National Executive of which I am a member being Chairman of the Policy committee . I am also the representative of NALC on the Government committee looking into the state of the country's churchyards and future burial laws. Details are available on the web and also I have put in small report to Council for guidance in the case of people who want to know more.

June 2nd Saturday Went to the Marine Theatre in the morning . The meeting was called VOLUNTEERS FOR LYME. Organised by the Marine Theatre,Town Mill and the Museum who have an immediate and on-going need for extra volunteers to help in three vital areas. It is something that I strongly support with all the many people who attended. John Bartholomew.
Marine Theatre,Godfrey Thomas Town Mill ,Ken Gollop Museum and Oliver Letwin our local MP also supported the project and all spoke very strongly in its favour.
The coffee and bits were also excellent!

Nice to meet old friends once again and hear one or two sing.
In the afternoon I went to watch the annual football match with the French side Cruelly that they play every year. A good match unfortunately the visitors won. In the evening they are all dining at the Bye the Bay restaurant I would not like to bet on who is going to win that one.! I was given the privilege of starting the game by kicking off from the centre circle. I was pleased I actually hit the ball and it moved . The old left foot still knows what to do! You see what football lost all those years ago. Comments to the Sun please. Report of the match and evening will no doubt be in the Local Press.

June 10th Sunday I attended St Michaels Church Lyme Regis at the annual service for the Council and the towns people. You see me here on the left talking to our Legion President Cecil Quick.Natalie Spiller sang the solo verse during communion with great aplomb and the Town Band gave there usual solid performance to accompany the hymns. I was also impressed with the choir nice to hear them . Our vicar must take a lot of credit for the organisation on this morning .Some chap played the organ it was my impression that with a bit more practice he might do well . What do I know ! By the way trust the renovations go well John I will see you on Saturday 30th June Josephine will be there if she is home. Sorry about the picture some one keeping me in the dark again ? Do we know who ?
