Hi plumbob good to see you hope you are keeping out of trouble. That sculpture is fantastic such a sad day even sadder in my area the local council refuse to allow our mp to lay a wreath today of all days politics should be set aside 😞

[Plumbob in reply to onamission]

I'm always in trouble with someone, onamission (normally the wife!!!)

Which council is refusing the MP to lay a wreath and why ??? I hope it's not political correctness gone mad -Disgusting

Hope you keeping well as possible?

take care

Owen

glad to hear your wife keeps you in check 😆. Our council is labour run and the mp is a Tory so sad they couldn't put there differences aside for this sad day

[Magpuss in reply to onamission]

That's disgraceful, how do such small minded people ever find their way into positions of authority.

[Time_2_drink in reply to onamission]

That is absolutely shocking childish and beggars Belief that politics are brought into the act of remberance appalling Behaviour .

[onamission in reply to Time_2_drink]

I agree time_drink it has been tradition that the MP lays the wreath but sadly not this time so sad they can't put politics behind them just for one day
