Leaflets in the rain...., Magdalen Green again


Spent a glorious morning in the rain (actually it wasn't that heavy) helping my colleague Helen deliver her ward newsletter in Strathmartine (Kirkton & Downfield). She's enlisted a good few local people to help and I was amazed how quickly it got done, so free this afternoon much to my amazement!

So spent a bit of the afternoon dealing with constituent queries & chasing up e-mails. In particular, sent another request to Leisure & Communities asking that the churned up north edge of Magdalen Green (pictured!) - damage done by vehicles - gets filled in & tidied up. Thanks to Shahbaz Majeed (Yaadein - PhotoBlog -

A few further issues include refuse collection in part of Perth Road and "boy racers" problem in parts of City Centre (helpful reply from the Police on this one). Also had a response from Planning & Transportation about missing bus shelters in Perth Road. And response re complaint about another utility "repair" - this time at Seabraes Lane.
