Moray and Maps ...

Spent most of Saturday delivering leaflets and campaigning in Lossiemouth for Linda Gorn, the LibDem candidate at the Moray Scottish parliamentary by-election. A really nice day out although a long drive there & back. Campaign appears to be going well and judging by Saturday's "Scotsman", the Tory campaign is in meltdown - http://thescotsman.scotsman.com/scotland.cfm?id=572382006.

Spent a lot of Sunday on constituent concerns - lots of e-mails to Council Departments. This included travel cards (the new national entitlement card for elderly and disabled people) - or rather some constituents' lack of them, rehousing enquiries, two anti-social behaviour complaints and a concern about vermin being sighted on one street.

Pleased to see the City Council now publishing a West End Community Map and Information Leaflet (see
http://www.dundeecity.gov.uk/publications/westendleaflet.pdf) which is a really good new resource for the area - paper copies available by phoning Dundee 435803.
