Pitfall of your colleague's holiday!

Helen, my sister in law but also council colleague (Dundee City Councillor for Strathmartine Ward) is on holiday so I am covering her constituent concerns as well as my own at the moment .. so I have spent a fair bit of the day on complaints about leaking roofs in Kirkton, road repairs in Downfield, you get the idea ...
That said, lots of West End issues on the go - parking, pavements (eg flooding at entrance to Pinegrove), overgrown trees in Saggar Street, and a controlled entry issue in Peddie Street - to name a few.
Currently delivering a new newsletter to Logie, Pentland, Blackness and Ancrum areas - lots delivered last night but rather rained out tonight! Will upload soon. Lots of responses from residents already.
Lastly, really useful meeting of West End Christmas Week Group committee earlier this week (which I chair) - you can read the agenda on West End Community Council website by clicking headline above - Christmas Week 2006 looking really good!
