Recent activities ...

* Last night, I attended the Blackness Primary School Parent Council meeting at which, in addition to planning for the school's fete on 11th June, we discussed a number of issues including the need for 'zig zag' no parking markings adjacent to the school.   I have again raised this matter with the City Council's Head of Transportation.

* Later last night, I attended the River Crescent Residents' Association meeting.   We had a useful discussion about a number of local matters including a local water leak issue (I have raised with Scottish Water), road safety locally and pathway access to the soon to be opened Riverside Nature Park.

* The Courier this morning published Dundee councillors' allowances and expenses totals for 2010/11.   My LibDem colleague Helen Dick and I again have the lowest claims, claiming no expenses at all and maintaining a salary cut that we have taken since April 2009.
