At the last meeting Councillor were congratulating Cllr Charles Haworth for all his hard
work organising the Jubilee Party, I wonder if they knew he had just thrown large sums
of money to outside companies to do all the work. It seems he may have run a few trips
in his car to Poundland and Home Bargains, I am not sure if that warranted a standing 
ovation. I noticed he was out of bed before 6pm so that must deserve a little praise.
The lack of sleep was probably the reason for his disgusting behaviour in Cutts Close
days before the party.
