A snow filled day
Despite the heavy snow lying all over East Renfrewshire today has been another busy day locally, starting with a meeting with local Police Chief Ciorstan Shearer for a special Question and Answer session. Local residents had submitted a variety of questions on local policing and it was great of Superintendent Shearer to take time out her busy day to answer them. Then it was off to a “Tea with your MP” event I had organised at the Fairweather hall in Newton Mearns. It was good opportunity to catch up with local residents in an informal way.
Lunch was stop off at a local Heath shop in Clarkston, The Granary which is soon celebrating its 25th anniversary in business. It’s a wonderful achievement and is a part of the local community.
Next was a catch up on my casework before another “Tea with you MP” event at the Bourock Parish Church in Barrhead. I had a quick visit to a local pensioner who is having problems with Virgin Media and I plan to take this up with Virgin. Then it was my weekly surgeries.
Another busy, snow filled but very worthwhile day. You will find more info on the above at the news section. As always leave comment and let me know your views.
