Not the sort of format for the Co-op Party I'd envisaged but a successful evening. A few slight technical difficulties getting the DVD to play but it didn't matter in the end - the audience had come to see the 1993 Bye-Election - 30 minutes of nostalgia even though some of them would only be about 10 years old back then. Photo is a screen grab of Peter Wheeler, a legendary Labour Party worker in these parts - there is even an Appreciation Society on Facebook for him. I usually enjoy the few Co-op Party meetings we have in the year. Business is short and snappy, there are always refreshments, everybody talks to each other and then we go to the pub.
