Great community effort and fun.
Had the great privilege yesterday to attend Blind Veterans D-Day Commemorative Lunch with John Maloney, Chair of Stoke Gifford Royal British Legion as my guest.
It was inspirational to meet so many D-Day and other veterans and hear about the work of this important charity.
This month saw the commemoration of the 75th anniversary of Operation Neptune, the Allied Forces’ landings at Normandy on D-Day, which led to the liberation of France and the defeat of the Nazis.
The most powerful and impactful things in the world can often be traced to their local roots. Behind all of the worthiest projects are dedicated people whose efforts stand invisibly behind to create something spectacular.
Had lunch today at All'angelo, the new Italian restaurant in Pilning.
The service was good and the welcome very friendly.
The food was excellent. I would really recommend it. Please support a great new local business.
Great to have a tour around The Wave by James and Craig.
This pioneering project will be the first surfing facility of its kind in the world right on our doorstep in Easter Compton.
Can't wait to see it open later this year I may even give it ago!
Visited the new Great Western Air Ambulance Base today in Almondsbury.
Great to see this fantastic essential service move forward; training future paramedics and using the most up to date equipment to provide us with expert lifesaving treatment when it is needed the most.
