You may find this hard to believe, but MJ Diary was not always a dashing local government newshound. No sir! Once upon a time, it was all local newspaper reporting – and there are still scars to prove it (You told me that was a shark bite – Ed.)
Every once in a blue moon, Diary still gets misty-eyed about the days of covering diamond wedding anniversaries and parish council meetings, so one was particularly heartened to read this gem from the South Wales Evening Post: ‘Llwchwr Town Council has decided to stack its new welfare hall tables differently to see whether it would prevent them being damaged.'
