Annual assembly and an award

A leisurely day today. I wasn’t due in town until later in the afternoon, so spent the morning watching the snooker and putting in the final software updates for the escape room. At the library after school, I held the regular Dursley Code Club. A good attendance today with 6, and a few trying out python for the first time. In the evening I went down to the annual Dursley Town Assembly held at the Chantry Centre. This is always a good opportunity to catch up with a few people I know around the town, as well as hearing the latest updates of what’s going on. The last item on the agenda was to hand out some awards to people in the community. I was surprised, and somewhat embarrassed to hear my name read out, along with a citation for work I’d done on Discover Dursley and some other projects recently. It’s no exaggeration to say there were plenty in that room who should be in line for an award ahead of me.But I was delighted and honoured to accept a 2026 Leslie D. Gale award for service…
