Agreed - and yes Ms Woods, feel free to opine again on VV as a 'regular' person, rather than a candidate!

There is a question, and maybe Rob and others who ran for Victoria council, or other municipalities (Corey?) can chime in. Knowing the hours of commitment, and public exposure issues, did the pay scale offered if you were elected influence your decision to run?

I was just being very silly. I tend to think this is a place where I can let down my guard and be playful. But thanks for the reminder that not everyone "gets" my humour. For those who don't, please know that I was simply making light of Cara and Bernard's posts above about the negatives of serving in local office. Tongue in cheek more then cavalier.

This was a major event in my life - and I did take it very seriously.
I worked hard and hoped to get onto council, of course. I would have been as honoured to have been elected as I was to get the VV endorsement.

Sometimes humour is a good form of release. Better then crying.

Gotcha;)

Gotcha;)

Opps.

So much for me having a sense of humour.
Now I owe you one...

Yeah. I'm soooooo glad I didn't get in!!

While it was an educational experience - and losing set me back a few days - and three boxes of cherry chocolates - I'm glad to be back in my private little (safe) world.

By the way, I'm on a job search and if anyone hears of anything to do with sales/ marketing/ media/ retail sales/ or knows a family who wants a memoir book done of a grandparent (I do the interviews, writing, and book layout with captioned pictures etc) ... please let me know. Bascially I'm pretty open to anything besides being a parking commissioner or elvis impersonator or local politician.

-------- What about Rodger's Chocolates ----------

maybe they need a taster ...?

After 3-box's of chocolate-cherry's ,,, you probably know what chocolate tastes like ...!

Ps, I wouldn't mention the 3 boxes chocolate-cherry's ... ( or is that chocolate-cheer-ies )
