The Joys of Knocking on Doors

Just to say thanks to everybody I met on the doorstep today when out canvassing.
I'm always amazed just how many people really like to see you and how friendly everyone is - think it might be something to do with Widnes folk - or is it the chemicals - or even the Green Party!!!???

You really discover things about the area and in a funny way start feeling more a part of it. Its a pity its not a deep seated cultural thing this knocking on the door of a neighbour/resident you don't know and getting to know them - canvassing for a political party is perhaps one of the few things left that provides a passport for this activity as people generally find it acceptable

So if anyone would like to experience this and supports us (well maybe not even that) give us a shout.

Thanks again

Derek
