LAST night I attended Up Holland Parish Council's annual assembly held at the Community Meeting Room, Hall Green.
Such events can be a bit hit and miss and I was therefore pleasantly surprised by the number of people who attended and who took part in the debate.
It was also nice to see community stalwart Arthur Tennant officially receive his honorary citizenship. It's the first time the parish council has done this and it's well-deserved.
The occasion also allowed colleagues to pay tribute to Arthur, and there were many funny tales exchanged about his time on the council. There's a full report about it in tomorrow's Skelmersdale Advertiser.
Unfortunately, there wasn't enough space in the paper to mention the excellent slices of fruit cake and tea they served after the meeting... perhaps I'll save that for a future edition.
