Newcastle-upon-Tyne

I've just been there. It was perishing cold. That's it really.


I've also been to the 138th Annual General Meeting of the Leeds Building Society. I was surprised by how many people turned up; or at least I was until the rush for the free sandwiches began even before the chair had declared the meeting over. One thing that didn't surprise me was how inarticulate most speakers from the floor were even when they had a good point to make. Nor, I suppose, was I entirely shocked by how the concept of mutuality doesn't actually mean that members are allowed to run things.
