POUNDING THE PAVEMENT FOR CHOICE UNLIMITED

Out in the West End today, distributing fliers and posters for REDP's forthcoming Choice Unlimited event. I lived in this part of town for four years (2006-10) and it strikes me as probably being the best area of the city for getting our colourful publicity material in front of people. I'm glad to say that most of those who accept a poster for their shop window actually put it up. The chap in Tin Drum Books (photo above) asks for additional copies, as he's the curator of the Bede Park community noticeboard. The owner of the shop below handed me a roll of sellotape and asked me to stick up the poster where I thought it would look best. I like those kinds of responses!

WEST END HIT

A couple of hours of tromping round the West End this afternoon, hand-delivering bunches of flyers for Inter Faith Week to various appropriate sites:

• Shree Jalaram Prarthana Mandal, Narborough Road
• Shree Jalaram Community Centre, Westcotes Drive
• Church of the Martyrs, Westcotes Drive
• Church of the Martyrs Community Hall, Westcotes Drive
• Leicester Westleigh Christadelphians, Westleigh Road
• Church of God of Prophecy, Fosse Road South
• Holy Apostles Parish Church, Fosse Road South
• Robert Hall Memorial Baptist Church, Narborough Road (photo above)

On Fosse Road South, I see my first domestic Christmas tree in the window of someone's house. Its the 14th of November.
