West Hampstead Conservatives were out delivering letters in Lithos Road, NW3, warning residents about the planned re-development of 317 Finchley Road when they were approached by a resident asking if we were from the Residents Association.
Replying we were from West Hampstead Conservatives she replied 'you will do' as she had accidentally dropped her phone and keys in the recycling bin.
While faint hearts looked for a hook to retrieve them Joel Roberts @JoelKRoberts jumped into the re-cycling bin and saved the day. After the retrieval we were able to discuss the issue fully. Tonight (Thursday 20) we are out canvassing the Lithos area for their views on the proposed new block and Camden Council's planned changes to waste collection.
It amused local journalist Richard Osley enough to include the item in his local political blog.
Next time you see us out canvassing or delivering remember we are also added eyes and ears and willing to help!
