West Kent Towers has been buzzing all day with envelope writers - in total 32 people in 4 hour shifts with eight people per shift. In fact, the evening shift are still here. It was a bit chaotic at times when shifts changed, especially as most helpers came early - but between us we have hand written 8,000 envelopes! Whether anyone will be able to read the addresses is another matter.
Just as the Romans kept the crowds onside with Bread and Circuses, so we provided Tea and Buns. In fact, so many buns were consumed I had to replenish stocks at 3pm!
It's quite amusing how campaigning (like so much else in life) is cyclical. I remember the deep joy 25 years ago when word processing made envelope writing redundant. Here we are, a generation later, hand writing again!
So a big thank you to the workers - here is the late afternoon shift, hard at work.
