Reg Gage organises Scouts' spring recruitment drive.

After over 40 years of leadership, Reg has proven himself to be the best man to promote the new Phoenix Explorer Scout Unit in Sterling Walk.

The doubtful future of the unit was allayed when he stepped in to lead the group saying, "I didn't want the boys to be lost from scouting because we could've packed up altogether and that would've been a real shame."

Ahh Surbiton eh. A place of tranquility and wonder!!

I wonder which poor unfortunate loser the Tories will put up against Ed Davey at the next election. Don't know why anyone would bother really, there'll never be a Tory elected around here!!!!!!!

This is Liberal country and don't forget it!!!!!!

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a load of losers!!!!! :twisted:

Surbiton Winds of change!

19 years ago...

Well the Lib Dems won didnt they, and Labour won the national election and will win the next one under Mr Brown!

It's a very satisfying era for people like me. For years, absolutely years and years, decades even, I had to suffer as did many others snobbish selfish and uncaring conservative politicians ruling the roost both here in Surbiton, and on our Council and also in Westminster without being able to do a thing about it at any level.

Well NOW, for the last NINE years and counting, it's been my turn and my friends turn to be part of the "establishment ruling class" and your turn to be considered the militant right wingers, the whingers and windbags, who want to destroy our centre left way of life!!!!!!!!!!!!!
