Oakham Town Council Parks and Planning Committee 25th February 2015 Agenda

I collected the agenda from the Town Council Today the Clerk felt like
doing some work today.

He appears to be currently suffering from an aversion to light.

He has also lost his voice, handing me the agenda without speaking a word.

The word ignorant comes to mind.
