As stated earlier, I've been to many afternoon meeting or matinee theatre trips to London, and returned home the same day.

I wonder what time the launch took place, and what benefits we can actually expect by having two representatives from the borough at this launch?

I hope the nibbles in Downing Street were worth it.
