UFA endorsement

   I did receive the firefighters endorsement making me the only candidate who has been endorsed by the Police, firemen and retired firemen. I worked as a news photographer alongside these men & women for more than 31 years and I have great respect  for the work they do. I am proud to receive their endorsement.

Ryans Wake

    I held a fundraising reception at Ryan's Wake on Wednesday and it was well attended. I want to thank Chris Ryan for his support and help and Francesca, who provided food. It was a good evening and brought out several supporters who had been unable to attend other events. Thank you to all.
   It was a good week at Ryan's Wake as it was the location for a film on Monday. The period piece features "Legs" Diamond in a saloon, which will be a backdrop to an interview with William Kennedy telling  "Prohibition Stories". Chris Ryan and his brother Matt were both in the film. I shot still images and had a great time. The WMHT production crew was first rate and really captured the atmosphere of the bar.
