Yesterday evening I helped the Mayor entertain a group of cub scouts from Wraysbury at the Guildhall. His worship ran a mock council meeting and I tried to explain why we have a town crier in the borough.
Today a friend emailed to say thanks because her two kids were part of the group and they had apparently had a fantastic time.
However, when she questioned them they still didn’t have a clue what either the mayor or town crier actually do.
