Deputy Sam Mézec: The Future of Jersey's Honorary System

http://sammezec.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-future-of-jerseys-honorary-system.html

Tuesday, 11 August 2015. The Future of Jerseys Honorary System. Last night at the Town Hall I proposed Geraint Jennings for election to the office of Procureur du Bien Public of St Helier. The job of a Procureur is to look after ratepayers money better than they would their own. They are also able to deputise for the Constable in his or her absence. The role is honorary and they receive no payment for their services, merely the gratitude of a grateful public for their service. I stress that he is not a R...

A “retcon” is described as follows: (in a film, television series, or other fictional work) a piece of new information that imposes a different interpretation on previously described events, typically used to facilitate a dramatic plot shift or account for an inconsistency. It’s worth noting the words of John Boothman in last night’s JEP: “At the Treas...The assistant m...

http://tonymusings.blogspot.com/2015/08/st-simons-church-changes-in-1973-part-2.html

Random thoughts, poems, jottings, and as it says, musings. About anything and everything! Thursday, 6 August 2015. St Simon's Church - The Changes in 1973 - Part 2. In 1973, St Simon's ceased to exist as a separate Parish, although some services were still held there. Here is the Dean's Letter in "The Pilot" in which he explains what is happening, and why. It is interesting that it was St James Church which became part of the Jersey Arts Centre, when it too closed down. After opening the Synod with praye...

http://tonymusings.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html

Random thoughts, poems, jottings, and as it says, musings. About anything and everything! Friday, 31 July 2015. Lee Henry's replies on the Waterfront Development. Recently Lee Henry (of the States of Jersey Development Company) has been posting some information on Facebook and hence in the public domain. As Facebook has an annoying habit of retaining information, but gradually sinking it out of view on the Timeline, I thought it would be useful to have this reposted here on my blog as a reference source.
