A quick catch-up...

You can't do it on the streets with leaflets in your hands. You can't do it on the doorstep. You can't do it when you're standing up giving a speech. And you certainly can't do it in a public meeting.

In fact, there are not that many occasions when you can blog. To be honest, I've been meaning to start this blog for ages, but have found so much to do that sitting down at the computer to talk about what I've been doing has taken second fiddle to actually doing it. But now the July skies have opened and drenched us with a little bit of February, it seems the perfect excuse to sit down at the computer and not go out.

So what have I been up to for the last few months since I was selected as your Conservative Candidate? I'll give you a brief run-down of my main campaigns and I'll keep giving you installments over the next few weeks - as well as keep you up to date with what I'm doing at the moment. Some you might find interesting, some you might find dull, some of it may even sound nauseatingly political. But I hope that overall, you find it stimulating and that I will be able to give you a glimpse of the work I'm doing for Bristol North West, and that you will be able to give me an idea of what you think.

best,

Charlotte
