Erratum

Evelyn:

Possibly the Minister, whose own government will soon be facing the electorate, felt it advantageous to mingle with Aurora's 'power structure', while it lasts, in order to meet and greet, kiss and shake, some of those whose votes will be solicited when his turn comes.

A fundamental rule, and particularly so in politics, is never break an appointment without at least calling well in advance to apologize with full explanation and in the course of so doing establish another appointment date, possibly for double the time of the first.

No politician who is considered successful, and mormac certainly do not fall into this category, will go out of his or her way to offend any person who might one day render or return a favour.

The Minister did show up eventually.

Escorted  by the Mayor.

He just  wasn't there at 6.30p.m.

He was at the Culture Centre meeting with the Mayor and  Select Friends . On the same  night he was scheduled to attend the Formal Opening of Library Week  in Aurora

Sorry.... I didn't make that clear.
