Yesterday afternoon I got a nip from a dog while out delivering leaflets.
No big deal you might think. Clean and disinfect the wound. Check that tetanus is up to date. Get on with life.
But it reminded me of a sign I saw posted up while I was out in Sierra Leone a few weeks ago running some training for the Westminster Foundation for Democracy.
There were a team of us from the Lib Dem, Labour and Conservative parties working with local council candidates from the SLPP, APC and PMDC to help them prepare for their local elections.
