The Game of Kids

News that pupils from Rauceby Primary School are to start lessons at Leadenham Polo Club led Stephen Phillips to pay a visit last week to see whether the game of kings really has made itself accessible to lesser mortals. Shown round by proprietor and local entrepreneur, James Reeve, Stephen had the opportunity to see some of the facilities on offer to youngsters and the glitterati alike before lending a hand around the yard. "It's great for the local area that James has started this business," Stephen said, "and fantastic that he's giving young people the opportunity to try the sort of things which I never had access to at school." Politics and complaints about the government are never far away for Stephen at the moment however, "I'm just as snowed under by overregulation as every other business at the moment," James noted. "I've made clear to Stephen that if there's a change of government, we're all expecting things to get much better."
