What has the chairman of Honiton and District Carnival been up to?

Robb Sleeman, the chairman of Honiton and District Carnival, got a tap on the shoulder while volunteering as a Games Maker at London 2012.

But it was not the police feeling his collar - it was a very special VIP.

That VIP had some words of praise for him.

Meanwhile, police officers patrolling the Olympic park were happy to pose for a picture with Robb.

Find out who the VIP was and what he had to say in this week’s Midweek Herald.
