Mayor

Wycombe has little to distinguish it from any other English town these days. Except that it weighs the Mayor!



The idea is that by being weighed at the beginning and end of the year it can be established whether he/she has become fat at the expense of the townsfolk.

It's a fun tradition.

Yet there was a king who was weighed by God.

The writing was certainly on the wall for Belshazzar! And Daniel explained it.

Tekel: You are weighed in the balances, and are found wanting.

For all of us who lead, for all of us who live, that's not funny at all.
