Do you put yourself in a position where you are likely to meet him/her?
Are you involved in the community - do you attend events in the electorate where he/she is likely to attend?
I speak to mine maybe four or five times a year and he or is office always respond to my very occasional emails.
My member is the current Speaker and last time I spoke to him I asked him if he ever sleeps, he was at an award ceremony the day after parliament had closed.
