I can't say the same for the Education Department at Victoria Quay - probably only know one of the senior staff. So, it was really helpful to meet up with nearly 10 of the senior Education team today at Victoria Quay. I've always found that having a face to put to a name, picking the 'phone up and being frank with an issue with that person, can save dozens of pointless e-mails and letters that take you no further forward.
So here's hoping that this morning was time well spent - there was certainly a genuine sense of willingness to assist wherever feasible.
On a lighter note - it appears that City Chambers sausage rolls are shockingly NOT the worst in Scotland - that proud title now, without question, belongs to Victoria Quay sausage rolls ;-((Just look at that??
Some preparation later this afternoon for my first "Young Edinburgh" annual conference tomorrow. This was preceded by a dinner and ceilidh this evening ... dinner was good, and I decided not to spoil the young people's evening by saying anything, as it all seemed to be ticking along nicely. Ceilidh too was good fun - just stayed for a short while but it was clear that the floorboards were going to be creaking late into the night!
