Can this really be true?

BBC Scotland are reporting today (haven't seen it elsewhere?) that the tram works on Princes Street are only 'one week behind'?

... whilst I would very much welcome this, if true, I do find it optimistic (even by my standards!) to believe that 'everything' will now be fine and the original timeline will easily be adhered to??

Actually, if you read between-the-lines of the Council Leaders very guarded comments, I suspect those in charge know the reality of the situation.

I'd humbly suggest coming clean with the revised timetable, as soon as possible, would be eminently sensible - as otherwise, the whole media-saga of the last few weeks is going to be played out over-and-over again during the next couple of years.

Spot on, Andrew, I do agree as a tram supporter. Now... c'mon.. time for the Nigel Griffiths comments. As someone responsible for his selection all those years ago, (some choice we had!) I can't help a quiet smile at his predicament. Oooops - political calculations have gone awry! Couldn't happen to a nicer chap!
