A few hours in Scotland and what did I see.
Scotland is not a dull country.
I came across this photograph on twitter and it really spoke to me. a person who is not afraid to go out there and find a job, a person who is creative and a person who is not ashamed to be honest. She deserves to find a job. So maybe we can all forward this on and try and get her the visibility and job she deserves.
On a recent business trip I stayed at the Dalmahoy Marriott hotel, a pleasant hotel about 8 miles from the Edinburgh city centre. I ate my meal in the bar area, called Zest, where one might either have a drink or have a normal dinner. My choice was Cottage pie, allegedly ” traditional cottage pie”. The cost 14.95£ which for me is fairly high firstly for cottage pie and secondly for any meal in a kind of bar, that does not equate to Gastropub by any stretch of imagination. Please judge for yourself if this size portion is reasonable and feel free to pass this onto your friends too.
The plate is shown clearly and is a small dinner plate!
Kind of brave to do this and what fabulous photos! I would imagine that the sort of folks that did this would go cage diving with sharks too!
This 14 year old girl has been reported missing for a week now from Havant area. someone must know where she is. Please forward this on etc. you know what to do. 
Always difficult to predict but this year the music quality is exponentially better than in most previous years. Potential winners include the following but for me Azerbaijain have a special song and Netherlands a particularly haunting song,where their live semi-final version is much better than the pre-recorded version. Just enjoy
And Iceland will never win but just enjoy!
St Helena Chruch in Austerfield that sits on the border of South Yorkshire and Nottinghamshire is a small church sitting back from the main road almost hidden by a copse of trees. Inside the church is calm and beautiful and with a lovely mellow feeling not at all at the high end of religion . In short it looks a lovely place to worship. Where however it becomes unique is that William Bradford was baptised there around 1590 and he went on to become one of the most important figures of the 17th century by virtue of becoming one of the founding Pilgrim Fathers. Travelling over in the Mayflower to New England where he became Governor of the Pilgrim Colony.
On Bank holiday monday May 5th 2014 the church hosted an excellent art exhibition by a British artist Ann Wildgust.
