HI FOLKS
I have been away. August is a month in this town where most things come to a grinding halt, as it is the peak of the holiday season. I have been busy entertaing guests, be they friends or relatives, been up to London for a few days, and generally having a very pleasant time.
September is proving to be very different, full of committees, group meetings, fast approaching deadlines, and putting myself about a bit. I thought retirement was all about sitting back and being relaxed. Hell, no, but it makes life exciting and stimulating.
Thank you to all who took the trouble to answer my last piece about education, every comment is valued, and i will probably have a bit more to say when i am fully back in harness. I just need to think of some new contenscious (lovely word) subjects to raise, but I don't think I will have much trouble in that department, as there are several things that are raising my blood pressure at the moment.
Putting forward strong views does not, I hope, mean that I am some sort of self-opinionated loudmouth, but I do like to get a debate going, as it is only by hearing the views of other people that you advance your own thinking.
