Day One

Started my day on a building site on the Lower Ormeau Road in Belfast, following Margaret Ritchie on her first day as Social Development Minister. She toured the development, which should provide homes for nearly 200 families. At one point the snappers got her to stare down the barrel of a cement mixer - it should provide them with a novelty shot for the morning's papers.

Over at the Belfast Royal Academy the Education Minister Catriona Ruane was staring down a microscope, before disagreeing with some pro grammar school types on the merits of academic selection.

Nigel Dodds, meanwhile, has been mixing with robots. Not his DUP colleagues but the robotic research being conducted at a new centre at Magee College in Derry.

We should have more of this stuff over the coming days, before the honeymoon period gives way to the tough decisions which accompany attaining power
