Wrapped Up
A day spent delivering present to relatives and wrapping up more for tomorrow. On the car journey across Glasgow we listened to One Night in Cardiff, a really moving documentary about Jock Stein, followed by On Thin Ice, which was a fascinating insight into the selection controversy surrounding the women's Olympic curling team. It's a sport I played once - just once - while based at the ´óÏó´«Ã½ in Selkirk. My technique was all wrong and I crashed my knees off the ice every time I threw a stone. I was black and blue for a fortnight.
A friend who was doing some last-minute Christmas Shopping tells me that singer Michelle McManus features in a new book based on the TV series You Are What You Eat. In it Michelle tells of her day in Wick, as a star guest on the Radio Scotland series Let's Do The Show Right Here. The new series begins in January.
