Changes Afoot In Aberdeen
Train to Aberdeen this morning and struck by the changes underway around the station including the dismantling of the old bus station. The little row of decaying shops there never afforded the most beautiful entry point to this city, but it remains to be seen if the complex currently under construction will be an improvement.
Up to Beechgrove Terrace and a staff meeting followed by our monthly programme review board. This time were discussing Diggin Up Your Roots, The Outdoors Portal and the Tom Morton programme.
Talking about these last two things togther prompted the suggestion that Tom Morton with his passion for bicycles, should make a short film for the outdoors website offering hints and tips on different bikes. Similarly Bryan Burnett, a renowned marathon runner, could offer advice on the best footwear for runners.
Best idea of the day came from the music team who suggested that the the Take The Floor programme could develop an on-line guide to celidh dancing.
As someone who struggles with any dance more complicated than the Gay Gordon, I can see the attraction of an online guide.
Someone send for a Dashing White Sergeant!
