Bring Me The Head Of Radio Scotland

Jeff Zycinski | 21:03 UK time, Tuesday, 7 October 2008

I was up well before dawn this morning and hurtling down the A9 as fast as you can when you're stuck behind a timber lorry for most of the way. I was on my way to Alva Academy to help launch our new SoundTown project. What with the today's rail strike I figured the roads would be busier than usual, but I made such good time that I actually pulled into the Little Chef car park for a twenty minute kip. I still got to the school in plenty of time, unlike the crew from Pacific Quay who told me they got lost because their SatNav device went into a huff.

Anyway the launch went well. The school sits in a stunning location at the foot of the Ochils and the pupils and staff seem really keen on the partnership with us over the next year. It's all about allowing the local community to get as much as they can from the diverse departments within our organisation.

Some things are easy to achive. Today I asked one bright young lad if he would record the material for the latest videoblog. "Just point the camera at my head," I told him, "and I'll witter at you for a couple of minutes."

And, well, that's what happened...
