Last word on Thursday's marathon ...Andrew Burns' forensic questioning of Marilyne Maclaren's written assertion that Labour had not provided a maintenance budget for schools exposed her breathtaking ability to dissemble...she had better watch...that is the second time she has been caught out in a downright fib and it's not just me who is counting...there had better not be a third...
Today, I am off to officially 'open' the refurbished Scotmid in Granton Road ...that should be fun...then off to PEP to catch up on missed work as a result of Council demands. It isn't always easy juggling time and this week I have dropped the ball...early starts and late finishes are catching up though.
And last night, the Irish Government's official St Patrick's Day celebration. Everyone who is anybody can, it seems, claim some kind of Irish heritage...judging by the number of people sporting shamrocks, that is. I ended up surrendering mine to Richard Holloway, retired Episcopalian Bishop of Edinburgh.
Apparently this year, the official St Patrick's date of 17th March coincides with one of the Easter holy celebrations which takes precedence over St Patrick's festival. As a result this was moved to the 15th...there you go: another piece of Elizabeth trivia
