Many great things would never have been achieved if their true insanity had been realised beforehand :)

Thanks! Good to see Australia isn't the only place with a cultural cringe, and on that point, that Homecoming Scotland video is no worse than this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yRIIxRQjmbk
Okay, maybe it is.

I’ve actually turned into a proud IT-geek over this whole audio-visual sources business. But I do feel increasingly strongly that, in my areas, there is such a wealth of primary material now available that we must harness it. It’s simply a case of learning how to collate it in one place. That is very time-consuming (but addictive and good fun) – and I am getting faster.

Btw, I added the ‘Homecoming Scotland’ post through the heavily-gritted teeth of the ‘Scottish cultural cringe’. I had to resist the temptation to ask ‘would this make you come “home”, or would it make you more likely to leave?’

Congratulations on submitting The Thud.
