Well I got here despite the most awful journey to the airport
I got to Cambridge quite early so checked out where the theatre is for tomorrow and went up to kettles yard.
After that I walked back to the pub.
Really enjoyed themeet and then came to hotel for a sleep and to read the papers

I cant remember how much I said last night
I went to Armistead Maupin ( and bought his most recent book). I then met Lizzie and took her for a celebration meal which was lovely.
We walked back to the hotel and she got a taxi from there
I slept until 6.15 and got up and got the tube to Hyndland ASC to see the work that won the award. It was fab and I took loads of photos.
We got a taxi to the conference. It was really good and I knew loads of people and chatted a lot about Play First.
Afterwards I went to a cafe in Princes Sq and sat and did some marking over a cup of tea.
I then went and treated myself to the candle from Jo Malone that I have wanted for ages and also a hankie from Vivienne Westwood. The packaging in both cases is super. I think I will keep them wrapped up and give them to myself at Christmas.
Met Marian and went to the Spanish restaurant that we went to last year and then I caught the train back to Stirling and drove home
I am very worried about getting away as the snow is so bad.

Im so chuffed as I have got an interview for the OU.
Have done all the things I said i would do and now need to go and pack.
I am still feeling really stressed despite having done everything on my list. This is ridiculous. The only change to my plan is that I am now going to drive as far as Stirling and leave the car there. It gives me more choice on trains both today and tomorrow night
Took Finn for a walk on The Inch. Boy it was cold.

Back to Stirling
Posted Nov 24, 2010
I've got a morning at home which is good as I won't be home until 10pm
I will take Finn for a walk or two and do some marking I think. I've worked out which work I will take to Glasgow and Cambridge. I will also get all my things ready for each trip. Minimal packing in both cases.
I need to go to town to get coffee for Marian as well.
