Interesting list of amendments for Tertiary Education and Training (Funding and Governance) (Scotland) Bill. wonkhe.com/wonk-corner/...

A lovely and unexpected start to the week. I left for my walk in the rain, stormy clouds above, but ever hopeful it would improve. The sun did just manage to break through for just a few moments. Glastonbury Tor this morning, about half an hour after sunrise.
