A Warm Welcome

After 2 years of on-line friendship, it was great to meet up with Margaret and her husband Jack over the weekend. It was an interesting experience to finally meet someone you “know” a bit about, for the “first” time.

There was lots of comparing blogging and ICT implementation between Australia and Scotland, explaining how things are done in the two countries, and sharing frustrations regarding filtering, time and top-down expectations.

As well as lots of talking there was ample eating (including my first taste of haggis, neeps and tatties – yum,yum) and celebratory champagne to wash it all down.

Add many photos, a trip to the Falkirk Wheel and promises of meeting up again during the week, and the wonderful afternoon came to an end.

Thanks Margaret and Jack for your hospitality, kindness and welcome to Scotland.

  1. It was wonderful meeting up – eventually.

    It was great to meet you (and Gail!) in person and have a real f2f conversation. Thanks, too, for letting me ‘shadow’ you both on some of your visits.

    I’m also going investigate the work you’ve been doing on the Games2Learn wiki.

    I hope you enjoy the rest of your time in the UK 🙂

    Sorry I’m so late in commenting on your post … edublogs problems seem to be sorted now?
