scottish enterprise, scottish screen and channel 4 certainly share a common goal - to create, grow an… Continue

Sore Backs and Paper Backs

Once again I watched my 11 year old son take off to school with a rucksack that would best a circus strongman. There's been lots written about the detrimental long term effects on the posture and spines of young people lugging so much around. Why does this still happen?

I was playing around with one of the newest Sony e-readers, which got me thinking. You could probably fit every book needed for the entire 4-6 years of high school on one of these. Probably weighs less than a hardback novel.

At 5:50am on October 27, 2008, Ewan McIntosh said…: It's one and the same. There was a distinct shortage of drummers in Dunoon in 1993-5, when he asked me to join him and some pals for a just-for-fun band. But we were pretty good, really...

At 7:14pm on October 26, 2008, Ewan McIntosh said…: Wondering now if you also know Kenny (Kenneth) Clark who's got a studio not dissimilar to your own and who works at SE. We played in a band together when I was still at school and his wife was my German teacher.
