hmmmm missed a day of blogging!
But here I am in Norway.

Sunday night I went to bed at 4 am because I was on a roll with prep for this week. I create bespoke slide shows with the Apple Mac 'Keynote' which is like the powerpoint thing - only not.
This keynote rocks.

Last night I crept into bed at 4am again - this time in Norway, in the Folk High School which now feels like home. loveitloveit
Oyvin met me at the Airport and we missed the ferry which meant we had to wait till 3.30 for the next one! .............. a.m. - that is.

I left London town, Romford City, four and a half hours before my flight time.
Gatwick bound in thrashing rain.
Terrible weather in the London area - sunny here wow.
I have never been here without the snow - but can see it clearly on the mountains when I was flying in - so beautiful.

Gatwick Airport. SAS, Scandinavian Airlines, to Alesund, then to Ulsteinvik. Place it in Google earth and you see the world spin and it will take you down to here - Ulsteinvik. I will wave.

Nearly went to Bergen.
I was given a boarding card 'Nigel Wilson' - just spotted it in time .......... I lurve Bergen too.


Last week en I flew into Belfast, the week-end before - driving to Bristol ....... here now and London in-between. Cultures, needs, gifts ....
The switch of cultures and groups is a challenge and ........ I loveitloveit ......

Bought two sets of 'in ear' headphones at the duty free shop. I wear them out. One Denon, one Altec Lansing. What a programme I listened to on the flight. Gilles Peterson again. Look for Charlie Dark. He is on my blog PiPhone - look for a song called 'Prayers for angry young men'. Play it - hear the lyrics - fantastic.
He is a poet and works in schools with hard to reach young humans. This song feels like it too.

So here I am.
I will be blogging.
I will offer 100% of all I have.
My education will be used - I have been schooled in the 'University of Vulnerability'.
I will need it all.

I believe that vulnerability is a unit of beauty.
You are beautiful.
