It is less common in the north east where the glittering riches of clever people in Aberdeen have created a world city of renown. I would consider it an act of treachery if a member of my staff moved to lick milk with the fat cats in London - we can do real planning here and push figs around lunch plates!<br /><br />Dave TDave Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07126276659405323722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2904516735486360825.post-37982967008474720312013-10-21T20:52:24.073+01:002013-10-21T20:52:24.073+01:00I'm surprised at your criticism of the BUFTY-a...I'm surprised at your criticism of the BUFTY-award winning 'Planning' magazine, Dave.<br />It almost persuaded me and many others to up sticks and become an agent of the southern investment fraternity, pushing overpriced figs around a lunch plate while destroying communities and calculating the value of the day's house price rise.<br />That's REAL planning.....as you should well know.<br />Richard Heggienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2904516735486360825.post-69427323348084586322013-10-21T17:57:18.575+01:002013-10-21T17:57:18.575+01:00Hello there Richard

She's a fine looking woman isn't she and it's good that Wee Alex is no longer Wee Fat Alex. We need inspiring leadership from the Institute but we are not getting it. Weight is an issue so planners should try the Beyonce diet but greed and stupidity may be involved too.<br /><br />Yours in planning<br /><br />Dave TDave Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07126276659405323722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2904516735486360825.post-80872480148212024952013-10-20T21:13:29.912+01:002013-10-20T21:13:29.912+01:00I see Beyonce has taken up the Alex Salmond diet w...I see Beyonce has taken up the Alex Salmond diet with some success - do you think planners should do the same?Richard Heggienoreply@blogger.com
