Festive messages

Thank you to everyone who has posted a comment so far on this blog.  I've been really pleased to see the thoughts of people I've not previously talked to, as well as those of some familiar faces. 

The response to the consultation survey has also been very encouraging.  Please make sure you take the time to complete it so that your views are included on all topics.

You may feel the need to escape the fun for a few minutes over Christmas and the New Year?!  If so, please do carry on posting your thoughts to me.  Although I'm not in the office, I will still be checking the site and will continue to publish your comments.

Finally, if anyone is up early on New Years Day (or perhaps if you haven't gone to bed yet), then I'd like to point you towards the Today programme on Radio 4.  As well as their usual batch of Christmas guest editors, a team of listeners will be taking the helm on Jan 1st.  The winning application was from a group of geographers who promise to locate the 'G' spot (G for geography) of all items featured.  They are also currently involved in a campaign to raise the profile of geography in the media and to increase awareness of the importance of geography in the 21st century.

Have a merry and spatially aware Christmas!
