(Not) Smoke Filled Rooms

I was conscious this evening that a great deal of my time this week has been spent in small rooms talking or listening - from the Cabinet Rooms in London and Edinburgh to the meeting rooms of the Scottish Parliament where tonight we had a Parliamentary Group meeting which included a strong , and very positive, contribution from the Cabinet Secretary for Finance Derek Mackay

In addition as the nights continue to draw in - the clocks change on Sunday morning - the early morning and late evening meetings need lights, which sometimes creates interesting shapes and shadows.
