Wow! Look who I met

I was in charge of the annual education services staff awards tonight in the city chambers. I had no idea that one of the award winner's partners was none other than Willie McIlvanney, famous Scottish novelist.

He had been my English teacher when I was in fifth year at school and I'd had the biggest crush ever on him!

Delighted to be able to introduce myself to him and have my picture taken with him. One thing less on my bucket list to do.
