The Man with the Fanny Pack’s Mission Impossible
Once upon a time a high heid yin from East Lothian was called upon to accompany five beautiful, highly intelligent, vivacious, drop dead gorgeous, head teachers on their journey to excellence. Despite his small goods, Don chose to accept this mission and he began to impart his passion and wisdom surrounding the mysterious world of blogging at Glasgow airport departure lounge. To ensure a sense of belonging, Don issued top of the range celtic toories to establish open source leadership (WHIT?).
His relentless nagging (hold on to that - write it down, write it down!) of these five beautiful, highly intelligent, vivacious, drop dead gorgeous, head teachers on their journey to excellence, ensured that they blogged and reflected and blogged and reflected and blogged and reflected and blogged so much that they got blogged off!
Don is a net worker par excellence. During a visit down under to the Charles, Don’s ingenious non verbal communication skills (sign language) impressed the international audience so much that they have been used frequently in all lectures. In addition his entrepreneurial skills have funded his remaining stay in the Big Apple. (Has he mentioned Broadway!?). Who else could have been in charge of the kitty?
Don peerie goods introduced the five beautiful, highly intelligent, vivacious, drop dead gorgeous, head teachers on their journey to excellence to raspberry martinis, purple rain, Fred and Gingers and the world of fine dining – they did draw the line at sushi!
Upon reflection as the five beautiful, highly intelligent, vivacious, drop dead gorgeous, head teachers on their journey to excellence neared the end of their journey they realised that they had learned the importance of invitational/ distributed/ adaptive/ collaborative/ reflective/ open source/ instructional/ value added/ blogging leadership and the impact this will have on their return.
Don’s girls would like to say thank you for this CPD experience.

Don I have just discovered this on your blogroll and want to say that the 5 drop dead gorgeous head teachers scrubbed up well for breakfast as well. Now I know what they were doing on the computer each night. Thanks for the comments on the sessions which I am using to refresh my reflections of the sessions. Well Done.
