a place for dreams

The remarkable Glasgow Caledonian University's new Saltire Centre was completed at the end of 2005 - after some heroic efforts by then Pro Vice Chancellor Les Watson. I was asked to comment on video for a broadcast at the time it was officially opened - and so was Gordon Brown, then the UK's Chancellor of the Exchequer.

I won't comment on the contrast between why I thought the new building mattered and why Gordon did - I just enjoy the contrast between our comments - hope you do too.
