@Autotelic_Arch Best advice I've followed - Be honest about what you do know and about what you don't know. Often those around you don't know either, and you will come across much more trustworthy & confident knowing your limits with an openness to learn.

Big fail by @BBCBreakfast this morning. Looking at many ways to cut energy bills but no mention of #retrofit or #insulation, and government funding for this! In order to reduce fuel poverty let's start by reducing demand.

The grants team from @HistEnvScot brought some rare December sunshine with them on our tour at @ProvanHall. A great opportunity to demonstrate the importance of their support to the success of the project. Thanks for joining us @HES, @SevenLochs @GlasgowCC #provanhall
