Snow fell from the sky as I stepped from Edinburgh Waverley station and out onto Princes street, where a winter wonderland of fairground rides, ice skating and music welcomed me to Edinburgh this weekend past. I was there to launch the fantastic Art In Schools competition for the National Galleries of Scotland and their sponsor Tesco Bank at the newly restored portrait gallery.
But as I strolled along towards my hotel, what should I see? literally thousands of nutcrackers, and other toys, on stalls at a German market. If that doesn’t inspire me to, er… “crack on” (sorry!) with Ella Bella, I don’t know what will!
