Famous musical connections

By coincidence yesterday a couple of famous musical coincidences cropped up. First the death of Ike Turner, who by way of v.dry humour I took Lucy, who’d had an unhappy family life, to see on St Valentine’s Day a few years ago at Ronnie Scott’s in Soho. Secondly, I caught the BBC documentary on Pink Floyd, and caught sight of their former manager Pete Jenner, who I met v.briefly once through Red Pepper magazine back in the mid-90’s. Who knows maybe I’ll actually get to hear some music soon?

The holy grail for the Healthy Schools Programme

The holy grail for the Healthy Schools Programme? Maybe an objective measurement of evidence of impact’? I tried to find it (and my question recently surfaced again, via Google, thanks) but failed; though I had a go presenting a kind of a v. short paper (‘From systems to evidence: a study in applying complexity theory to a health promotion programme’) on it at a conference in Vienna. That will teach me.
