CLAPHAM AUDIO BOOK UPDATE

The voice files of the Clapham book have now been updated and amended to reflect the content of the second edition paperback from @penandswordbooks.bsky.social.

The only remaining jobs involve the theme tune and the final editing.

Morning all. Off to Stirling today to speak to ScotRail tomorrow about why corporate memory matters in rail. They already know, but the discussion will be valuable. The past is among us and its relevance is not done yet #rssb #safetylearning
