    I'd built a strategy - a tourism strategy that was linking the cruise business with the Town's businesses.

    A few years ago I created two fully costed, local cruise day-excursions, where local sites would have been visited and obviously benefitted greatly from it.

    It was approved and at the time, well thought of, but it never went anywhere.

    It's not so much long term strategy, as long-term funding; it's no good having a great scheme with obvious benefits to the Town and the whole area, if money runs out after 18 months.
    It needs commitment but it never gets that commitment; like the old TCM, it ends up chasing its tail in fund-raising exercises when it should be working for the Town.

    I know/knew what needs doing, but was always willing to listen to people's ideas, being given the freedom to put them in place was the problem.
