Is the trailing slash needed as you add another when you concatenate?
No, I guess it isn't needed.

I just prefer to put it in when using directory paths in variables which I know are going to be used in such a way. That way you either end up with 'DIRECTORY/file', or 'DIRECTORY//file'. Rather than risking 'DIRECTORYfile'.

I didn't think that either mattered.
