Things hadn’t changed by the time I arrived in 1990. At least this is more original than endless show parades for ‘fluff on beret.’

As good a junior play as I’ve ever seen! Thank you for a highly entertaining, pacy & impressive performance last night. Good luck again today.

This beautiful goblet was awarded to ANS Sandeman for winning the open hurdles Glenalmond College in 1893. 130 years later, a kind collector has returned it to us. A kind gesture and a great bit of history. Sandeman’s name is also listed as a member of the 1st XI cricket in 1894.

The first of the professionally-built (by the brilliant Rick) mountain bike trails Glenalmond College is just about ready. A fabulous addition to our #outdoorlearning programme. More trails to come. I’m very grateful to the OGs, parents & the Parents’ Association for their support.

Jura emerges from the mist. Not a breath of wind here. Runners going well, meanwhile. #scottishislandpeaksrace2024

Off Jura this morning. #scottishislandpeaksrace2024

Epic! 30km around Mull with these two superstars - Ellis & Oli. The mountain ascent was horrendous; the scenery spectacular. #scottishislandpeaksrace2024

Coming into Mull. Leg 1 of the running ahead: Ben Talaidh awaits. 761m.

And the Glenalmond College boat - Taeping - is off. Luca & Ben ran 10km around Oban, we rowed out to the boat and Ben then piped us away from Oban. Now heading for Mull. #scottishislandpeaksrace2024
