Keeping in touch from Scotland
While we were in Oundle for the rugby tournament, we had a tour of the school. It’s amazing. It’s over 450 years old (so Captain Cook’s grandfather probably could’ve gone there)! The school is massive, and in the middle of the town. Every school building is old and glorious.
The 7-a-side, national U13 hockey tournament was held the next day. At the tournament were the best hockey teams in the UK. There were only two scottish teams there, and we were one of them. I was one of the umpires! I umpired hockey at the national level! The standard was pretty damn good. The boys did […]
I went away on tour with the rugby and hockey sides this week. We had to leave Ardvreck at about 6:00 am, and caught a bus to edinburgh airport for a flight down to Bristol (British geography anyone?). We arrived in Bristol, and went for a tour around Millfield prep and senior school. They were […]
I’VE POSTED THIS ONE AGAIN. THE VIDEO WASN’T WORKING BEFORE, BUT SHOULD BE FINE NOW! IF NOT, GO TO: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_2K_U8MmgM One night after skiing, we went down to the local supermarket and bought these little plastic clams. They’re these small plastic trays that little germans slide down the hill on. So, naturally, we bought some! […]
Two weeks ago, there was a seven-a-side hockey tournament for the under 13 boys (my team). We took them away, and they ended up winning! So now, they will be travelling to Somerset to compete at the national tournament! So I get a free trip away to England! Woo hoo! Even better, there is also a […]
Rugby A v Ireland A I was given the opportunity to go to a Scotland A v Ireland A rugby match at McDermit Park last week. Free tickets were given out to the rugby coaches of certain schools, so that meant that I got to go! We were in a hospitality suite – suit and […]
A good friend of mine back in Australia, Jack Sinclair, is CYCLING ACROSS AUSTRALIA! Perth to Surfers Paradise – 4 500 km in 30 days. And he’s only 15 yrs old! Jack’s training extremely hard. He’ll have to cover between 100 and 200km every day for a whole month, in extreme heat (40+ degrees C) […]
At Ardvreck, the fire alarm went off! We all had to evacuate and the firefighters came to put out the fire!
18! Woo Hoo! 🙂 Now you can finally know what alcoholic beverages taste like! I told you I was going to give you a shout out!
On the ski slopes, there were bars everywhere. You just ski up to them, order a drink and enjoy the scenery.
