Busy Saturday

Been a busy day today, an early start to deliver Isobel to school at 8.30 to catch her coach to Braemar for her silver Duke of Edinburgh expedition.  Thankfully, after a few early showers the forecast is good if a little chilly.  Had a little bit of a panic when we found there was no compede but a lightning trip to Sainsburys and back solved that one, Ellie jumping on the bus just as the door was closing!

After that little panic it was up to Countesswells to deliver Ellie who was keeping goal for the S3 A team against Morrisons Academy of Crieff.  A 2-2 draw was a fair reflection of a very tight match. Robert Gordons twice being in the lead only for Morrisons to then peg them back.

After hockey it was home for a quick bite of lunch then of to the ski slope for some practice.  Ellie has races at Hillend in Edinburgh for the next three weekends, Craig McFie, Scottish Schools Dry Slope Championships then finishing off with the Scottish Dry Slope Champs in four weeks time.

And to top it off, it was the first outing for her birthday present from the summer, a brand new pair of boots thanks to Grandma and Grandpa!
