And Me Without The Gaelic Too
Did you spot me on the tellly this afternoon? A friend phoned while I was at the Caley Thistle - Ross County Match to say that she could see me on BBC Alba. The Gaelic TV channel had live coverage of the game (as did BBC Radio Scotland) and it seems I appeared on screen every time there was action around one of the corner flags.
I have to say, that phone call made me very self-conscious. I stuffed that Scotch pie back into the pocket of my anorak and tried to get a grip of my facial expressions. Mainly I tried to keep my eye on the game instead of letting my concentration wander towards that view across the Moray Firth where a small yacht was making its way towards the new marina.
You see what I mean?
It must be hard having the cameras on you for a full ninety minutes and it does make me wonder how many of the players, managers and officials are doing a bit of acting out there.
Perhaps we need a new category at the Baftas for this.
Oh...CaleyThistle won one-nil, by the way, and the wee boat made it safely home.

Nope, I can't spot you. Which is a double negative, so that means I can spot you, but I can't. Are you the one in the shocking pink anorak? Would you mind getting one so that I can spot you next time.

Jeff wears a battery operated bodywarmer which he 'borrows' from Mrs. Z
Kinda like when you buy a train-set for the kids...

so if I sit with the county fans wearing a pink bodywarmer will that satisfy all three of you?

Can't speak for the others but with C.T. being already 6 points adrift maybe they'd welcome a floridly decorated mascot!
