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 ´óÏó´«Ã½ Alba. The Gaelic TV channel had live coverage of the game (as did ´óÏó´«Ã½ 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... and the wee boat made it safely home.
