Playing Rugby for Jordanhill College Rugby Football Club 1958
Playing Rugby for Jordanhill College Rugby Football Club 1958 - 1966 John Henderson ‘The Boot’ Remembers Playing Rugby for Jordanhill College RFC ‘The Boot’ Remembers When I first matriculated in October 1958 at the Scottish School of Physical Education, Jordanhill, Glasgow to undergo a three year diploma course of training in order to qualify as a teacher of Physical Education, I had no idea that some years later my senior rugby career would turn out to be as creditable as it did. Although I knew then that I was a very accurate and lengthy instep place-kicker of a rugby ball, I was under no illusion that my getting a place in the Jordanhill College Rugby Football Club top squad would be easy, nor did I have any notion then that retaining a first choice spot in the 1st XV for a good number of seasons might possibly occur. However, I was aware of the fact that graduating from College was not the end of the opportunity to play senior rugby for Jordanhill, as former students as players were not only considered eligible, but were also deemed essential in order to maintain a fighting chance for coach Bill Dickinson‟s side to compete at the highest levels possible in Scotland. Thus time was on my side, if only I was patient, and prepared to work hard at the game. But first I had, during my student days, to convince mentors Bill Dickinson and George Orr of my potential, and then, if this was accomplished, to provide consistent proof thereafter of my continuing value as a full back/three-quarter and place kicker in the top side in its annual attempts to win the Scottish Unofficial Club Championship and the Glasgow District Knock-Out Trophy. -

PLANTS of PEEBLESSHIRE (Vice-County 78)
PLANTS OF PEEBLESSHIRE (Vice-county 78) A CHECKLIST OF FLOWERING PLANTS AND FERNS David J McCosh 2012 Cover photograph: Sedum villosum, FJ Roberts Cover design: L Cranmer Copyright DJ McCosh Privately published DJ McCosh Holt Norfolk 2012 2 Neidpath Castle Its rocks and grassland are home to scarce plants 3 4 Contents Introduction 1 History of Plant Recording 1 Geographical Scope and Physical Features 2 Characteristics of the Flora 3 Sources referred to 5 Conventions, Initials and Abbreviations 6 Plant List 9 Index of Genera 101 5 Peeblesshire (v-c 78), showing main geographical features 6 Introduction This book summarises current knowledge about the distribution of wild flowers in Peeblesshire. It is largely the fruit of many pleasant hours of botanising by the author and a few others and as such reflects their particular interests. History of Plant Recording Peeblesshire is thinly populated and has had few resident botanists to record its flora. Also its upland terrain held little in the way of dramatic features or geology to attract outside botanists. Consequently the first list of the county’s flora with any pretension to completeness only became available in 1925 with the publication of the History of Peeblesshire (Eds, JW Buchan and H Paton). For this FRS Balfour and AB Jackson provided a chapter on the county’s flora which included a list of all the species known to occur. The first records were made by Dr A Pennecuik in 1715. He gave localities for 30 species and listed 8 others, most of which are still to be found. Thereafter for some 140 years the only evidence of interest is a few specimens in the national herbaria and scattered records in Lightfoot (1778), Watson (1837) and The New Statistical Account (1834-45). -
The Upper Tweed Community News Issue 77 June 2017 Tractor Tours to Primary Schools of the Borders
£ 0.70 The Upper Tweed Community News Issue 77 June 2017 Tractor Tours to Primary Schools of the Borders The Royal Highland Education Trust (RHET) arranged for a tractor to visit every primary school in the Scottish Borders on the 9th of March. The tour was organised by RHET’s Scottish Borders Countryside Initiative (SBCI). RHET SBCI had the use of 10 tractors kindly donated by tractor dealerships in the Borders. These tractors visited each primary school on the day, and were seen by over 4000 children. Rose of Lamancha provided a Case tractor for all the pupils in Peeblesshire to see, kindly driven by RHET volunteer Kate Rowell from Hundleshope Farm. The morning started at West Linton school, with the P1, 2 and 3 pupils joined by the nursery children, to send the tractor on its way. It then headed to Newlands and Broughton, where the children and teachers had dressed up as farmers and animals to welcome the tractor. Both schools also made generous donations to RHET SBCI. The tractor then went on to 6 further primary schools in Peeblesshire before all 10 touring tractors gathered in Newtown St Boswells’ auction mart. Pupils asked some great questions throughout the day, including “How tall is the tractor?”, “How big is the engine?” and “How fast does it go?” There were also some very challenging questions from a few of the children from farming backgrounds. Following on from the tractor tour, RHET SBCI are producing a fundraising recipe book showcasing the great food produced in the Borders. Many schools have provided RHET SBCI with fantastic recipes, and Ally McGrath from Osso Restaurant in Peebles has kindly supplied some of his tasty recipes too.
