@fatbuddha I’m hoping to be an LTO for Triathlon Scotland so I’ll be travelling quite a bit to cover events. I realised after racking up at events I would be helping out others prior to my heats so I might as well be official help as there is a shortage of officials.
It’s a long path of progression but I would like to get to RTO one day.
@leahnp ah - Scotlandshire - the other end of the country to me in the South East. you’ve got a good team of experienced TOs up there - I’ve been on the NTO and CTO courses with 2 of them (Lynne and Drew) and know quite a few of the others. yes, it’s a long progression path but if you have the aptitude and attitude, then the opportunities are there to move up.
Yeah dunno. It was brought up last week though!!
I always thought about being a TO, mainly because I’m a cyclist, triathlete and motorcyclist, so probably would be useful.

The run around Hawkwood Estate is nice as well.

We had a week down in Tregardock after we got married a couple of years ago and visited here for a pint on a walk. Lovely spot! To be honest the whole thing was great.

One of the YT channels I like to watch is ‘Run4Adventure’ by Lloyd Purvis. He films so many cool looking races around Cornwall that when this is over, I’m definitely putting a few of those on my list. Great area for a family getaway.
I went Scadbury last week. Love running through there but it was a bit overrun with kids so have avoided it since. still thick mud in parts also

A lot drier now and much fewer people, although not empty it wasn’t a problem and everyone giving each other ample social distance to pass.

More a during event positivity.
But just had an ace catchup with 5 of my mates. We only ever properly get together about once a year, despite all living local, now we have kids and jobs etc. Been meaning to get something in the diary for ages. One of the boys recommended a Facebook messenger chat tonight.
The technology worked really well. Better than my work teams meetings! And I really needed that friends’ stupidity. I love my family very much, but i’m a social creature and still need my time with my mates, being childish and silly. That’s sent me to bed with a smile on my face!

I’ve been using Houseparty over the last couple of days. Really easy to setup and use.
Chatted to loads of people I haven’t spoken to in a little while!

I had to delete Houseparty - stupid app. Really not for me!
I’m more than happy with WhatsApp video calling and Zoom for larger gatherings.

The one thing that pisses me off about it is anyone on your friends list jumping in on your calls.
Keep it positive.
