The Murder of Geoffrey Robbins





















This was the title of short play written by our sons Gerry and John, and performed all last week at Oran Mor in Glasgow.

Geoff was their flatmate in Edinburgh, and not long after he moved in, they wrote their first anti-Geoff song...."Geoff Came to our flat, so we killed him!...."
This was the first of many. It would appear Geoff had many unattractive traits that irked people, hence the play after he moved out.

It was great fun. The boys performed well ably supported by George Drennan as the hapless policeman.

Geoff and his family came to see the show on Tuesday, and thoroughly enjoyed it. He is back in the Black Isle now....isn't he???????

I am back teaching all next week.

On Friday I went into the computer suite to find some worksheets and print them off. I switched on one of the computers. 18 minutes later, I was still waiting for it to open up. How are schools meant to offer computer support to teachers and pupils if this is the quality available. Not fit for purpose I hazard to guess. They are not new, are HP machines, while the Dell holds the contract for Glasgow schools. I guess there is an issue there.
