Ditto.

Looking forward to more from him this week, in isolation and without anyone to shut him up. Just wait until he starts tweeting in capitals.

I am tempted to say Loch Ruthven, but I can't see any online photographs that convince me...

I thought at first that it might be Loch Garry, south-west from Dalnaspidal. It's not that. But there can't be many lochs with a slope on them like that

I have had a quick look for schools or former schools on the Black Isle Not with the wee yellow man, though. Have seen a couple - Mulbuie and Newhall - which are similar. Discolouring on the chimney and slates and the direction of the TV aerial would suggest that it's in the quadrant north-west of Mounteagle/Rosemarkie. But most of the Black Isle is, anyway. And you could both be trying to mislead me! Go on, tell me...

It's certainly a lot steadier. Maybe because it's not looking into strong sunshine?

OK, it's Redcastle in the Black Isle. I've driven along the coast road on Google Maps, and cannot see it. Nor can I pinpoint that passing place. And I reckon that if you were that far away from the road, your feet must have been very wet!

Not easy, but I have worked it out. I think you're showing us only half of it. Will leave it for a while in case anyone else is looking at it. Can't figure out where you took it from. Were you on a boat?

Let's be realistic. The name of the game this season is survival. Not just avoiding relegation from the Championship, but survival of the club itself. Paying compensation to terminate the contracts of the manager and assistants, and hiring new ones, would be suicidal. Not going to happen.

Two commentators, a cameraman, secondary cameras behind the goals, a producer, and a classy website. Even if the people are volunteers - and I don't know if that is the case - then that all costs a fair amount of money to set up. And money is very scarce this season. Before the match the commentators were saying that Raith was fortunate that they set their system up about 7 years ago - although it has since been upgraded - and that they would not like to be starting from scratch this season. 7 years' experience will also help!

Penalty practice for the rest of the week, lads.

With a different referee it would have been a very different game...

3-2!! This season we are getting forward in numbers much more. If you do that, you make your own luck.

Brilliant - thank you. Have today worked out how to use the web browser on my TV - I've only had it for two or three years - and intend to give it a go later. So the point about possible stuttering when the chat board is updated might prevent some anguish and swearing!

Agreed, but I fear we may see more of America burning before the mango Mussolini is finally ejected from the White House.

There will be contracts which prevent that.

Mine was a little bent - as though it had been read a few times Not the greatest idea to send out a paperback of that size and weight in thin plastic packaging. A little padding next time, please, guys.

And I'd expect the pie and programme to be delivered by Ann Budge in person...

Has it ever been used live? Quite possibly they don't have the infrastructure - cabling round three sides of the ground, dedicated computer and comms equipment in the stand, and onward connection to a live streaming provider.

This is what the camera looks like. Four fixed cameras and what looks like a mike, on top of a pole. The system stitches the images from all four together, so that at all times it has a panoramic view of the entire ground - just like having a big screen in front of you. The AI then controls a virtual camera pointed at the panoramic view, and decides how to "move" it and when to zoom in and out - it decides which part of the big screen we see. Nothing actually moves - except when the wind shakes the whole assembly! This would indeed cause the cameras' images to change slightly - in absolute terms, and also relative to each other - so the line of the join between adjacent images would move. Easy enough for a human to cope with - more difficult for a machine. They claim to have used and tested it on a number of different sports. Though I suspect that most of the testing was done in more benign conditions than 50 feet in the air in autumn in one of the most exposed locations that you could think of! Hope it can cope with extreme cold.

I was pleased early on that Ridgers was passing or throwing it out. But after the goal, he reverted to route one. Presumably with the wind behind him now, he'll be trying to score. Rugby coming to a close finish

Was that Robbo just being booked?

It has just completely missed a goal, for Arbroath. Inexcuseable. Complaint will be made afterwards.

Nasty noise, though. Have had to turn it right down because my wife thought I was dragging heavy furniture across the floor

Into the sun. Lens flare in the same places on the pitch as last week. No commentator - but some dodgy-connection noises.
