Shetland Mid Summer 7's
Strathmore Gryphons / Angus Mercenaries win Plate

Four Strathie men  made the trip to the Shetland Mid Summer 7's along with Ronne MacLennan from Arbroath and Shagger from the SPS, joined well by big John from Shetland, Orkney Dave and a few others throughout the  afternoon.  Managed by Inspector Gadget the men in Black defeated the Shetland Old Boy's to win the plate.  The main event was won by the hosts beating Aberdeenshire who included James & Stuart in their final line up.  More incriminating eveidence to follow

Four of Strathie's over 35's (Fred Crowe, Grahame Low, Ian Matheson & Gary MacGregor) joined Aberdeen Strollers and Blairgowrie to form the Tayside Strollers at the 2nd Scottish Golden Oldies Rugby Festival in Perth.

Six 20 minute matches with a ten minute break between each one in an afternoon was hard work for the forward pack who included 81year old Alistair Urquhart ( the festivals oldest player) who managed all the matches, SRU President Jim Stevenson donned his boots and joined us for a match.

The day started with a tough match against a strong Perthshire side followed by Waid, Mackie, Cartha Queens Park, Kirkcaldy/Hillfoots and finally Biggar.  With an afternoons free whiskey from Famous Grouse the beer tent was a busy place Inveralmond Brewery provided the beer and Perthshire provided a dead (by the end of the day) pig and burgers for the barbecue a great time was had by all.

It was suggested during the Crieff match that Gary Durward bears a striking resemblance to the awesome assistant of Danger Mouse - Penfold!
