With the school closed and the laptops open, it’s important for us all to keep an eye on our health and wellbeing. 30mins a day moderate exercise is the absolute minimum that we should be doing to keep ourselves healthy. With that in mind, we have decided to enter PLHS into ‘Doddie Aid’!
Its a simple concept, but we hope it will provide a little extra motivation to get outside and do some kind of exercise. It doesn’t need to be running, it can be walking, cycling, dog walking, golf, anything!
We have been entered into ‘Team South’ in a competition against the other regions of Scotland and the Scottish Exiles around the world. As you are not getting your normal PE lessons we are asking you (and your family if they wish) to do the following:
West Brom stretched their lead at the top of the Championship to seven points after a routine 2-0 win over Preston at the Hawthorns on Tuesday.

The Teams
To add an element of competition (Doddie is extreeemely competitive!), there are 5 teams from the old Inter-District championship. The South, Edinburgh, Glasgow, North & Midlands and the Exiles. See the Scoreboard page for the 4 criteria the Districts will be competing in. Once signed up for your District, for a small donation you will get your free district snood, and then you need to start logging all your exercise miles, be it walking the dog, rowing on an Ergo, climbing a hill or skiing back down, or measuring your steps through the working day; anything you TRY, they all count.
Conversions
The other key way you can help your District is to spread the word and recruit your friends and family into the team. They do not need to be local, or even from the District, or for that matter, Scottish at all. You can score CONVERSIONS by recruiting any poor soul not lucky enough to be born Scottish. The more interesting or well kent they are, the more bonus points you earn when you message your conversion on the Doddie Gump Facebook page via Facebook Messenger. Hopefully your District Manager and 2 Captains will be leading the way on major conversions. But who are you going to sign up?
Champion
At the end of the challenge, the scoreboards will be added up for each team to find out which District will be crowned 2021 INTER-DISTRICT CHAMPION!
MICHAEL ROBINSON: Who was Michael Robinson and why will Spain remember him forever?
A British admired and recognized in Spain? It sounds difficult, but Michael Robinson did make it possible, with a charisma and grace that captured the attention of all sports lovers and made us want to hear more of his leisurely arguments with a Spanishized British accent.
There are those who remember him most for his journalistic career, and others who remember the goals he scored as a striker for the Preston North End, Manchester City, Liverpool or CA Osasuna, and so many more.

A regrettable knee injury was enough to force him to leave the field professionally, but not of our lives. There he was in 'The Day After', in 'Robinson Report' and commenting for La Liga -among so many other spaces- in his new role as commentator, presenter and sports interviewer, with a settlement in Spain that for the rest of history will remain in the memory of an entire nation.
The talent and professionalism that characterized him from head to toe is undeniable, but also a kindness and innocence that even softens, and more if you find out that Michael, upon receiving the news that they wanted to sign him for CA Osasuna, accepted without even knowing that Osasuna was literally not a place to go. This is how Robinson himself told it: “My wife and I looked for Osasuna on the map and it did not appear. I thought Osasuna was a place. I believed it even when I was already training with them ”. 'What is Osasuna like?' Michael wondered then, but his wife Christine knew how to answer jokingly with the truth: 'Osasuna does not exist, Michael; that's the team name. The place is called Pamplona ”. (El Pais, 2012)
Michael Robinson was born in Leicester on July 12, 1958, but lived his childhood in the coastal city of Blackpool. His sports career started in the lower categories of Coventry City. At the age of 21 he signed for Manchester City and soon after joined Liverpool ... A dream come true for Robinson! But it was in 1987 that he transferred to Osasuna CF and arrived in Spain, the country he would completely fall in love with.
'When I came to Spain I just said hello, goodbye, thanks, beer and I counted to five,' Robinson confessed.
He later decided to retire in 1989 due to injuries to his knee, and shortly after he began his highly successful television career, joining the television program 'The Day After' and going on to create his own program later in 2007, which he called 'Informe Robinson' and his counterpart. radio 'Accent Robinson'. With several awards and infinite recognitions for his work in the sports world, Michael had to face, however, an unfortunate and harsh reality that led him to fight one of his most difficult battles ...
In December 2018, Michael Robinson revealed during an interview in “La Ventana” (Cadena SER) that he had been diagnosed with Melanoma. 'I thought it was a nightmare, that it wasn't real,' he calmly told the audience. 'I would have preferred not to have this battle, but given the circumstances, and it is what there is and I have it, I am really for the job, I am really for the fight, and I am learning from myself,' continued Robinson, who managed to contain the disease by months, maintaining his presence as the presenter of his sports journalism space on Movistar + until his last days.
Michael Robinson finally passed away from this disease at the age of 61 on April 28.
His great work was awarded two Ondas Awards (1992 and 2009) and the Manuel Vázquez Montalbán International Journalism Award (2017), and he will be forever remembered internationally and as the voice of football in Spain.
