School Sports

Seeing people propose two hours a day for sports aren't sensible.

Two hours a day? No. School is primarily for learning, and two hours of sport means only three hours are left for this purpose. Unless school hours are to be increased, how are children supposed to learn all the information that they need to? I'm not saying that there should be no sports in school, just maybe a limit of two hours a week instead of a minimum of two a day.

Also, there's the declaration to get rid of the 'everyone is a winner' culture. That is not what happens. It's still nice to win, but that isn't what sport is about, because it is about taking part. If sport was just about winning, only those that were really good would enjoy it because only they could fulfil the 'purpose' of the sport, which would decrease the people of sport that would chose to do sport in their own time. That would be utterly counterproductive.

Argyll and Bute, Scotland

   Ten days without a phone signal and Internet, and where the minerals in the water make it the colour of the weakest apple juice. No matter how useful and pleasant technology can be, it's always nice to not have them once in a while.
   The mountains were stunning: beautifully untouched by humans. I had always considered the Malvern Hills to be big, hard climb, but seeing the mountains in Scotland made me quite glad that I didn't climb any of them!

We went to the Scottish Sea Life Sanctuary in Oban.
       They only had only seal in the Seal Pools, which is really good because it meant the seals they'd been treating were are okay and in the sea!
       Annoyingly, someone took a flash picture of the octopus despite the fact that there were three massive signs asking people not to do so. I think it was fine, so hopefully no harm was done!
