The Tomintoul Games were held yesterday, Saturday, July 15 in the Public Park at the southern end of Tomintoul. It was a classic games day in a beautiful setting with fair weather until a downpour at 5pm.
Nine seniors and six juniors made a healthy competition, and it was a pleasure to see Josh Chandler from Australia and Piers Dovers from New Zealand. The overall champion was Calum Brown.
