Thanks Jon.

Looks like they're going forward then. I can't say that I'm super surprised as Andy retired due his body not the travel. I'd love to be a fly on the wall in his inner life.

btw, did you ever post any videos anywhere?
I didnt ! Tried to attach them from my phone but they wouldnt take! Ill need to try from my laptop
No worries, just wondered if I missed them - as you might gather I like insider perspectives.

I don't think you can post videos on here. It won't let me attach mp4 files. Maybe post on Instagram ?

oh, sadly it is still linked to the original Times article as opposed to the Archive version - maybe the time window has passed (if there is such a thing?)

It seems that Andy is going to continue as NoDjo's coach "indefinitely". furious

Looks like Andy's hotel isn't doing the best:

Jon will know best having stayed there, but I do wonder whether there's quite the market for that kind of hotel - £700/night would also get you a 5 star hotel in central Paris - in Dunblane?

Yeah, I had seen this - my impression was a lot of investment and capital outlay is going in and this was captured in the results in professional papers, when I read it. ie the loss was expected.

That said, it is high end and there are only 15 rooms, I think, or suites, at the hotel. The restaurant is well attended by locals and guests alike, always busy, but the hotel itself seemed quite empty; partly reflecting the price. We booked the entry level rooms at a lot lower price (a lot lower!) and got upgraded to the top suite that i mentioned elsewhere, and it was lovely - it would have cost £900 and, agreeing with you, who would pay that for a few nights in Dunblane?

I do think it is lovely but over priced for the location - agreed
