Two goals in the first 15 minutes saw hosts Orkney on their way in Day 1's evening kick-off game against Frøya in Group C at KGS I, and they added another late on to run out 3:0 winners. They also missed a penalty just before half-time..

Later on day 1, #Gozo came up against #Shetland in Group B at the KGS ll in Kirkwall. Shetland had more than enough chances to win it, especially in the first half, but the game finished scoreless. A penalty shoot-out was held for placing purposes, which Gozo won 4:3

Small wooden side table with a bamboo board on it. On the board is a wedge of french brie, smoked cheese and some individual boursin with oatcakes, cheese straws, red grapes and pistachios.
Last teaching day of term for me today (2 days of packing up school ahead of the #IslandGames to go). Some lovely kind handmade cards & thoughtful gifts from pupils & families. This made me smile though, one child who has told her family "she loves cheese" so I got a boxed cheeseboard 🥰😂🧀 #Cheese
