Neil Gow - Peter Seabrook New Plant Award

Neil Gow - 101 Brand new plants 'Hot Off the Potting Bench'

This episode I'm joined by Nouk, Ralph, Martin C, Martin G and for a very short time by Mark, as we look into the foundations of our New Quest(TM) to build a Campaign; this time it will not be from the best parts of other campaigns - That would be madness! - but by coming up with our own ideas. This is all going to be about the Liminal Game from the pen of the Tweedmeister himself - Paul Mitchener. You can find Liminal core book here: https://www.modiphius.net/collections/liminal Along with the two companion books Pax Londinum and Weerewolvs of Britain by Neil Gow and Becky Arneson respectively. The shows a beast but I hope things will get better! You can find us on @frankensteinRPG on twitter and you can always leave a voice mail for us on the Anchor website.

HortWeek editor Matthew Appleby speaks to Jeff Colegrave, Nicole Higginson and Neil Gow, all trustees of the Colegrave Seabrook Foundation.The former David Colegrave Foundation was set up in 1993, in memory of seedsman David Colegrave. During his career, David took a keen interest in supporting and promoting the development of young people, and it was with this in mind that the foundation was launched.His great friend Peter Seabrook, and fellow horticulturist, became one of the founder trustees until his death in January 2022. His name was added to the foundation earlier this year as a mark of respect and also to "lend us additional credibility and allow us to push forward our agenda of helping young people in horticulture".Colegrave, Higginson and Gow talk about the benefits of working with the foundation and how it has changed. Nicole Higginson is one of several new trustees and she explains why she agreed to take on the role.They outline the scholarships that are now available to encourage the students that "are going to be the future of the industry...embrace the new technologies, the new ways of doing things".Blue Diamond Garden Centres recently initiated a scholarship which is funding apprentices to help them through their horticulture studies. One of these, an apprentice at New Leaf Plants Tom McDonald, is studying his Level 3 Crop Technician qualification at Pershore College. Other highlights include Majestic Trees funds a travel scholarship and the Colegrave Markham scholarship which funded Tim Curley and James Hearsom and helped them to career success.Gow speaks about the promotion of the scholarships and then Colegrave discusses the fundraising push the foundation is making – going out to industry players.Gow says horticulture is not seen as a profession by many people from outside the industry and is struggling to attract enough good people.Colegrave points out: "We are really the only charitable organisation who's major remit is to support the next generation coming through into the industry... which is why we are asking companies to support our efforts...to lend their name to some of the scholarships that we support by sponsoring them."

Season 5 Episode 4 Drummond Castle Manuscript Tunes: David Young’s Drummond Castle Manuscript: Athol Braes, Kiss’d Yestereen, New Bigging, The Malt Man, Kick the World Before You William Napier: Braes of Athol Neil Gow & Sons: Oh as I was Kiss’d Yestreen James Rook: Oh as I was Kiss’d Yestreen William Gunn: Oh How I was Kiss’d Yestreen Donald MacDonald: Kick the Rogues Out Elizabeth Ross: You Silly Fool Here is a link to the Gordon Mooney Article on Border/Lowland Pipe Revival I was referencing. https://oddscotland.com/lowland-and-border-pipers-society-history The Art for this episode comes from the Natinol Library of Scotland, by Susan Fletcher Crawford https://www.nationalgalleries.org/art-and-artists/22521/drummond-castle-perthshire David Young Wrote these settings for the Duke of Perth at Drummond Castle in 1734, I have used the copies available from Ross’s Music Page, all the tunes in this episode come from the first of two PDFs on Ross’s Music Page: https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~rja14/music/index.html The actual PDF download is the below link: http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~rja14/musicfiles/manuscripts/drummond1.pdf First Tune from David Young is Braes of Atholl Decent information on David Young’s numerous other publications can be found here: https://www.altpibroch.com/y3/ Note that the tune also appears in John Walsh’s Country Dance books both English and Scottish according to Traditional Tune Archive, I could not find it there. It does appear with slight variations in Robert Bremner’s Scots Reels book from 1757: https://digital.nls.uk/special-collections-of-printed-music/archive/105003153 Also according to Traditional Tune Archive it is in William Vickers MS. Braes of Atholl from William Napier’s 1798 collection is quite different and fun for Uilleann Pipes: https://digital.nls.uk/special-collections-of-printed-music/archive/105015671 Bio on William Napier from HMS.Scot: Biographical info: Napier lived c.1740-1812, and died in London. He was a violinist both at Edinburgh's Canongate Theatre, and for Edinburgh Musical Society, before moving to London. (Alburger, 120; Macleod) He played in prestigious bands including the court of George III, and in middle life set up as publisher, later also starting a circulating library. Napier comissioned music from Haydn and was well-connected with other classical composers. (Grove; Baptie) (https://hms.scot/fiddle/source/201/) David Young: New Bigging. The Next Tune I play is New Bigging, likely named for the tune of Newbigging, in Angus. It sounds very familiar, but it also may just remind me of the mystery tune I play before it. Do you know what it is called? The Next tune I play from Drummond Castle is Kiss’d Yestereen. 18teens: Neil Gow & Sons: Oh How I was kiss’d Yestreen in the Second repository of The Dance Music of Scotland: https://imslp.org/wiki/Gow%27sRepositoryoftheDanceMusicofScotland(Gow%2C_Niel) 1840s: James Rook’s Manuscript: Oh How I was Kissed Yestereen: https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~rja14/musicfiles/rook/rook_pages/033.htm 1848: William Gunn: Oh How I was Kiss’d Yestreen, He calls it a quickstep, so I play it like I would a 6/8 march, then play it as written. https://ceolsean.net/content/Gunn/Gunn_TOC.html David Young: The Malt Man. This tune again also appears in Gow’s Repository and Rook’s Manuscript. 1828: Donald MacDonald’s Setting for Kick the Rogues Out: Can you recognize the funky gracing in the beginning? https://digital.nls.uk/special-collections-of-printed-music/archive/105683188 1812: Elizabeth Ross’s You Silly Fool or "Amedain ghórich" Elizabeth Ross’s Impressive collection from Raasay in 1812. We will certainly be talking about this collection in the future.

Generation Z is our largest generation ever. They are over 2 billion strong and are predicted to make up nearly 30% of the workforce by 2025. Fifty percent of them are likely to have a university degree that will carry them through 17 jobs, spanning five different careers in their lifetime. So how can we harness the energy of this huge pool of "think differently," "act differently" resources? With an internship program. Learn how the Splunk ANZ team focused on addressing the staffing challenges many tech companies face, particularly with regard to promoting diversity and including underrepresented groups, such as female students studying STEM subjects. This session will review how they built an internship program that not only delivered huge value to the business, including Gen Z diversity, but also focused on transferring technical and soft skills to facilitate their transition into full-time employment.

Fifty percent of them are likely to have a university degree that will carry them through 17 jobs, spanning five different careers in their lifetime. So how can we harness the energy of this huge pool of "think differently," "act differently" resources? With an internship program. Learn how the Splunk ANZ team focused on addressing the staffing challenges many tech companies face, particularly with regard to promoting diversity and including underrepresented groups, such as female students studying STEM subjects. This session will review how they built an internship program that not only delivered huge value to the business, including Gen Z diversity, but also focused on transferring technical and soft skills to facilitate their transition into full-time employment.
