We all need Doddie Weir's positivity right now (repeat)


Listen Later

With Coronavirus still impacting our lives and businesses, we need a massive injection of positivity. So we've re-published our episode with amazing Doddie Weir. Doddie is a Scotland and Lions rugby legend, a brave campaigner raising funds for Motor Neurone Disease, and a Borders farmer. In this edition, first published earlier this year, the big man welcomes OnFARM's Ross 'Monty' Montague to his home for a coffee and chat. The pair recall Doddie's early days in eventing and his time at the Scottish Agricultural College (SAC) college (later renamed Scotland’s Rural College, or SRUC). Doddie also hails the "unbelievable" support of Scotland's farming community for his MyName5Doddie fundraising campaign, and has brilliant tips about staying positive in difficult times. If you can, please lend Doddie your support at www.myname5doddie.co.uk/support-us
