Speaker: Andy Mitchell, Sports Historian This year marks 200 years since the Foot-Ball Club kicked off in Edinburgh, the world’s first known organisation dedicated to football. It was founded in December 1824 by John Hope, whose meticulous records of the club’s activities are preserved in the National Records of Scotland (NRS) among his extensive personal archive. This talk will celebrate the club’s bicentenary by exploring its origins, its members and its legacy, placing it firmly in the pantheon of association football heritage. This talk is a hybrid event. For those attending in-person a small display of original records will be on show from John Hope’s archive. There will be time for questions at the end.

The General Registration Building is worth visiting. It is a very good scenic spot. This building is very distinctive. The British style is very calm and elegant. If time permits, you must come and see it. Ctrip&#39;s positioning is really convenient and easy to use.

It is a must-visit place in Edinburgh. On the hill, there are lots of good spots to get a good view of the city. Old Town, New Town, Arthur&#39;s Seat, and the sea are all visible there.

OMNi Centre

Omni Center is located in the city center, which is suitable for shopping. There are many shopping malls and restaurants, with a wide selection. You can get a tax refund for shopping, but you need to check the starting amount. The environment is very good and the security is also very good. I am satisfied~
