And The Next Thing Is …

Notes of activity, interest & recommendation.

How To Restore A Castle
Dunans Castle
Our Lairds and Ladies form a huge community of interest around the restoration of Dunans Castle. The website sells gift packages and merchandise, most of the latter being based on our very own ‘Dunans Rising’ tartan.
Design
Sub100Club
A new music podcast hosted by the CharlesCharlieCharles himself with songs by bands and artists who have under 100 monthly listeners.
Poem
Family
Over the last few years I have been researching my family’s background and have been startled by my forebears and their achievements, particularly a gentleman called Ted who was a “Monuments Man”.
Recommended
The Walking Theatre Company
Being a director of TWTC means I get to look at the overall strategy of the business, most of the technical aspects of its internet presence, and I also do all of the design work, including the books.
Writing
Colintraive and Glendaruel Development Trust
As chair of CGDT I have been involved since the steering group in 2008. Since then we have bought the 605ha Stronafian Forest for 1.55M and run two highly successful CCF projects.
Community Benefit from Renewables
ForArgyll
Founded this online news outlet for Argyll with Lynda and Patrick in 2007, and have loved being involved ever since. OK, so the server outtages aren’t fun, but some of our achievements have made a real difference, like our stories on Schools Closures or the Maersk Container vessels.
Argyll and Isles Coastal and Countryside Trust
I’m a trustee for the Argyll and Isles Coast and Countryside Trust, or ACT, and represent the community of Cowal and Bute on the board.
Community Woodlands Association
Glen of the Red River
Great project which remains online and reflects the efforts of Kilmodan Primary School to engage with the history and geography of Colintraive and Glendaruel led by TWTC

In the presence of greatness: the album “Strangers” by Simone Felice is now #onmyplaylist

Simone Felice – Gettysburg

So its Alt. Country Folk. Lumineers provide some backing vocals. There’re some exquisite melodies. Great lyrics. Only half-way through. Superb!
