  • The West Highland Way
    The West Highland Way An Expedition Report Declan Brady 6th Meath (Ashbourne) Scout Group Introduction This is my expedition to the West Highland Way in Scotland, with the intention of fulfilling the Level 8 Hillwalking Adventure Skill requirement to “have taken part in an unaccompanied but supervised 2 night hike in the mountains outside the Island of Ireland.” There are some specific conditions attached to that, as noted in the “Skills Requirements” section in the Adventure Skills book: it should involve two nights camping; the campsites should be at different points along the route of the hike, in a mountain environment, with the first at a low level and the second at a high level, etc. Planning I chose the West Highland Way because Scotland is very accessible and it is quite permissive of wild camping. Scotland has a “right to roam” law, which means that, by and large, you can go, and camp, almost anywhere, provided you respect the rules. Having said that, it is not always completely welcome, and as Scouts we have to respect the wishes of local people as best we can (if for no other reason than that they’ll be happy to welcome us back). So careful planning is needed. I chose to go in the spring, because hopefully, by then, the cold (and snowy) weather will largely be gone, but also I should be able to get in and out before the dreaded Scottish midgies have woken from their winter slumber. Having said that, spring weather and Scottish weather are very changeable; so mixing the two together is interesting.

  • NBG Report for KCC Meeting 19 Apr 2017
    NBG Report for KCC Meeting 19 Apr 2017 Further progress! The new fibre cabinet at the Killearn exchange is now live, accepting orders, and some residents have already got the service installed and working. Speeds are reported to be as expected at 30Mbps or more. So if you live in “The Trees”, nearby, or in the centre of the village, you should be able to get “super-fast broadband! About 50% of postcodes in the village are now connected to one of the fibre cabinets. Status of your individual connectivity can be checked on either of the WhereandWhen pages of the BT Openreach or Digital Scotland websites or in the tables at the end of this report. This site is also showing a download of the exchange roll-out list, but as this is only at exchange level, it doesn’t help very much. NOTE: Remember the Digital Scotland “Better Broadband Scheme” provides a subsidy to establish a better connection using either satellite or wireless for those currently getting download speeds of less than 2Mbps. See the KCC website for specific links. Balfron has also got more cabinets with 85% of the village now showing as “Accepting Orders”. Strathblane/Blanefield is in a similar position with slightly over 85% of the village covered. Buchlyvie has nearly 90% showing as connected while Croftamie/Drymen is showing nearly 60% Accepting Orders. All this does have to be qualified though as many premises are on long lines, and whilst they will see a significant benefit in speed (double or better), they will not achieve “super-fast” speeds.
