THE OLD SURGERY, BUCHLYVIE Tuesdays 6pm ̶ 9pm Intrigued, the Courier decided to investigate. The notices brought to our attention that the whole of Killearn Primary School is enthusiastically involved in the Eco- Schools Project (www.ecoschoolsscotland.org), was awarded bronze and silver in 2005 and is now working towards the gold award. It is obviously making an impact on the children. Each class is doing a different aspect of caring for the environment. For example, Primary 5/6 is doing a project on litter, finding out what comprises litter, how effective different styles of notices are, what sort of bins encourage their use and so on. But this is not just classroom theory. If you look over the school hedge at lunchtime, you will see one of the class, complete with protective apron, a litter picker, a plastic sack and a clipboard going around the school grounds picking up each piece of litter and recording it. This survey not only shows what is causing the litter, but how effective the message not to drop litter is getting across.

Intermittent contractions on the Tuesday evening didn’t stop the rest of the family going off to school and work as usual the next day. It wasn’t until teatime on Wednesday that the pace started to quicken. With children, Caitlin and Calum in safe hands, husband Ewan ‘Pieman’ McKay packed Donna into the car for the run into The Queen Mother’s. But even by Blanefield it was clear that the baby was arriving somewhat more quickly than expected! Contractions were rapid and things were starting to happen! By the canal at Anniesland, Donna Donna and Ewan McKay with Caitlin, Calum and new baby Ruiaidh screamed to Ewan that the baby was coming and they had to stop. Pieman screeched to a halt in Morrison’s car park at Anniesland Cross – reclining the front seat with one hand, making Donna as comfortable as possible and calling the ambulance service DRYMEN with the other. Unfortunately the switchboard couldn’t direct an DECORATIVE STONE ambulance even to Morrison’s at Anniesland Cross without a road name!

  • Foi-19-00951 Information Released
    13 October 2017 BC/pt Nicola Sturgeon MSP First Minister St Andrews House Regent Road Edinburgh EH1 3DG Dear First Minister, I have recently been contacted by one of my constituents regarding your announcement about setting up a public energy company. My constituent says that he applauds this commitment but has asked me to outline the issue faced by many people in rural areas. Some years ago, the then Scottish Hydro, recognising that many rural areas don’t have access to mains gas, set up a tariff called THTC (Total Heat Total Control) designed to run storage heating off-peak, plus another heating appliance on cheap rate. Consequently, many people installed electric boilers, which were just about cost-effective on that tariff. This means that, unless they are prepared to replace their entire heating systems, they are effectively locked to this tariff. No other provider offers such a tariff, and SSE don’t offer it to new customers, while being free to increase the costs. My constituent suggests that this area would seem an ideal case for the new public utility to consider.
