  • Local Studies Vol. 12: an T-Eilean Sgitheanach: Port Rìgh, an Srath
    Gàidhlig (Scottish Gaelic) Local Studies Vol. 12 : An t-Eilean Sgitheanach: Port Rìgh, An Srath & Slèite 2 nd Edition Gàidhlig (Scottish Gaelic) Local Studies 1 Vol. 12: An t-Eilean Sgitheanach: Port Rìgh, An Srath & Slèite (Isle of Skye: Portree, Strath & Sleat) Author: Kurt C. Duwe 2nd Edition April, 2006 Executive Summary This publication is part of a series dealing with local communities which were predominantly Gaelic- speaking at the end of the 19 th century. Based mainly (but not exclusively) on local population census information the reports strive to examine the state of the language through the ages from 1881 until to- day. The most relevant information is gathered comprehensively for the smallest geographical unit pos- sible and provided area by area – a very useful reference for people with interest in their own commu- nity. Furthermore the impact of recent developments in education (namely teaching in Gaelic medium and Gaelic as a second language) is analysed for primary school catchments. The Isle of Skye has been a Gaelic-speaking stronghold for centuries. After World War II decline set in especially in the main townships of Portree, Broadford and Kyleakin. However, in recent years a re- markable renaissance has taken place with a considerable success in Gaelic-medium education and of course the establishment and growth of the Gaelic further education college at Sabhal Mòr Ostaig on the Sleat peninsula. Foundations have now been laid for a successful regeneration of Gaelic in the south- eastern parts of the Isle of Skye. However, there is still much room for improvement especially in the pre-school sector and in a few locations like Raasay where Gaelic has shown a dramatic decline recently.

  • The Edinburgh Geologist – Issue 10
    The Edinburgh Geologist No.10 Autumn 1981 Cover Illustration: Alexander Rose, F.R.S.A. (Geologist), 1781-1860. EDITORIAL 'We regard it as one of the essential requisites of our little volume that all its science be considerably diluted with gossip'. This admirable statement in Thomas McCrie's book The Bass Rock .•. , published in 1847 certainly has some application in this particular issue of our little volume. But we make no apology, for science diluted by idle conversation frequently proves more amusing and instructive than an indigestible concentration of facts. In order to standardise its distribution we have resolved to circulate the maga­ zine to all Edinburgh Geological Society members residing in Lothian, Fife, Central and Borders Regions. To save on postage the magazine will continue to be distribu­ ted at the first lecture meeting following its publication. Thereafter remaining copies will be mailed to individuals. Distribution to other members who request a regular copy will continue as before. The success of our endeavours to maintain a readable magazine depends greatly upon both amateur and professional geologists to provide the raw material. One of our difficulties in interpreting what the reader wants is that we receive virtually no feedback. We would of course, always be pleased to have your com­ ments as well as articles for publication. Refreshed in mind and body from a summer full of splendid excursions, members of the Society may look forward to an equally stimulating (mentally at least) programme of lectures for 1981-82. For example, during the first four months of 1982 the list of titles indicates considerable geological and geographical diversity (see below\.

    THE ~ree ~re5b!2fertatt ~laga3tne And MONTHLY RECORD VOL. XXXI. August. 1926. No. 4. ~be Uieneral Bssemblies. 'THE General Assemblies of the Established, United Free, and Free Churches met at Edinburgh on Tuesday, 1st June, in terms of the adjournment on 18th May, owing to the General Strike. The Moderators were, respectively~Rev. J. D. McCallum, D.D., Lark­ hall; Rev. G. H. Morrison, D.D., Glasgow; and Rev. Alexander Stewart, Edinburgh. ESTABLISHED CHURCH ASSEMBLY.~On Wednesday, Mr J. A. S. Millar, chairman of the General Trustees, g"ave in the report on the work of the past year, which indicated the progress made for the transfer of churches, manses, and other property from the heritors to the Church in accordance with the Act .of 1925. An appeal for £30,000 to cover expenses had met with a very cold reception, only £6189 having been contributed. In view of the Union, Mr Millar said that one of the most important questions which' would have to be con­ sidered was the necessity for uniting parishes and sup­ pressing unnecessary charges. A communication from the United Church of Canada was read to {he General Assembly. Principal Mackinnon said he brought the first greetings of the latest arrival in the numerous Presbyterian family. Dr White moved that tt,le thanks of the Assembly be tendered to Principal Mackinnon, and that the com­ munication from the Canadian Church should be remit" ted to a ~pecial' committee for consiCleration and re­ port to the next General Assembly. The Assembly would have acted more wisely and in accordance with true loya,lty to its Presbyterian traditions if it gave a ,vide berth to the Canadian United Church.

  • Etappe 61: Isle of Skye Broadford – Bracadale – Dunvegan – Portree – Kilmaluag – Uig (155 Km) Eine Rundfahrt Über
    Etappe 61: Isle of Skye Broadford – Bracadale – Dunvegan – Portree – Kilmaluag – Uig (155 km) Eine Rundfahrt über die Insel Skye, die durch Abstecher ausgebaut werden kann (und sollte). Skye ist bekannt als die „Wolkeninsel“ (so auch eine der möglichen Übersetzungen der gälischen Bezeichnung), was schon hinreichend klar macht, welche Wetterlage hier im allgemeinen herrscht. Zwar hat Skye kein Monopol auf wolkenverhangenen Himmel, aber höhere Berge, von denen die Insel einige besitzt, neigen nun einmal besonders dazu, ihre Gipfel den Augen der Betrachter zu entziehen. Skye ist die größte Insel der inneren Hebriden und auch aufgrund der guten Verkehrsanbindung die am meisten besuchte. Sie besteht im Grund aus einem halben Dutzend Halbinseln mit recht unterschiedlichen Landschaftsformen – allerdings überwiegend hügelig bis bergig. Abseits der Straßen können viele Gebiete erwandert werden, und Abstecher in Täler abseits des Hauptstraßenringes sind immer lohnend. Als erster solcher Ausflug bietet sich die Fahrt nach Elgol über die A881 von Broadford aus an. Unterkunft auf Skye: Croft Bunkhouse, 7 Portnalong, (01478) 640254, 26 Betten, ganzj.; Fossil Bothy, 13 Lower Breakish, (01471) 822644, 8 Betten, Ostern-Okt., unbedingt telefonisch anmelden; Skye Backpackers Guest House, Kyleakin, (01599) 534510, 35 Betten, ganzj.; Skyewalker Independent Hostel, The Old School, Portnalong, Carbost, (01478) 640250, 34 Betten, ganzj.; Dun Flodigarry Hostel, Staffin, (01470) 552212, 66 Betten, ganzj. Fahrradvermietung: Fairwinds, Broadford, (01474) 822270, Übernachtung möglich. Die Etappe beginnt in Broadford auf der A87 Rchtg. Portree, die sich 25 km lang nördlich der höchsten Gipfel der Insel entlangschlängelt. Ein kleines Museum im Stil der Jahrhundertwende befindet sich etwa auf halber Strecke in Luib. Im Örtchen Sconser gibt es eine Fährverbindung der CalMac zur nördlich gelegenen Insel Raasay (außer so, bis zu sechsmal tägl., £ 2.10 je Strecke), einem für Naturfreunde interessanten Ziel.

  • 2018 Trip Report SCOTLAND Highlands & Inner Hebrides
    SCOTLAND: Highlands & Islands - June 9-23, 2018 TRIP REPORT by Toby Green and Adrian Binns Day 1 / Saturday June 9th - Highlands A smooth pick-up from Inverness saw us heading to Culloden for lunch and then driving over to the Dava Moor. On route we saw Greylag Goose, Song Thrush, a nice group of Oystercatchers, Lesser Black-backed Gull and a family of Pied Wagtail. As we came out of the woodland onto the moor we had a female Stonechat by the road. We drove on to Lochindorb where we stopped and soon had three adult and two Golden Plover chicks. Good numbers of Red Grouse family groups were seen very well with some nice close birds. A Mountain Hare was feeding just below the Golden Plover! It was turning into a day of chicks as we saw Black- throated Diver with two chicks and then Lapwing, Curlew and Common Sandpiper all with chicks. A pair of Reed Bunting showed well fly-catching at the loch edge. We eventually had to leave and drove toward Nethybridge enjoying great views of the distant Cairngorms, still with patches of snow in the corries. Day 2 / Sunday June 10th - Highlands Our first full day’s birding in Scotland saw an early start and a drive up to Dorback. The drive up gave us several views of Roe Deer and also Red-legged Partridge and a Red Squirrel. Unfortunately we encountered thick mist, but eventually through the gaps we had views of two Black Grouse. We had good numbers of Meadow Pipit and Curlew singing and flying round us.
