I absolutely love the Scotland Outdoors Podcast. I live on the West Coast of the U.S. and just cannot get enough. Thank you so much. I hope to someday get back over there (once, long ago, I visited). God Bless you all.

just returned from that hidden jewel ullapool .great to see so many foreign tourists of all nationalities loving the scenes(wondering though ,if the spanish come here to escape from all that sun sand and boozy brits, mhmm,nice to have them here.)what fascinated me was the the fascination with our common seagull ,what some of us see as a scavaging pest is clearly alien to others .there was always a camera pointing towards them.i laughingly thought to myself ,"some point cameras,others would prefer to point something more lethal."without a doubt ,viewed close up in a fishing village environment they are very relevant. by the way ,they don't have midgies up there just blood-sucking little vampires ,aaarg!

I'm in Norway and spring is finally happening - I'm struggling with the lack of wildlife in the winter here - its all gone to scotland ! - well they are finally coming back ! Oystercatchers, Lapwing and Starlings all singing their heads off.

Hi there. Mine isn't very exotic or unusual but I'm a long way from home (Hopeman, near Elgin) and the podcasts help to keep me feeling near to Scotland. I came to live in Adelaide, South Australia in 2000 and I love it here but I really miss the mountains and countryside of Moray. I also love cold and rainy weather and we are in the grip of drought and many summer days over 40 degrees!I usually listen on my journey to work (train and walk) and 'Scotland Outdoors' takes me away from the heat and the city streets. Many thanks!!

Hello people from scotlandoutdoors,Just a short note to let you know how much I enjoy your podcasts of Scotland Outdoors! I live in the Netherlands and I cycle everyday to work while listening to you guys. So, while in this typical dutch setting of following the river "The Waal" on a dike heading for Nijmegen, between my ears I am in Scotland! Your stories are brilliant and told so vividly that it feels like I'm actually in your beautifull country! With a smile on my face and in a good mood I arrive at work. What a great way to start my day (or to quote Euan McIlwraith: happy man).Many thanks you for the wonderful mp3 pressies.Remko BoschBemmel, The Netherlands
