SCOTTISH BLETHERS
Hosts | Liz Lister and Helen Houston
In Scotland, when friends get together they blether. When those friends happen to be Scottish Blue Badge Tourist Guides you can be sure that the country they are so passionate about will be right at the heart of their discussions.
Contemporary and historical; culinary and cultural; reminiscence and anecdote - from accommodation to zoos, the chat will range across the entire alphabet of topics and issues that are live and happening in Scotland right now.
We hope that you’ll join us - there’s nothing to beat a right good blether!

SB | Episode 39: Scotland’s National Parks
This week join us in Scotland's National Parks as we enjoy the richness of the landscape which is home to such a variety of Scotland's flora and fauna. The Parks offer opportunities for outdoor activities from water sports to mountain biking; ski-ing to hill walking. With staycations becoming so popular in the wake of Covid we look at how the Parks are adapting to welcome the increasing numbers coming on holiday.
