THE
MAGAZINE...
...FOR
SCOTS EVERYWHERE
___________//___________
"Magazine"- defined as 'a periodical publication
containing articles, stories, etc. usu. with photographs,
illustrations, etc' (concise
Oxford
Dictionary)... This, is a fair description of what
this section of 'find-it-in-scotland '
is.
...Also defined as 'a store for
explosives'. THIS is NOT! We want to present items
of indolent interest, of pastoral pleasures, of careless
curiosity. We want to amuse, to attract, to divert and engross:
to fill you with fragrant fascinations, with deeds of
derring-do and legends of life and love. We want you to want
our wee Magazine, because it amuses you. There are enough
problems and nasties in day-to-day life already; read on, and
enjoy!
*****
Scottish Heartbeat is, as
defined above, a publication. It's not,
though, a periodical. Rather, it's ongoing. As
items of interest come up, we put them in. Each new item will
go to the top of the list on its respective page, but in the
normal course of events, none will be removed. And we already
have eight main sections within the Mag., with more in the
pipeline: so far, we have...
...
Wee Bits (snippets of
all sorts); Scottish Names (in
three Sub-sections); Beauty of
Scotland; Scots Myths (and
legends); Scots Firsts (not
just inventions, either); Speaking Scots (see's a
haudie,eh!); Scottish Buildings
(from the rich to the poor, and the sublime to the
ridiculous); and Travels in
Scotland (Wullie, your co-host,
describing his waanderrrs aboot the laand)
******
So please, read on; hopefully, there
will be items that interest you; some that may surprise
you; some, you find hard to believe. Feel free to make
comments, either by e-mail to us at info@finditinscotland.com ,
OR by
