On April 28th I have decided to take leave of my senses and to walk for 22.6 miles between Glasgow Green and Balloch at Loch Lomond, as part of the annual Kiltwalk, to raise money for the charity An Lòchran (https://www.anlochran.com), a Gaelic language centre based in Partick, Glasgow. The jury's still out on whether I will be doing it in a kilt, but it's an activity that I have wanted to do for a few years! There will be a team of us participating on behalf of An Lòchran (calling ourselves The Gaelforce!) and we're really looking forward to it!
Since 2007 the Scottish GENES Blog has been brought to you for free, and I've never asked for any money from readers for it (although I do obviously advertise my courses and books etc), but if you have found it useful, and continue to do so, any shillings, cents, or whatever you have to hand, would be very much appreciated for this worthy cause!
The fundraiser page is through JustGiving, and can be found at https://www.justgiving.com/page/chris-paton-stewarton - thanks in advance if you can help!
Mòran taing a chàirdean!
