The Watershed of Scotland is a line that separates East from West and divides those river basin areas which drain towards the North Sea on the one hand, and those which flow west into the Atlantic Ocean on the other. It meanders from Peel Fell on the English border all the way to the top at Duncansby Head: over 754 miles (1,200km) through almost every kind of terrain. The Watershed follows the high ground, and offers wide vistas down almost every major river valley, towards towns and communities, into the heartlands of Scotland. Walking with Wildness leads the reader through...

Sport should just be about the pleasure, the fun and the rewards - not the...

Noticing and using the Gateways will enable us to pay visits there whenever we choose, and not just by chance or luck

After nearly sixty years of participating in team and group activities and about half that time spent in coaching and studying the functionality of teams, I feel Ive come to a conclusive level of understanding about what makes one team work better than another.

Is it mere chemistry - or is there something far...
