It's a really packed episode this month, with features on the Dalbeattie Walking Festival, the community buyout of Parton Kirk and the Glenkens Show, which is one of the oldest Agricultural Shows in Scotland. Our guest is the wonderful Cally Phillips, writer and SR Crockett Historian who runs the online SR Crockett Museum. In his day, Crockett, who was born in raised in Castle Douglas, was as prolific and popular as Stephen King is today, and his stories are largely about Galloway. Don't know anything about him?

The dissatisfaction people felt with the modern workplace was exacerbated by the pandemic, and nobody wants to be worse off after enjoying new freedoms and flexibilities.
