A Scottish Soldier - June 2005

The "jungle drums" have been beating recently and telling me that the new build,care facility planned for Mull has run into trouble. It would seem the site for the project is no longer available. Who knows what this now means for the whole shebang, but I would assume that Mull needs to get it's act together? Either people now sit up and take an interest or the facilities at present will simply fall apart, literally! We NEED to be much more like Lochaber and show those who are in charge, that we do care about our services. I know it's a boring subject and that you can't make money out of health but I'm sure everyone would feel safer if there was still a Hospital on the Island. If only we could recycle the ..........

I'm proving to be a "bit" of a div at this. Maybe it's just cause it's new but I am having difficulty finding other bloggers. It doesn't seem to be very "div" friendly.

Never mind we're here and that's all that matters. What's new from me I hear you all cry. No not wind farms, not renewables but health. The drums have been very quiet recently about the new PCC for Mull, it's proving to be very, very difficult to get info on what is happening. Why all of a sudden absolute secrecy is required one doe's not know , although it was never transparent on what was happening anyway.

On another topic there were lots and lots of rather mad bods on the Island at the weekend! Over a thousand decided it would be great to run about the mountains of Mull for 2 days. All passed without any major incident and I was impressed with the organisation and running of the whole thing. You can see what it was all about at Well enough havering for now I hope I've got this correct.
