Spring is late in coming to Colintraive & Glendaruel this year  so after a wet and windy winter, Kirsty and Michael talk weather and specifically the effect it may have on local tourism following  the closure of part of the Cowal and Loch Lomond Way, a long distance path founded locally but suddenly blocked by fallen and uprooted trees.    They also discuss   the impending threat to the future of the Glen Village Hall  for whilst  the British Gas CEO earned £8.2 million last year, this  tiny hall run by volunteers and used by local clubs , is in difficulty  largely because of Scottish Gas electricity bills  of £1500 a month and more.  Finally  Kirsty talks to Claire Banner about taking over, with her husband Joe, the Colintraive  Hotel just a few short months before the pandemic struck in March 2020  and how she views lockdown four years on, with the hotel once again a thriving  and welcoming venue for visitors and locals alike.   Email Kirsty & Michael at [email protected] with comments, ideas and suggestion for this local ColGlen Podcast
