Reddin up the pairks

Wednesday 11th November 2009
Bovril is doing up - the Highland cow and taking off its Tweed cap?

You've got to go there for the background sounds if nothing else. Guaranteed to raise a few heads in the office, reckons Gaberlunzie, who is sound collecting, the hasn't got beyond the spring blackbird and autumn robin and an excited lurcher!!

But  come on Scotland technology buffs, you've also got to nominate! Catch 22 of course is the code on the promotional jar...damn, shopping needed in order to get Crammond Island onto the list, as bits of it are used as a dump site and fairly unloved, though its quite beautiful.

The Top 100 only comprises 20 to date. Everyone's hunting for that dratted jar! And none of them is from the home of the Highland cow and the tweed bonnet.

The list is currently running from the Attenborough Nature Reserve in Nottingham to the Wandlebury Country Park in Cambridge with bathing boxes in between.

"We love the great outdoors - every single freezing, wind-swpt bit of it. And for 120 years we've been warming the Great British cockles and giving people the strength to go out and enjoy it.

"We thought it only right to start helping the tired British countryside too. So whether its a dishevelled dry-stone wall, rickety old fishing hut or a campsite in disrepair, we're asking the public to nominate a project they feel deserves a makeover."
