About this listen
This episode of the local podcast for the Argyll communities of Colintraive and Glendaruel sees Kirsty and Michael interviewing "Gramps" - long time Glendaruel resident Martin McFarlane - who, having beaten prostate cancer is a strong supporter of the local NHS. So strong in fact that he is fundraising for Sir Chris Hoy's Prostate charity by undertaking a 60k bike ride this September. (Sponsorship details are in the podcast) Martin also recalls arriving in the Glen in 1964 , swimming across the loch which features in the podcast's title , and surviving two major forestry accidents. The podcast also features the usual "What's On " spot and discussions about an upcoming meeting in Colintraive Hall about the recent Argyll Rally , complaints about the sight lines on local roads because of lack of verge cutting and a preview of the process likely to arise from the proposed re-powering the Cruach Mhor Wind Farm.
