Her first stop was at Lagg Distillery where Fred Baumgärtner, Brand Home Ambassador and Head Tour Guide showed her around this ultra-modern distillery set atop a cliffside with the most spectacular views. She sat down with Fred and Graham Omand, Distillery Manager to learn more about the liquid and what they've got coming up. From Lagg to Bellevue Farm where Rosalind met Agnes Madden who helps out and Donald Currie who is a sixth generation farmer to work this land. Rosalind got to learn more about their traditional farm and how they have adapted in recent years to work with Lagg as well as welcoming visitors to stay and experience life on the farm. You'll hear mention of Ailsa too - that's Donald's wife. Oh and did she get to hold and feed a baby lamb? You'll have to listen to find out. Finally, where else but to James of Arran? The famous Scottish chocolate brand was Rosalind's final port of call before heading back to the mainland. She met James McChlerey there who told her all about the business.

On this week's episode of Three Ravens we're off to Essex, exploring the history and folklore of a county that has everything. Apart from mountains...We start off discussing April Fool's Day, which has a surprisingly long legacy, after which we embark for Essex!We begin by talking about a bunch of strange historical quirks in the county, including lots of things to do with ponds - ones in which dead pirates have oak trees growing out of their chests, or where, for centuries, people have been drawn out into Epping Forest to end their own lives, or the one where Matthew Hopkins, Witch Finder General, began his reign of terror ducking witches. All before Martin gets salty, jammy, and slightly fishy in pursuit of this week's County Dish...Next, we dig into some folklore, including six different dragon legends, a contender for the title of 'England's Most Haunted House,' Ralph of Coggeshall and more, all informed by some excerpts from Saturday's upcoming Local Legends interview with Ailsa Clarke and Bethan Briggs-Miller, hosts of the brilliant Eerie Essex podcast.Then it's on to the main event: Martin's telling of "The Rage of Boudica."

Dr Ailsa Care is UK based GP with over 20 years of experience. Following some personal health problems, which conventional medicine failed to solve, she sought some medical advice from a practitioner who used a root-cause approach, similar to functional medicine. The resolution of her health issues led her to seek training in this approach. Since then she has completed training with both the Institute of Functional Medicine and the British Society of Ecological Medicine. "When you learn about functional medicine, it makes so much sense to search for the root causes of a patient's illness. I love having so much more time to spend with patients and to be able to offer a truly holistic, personalised approach." Connect: https://drindra.co.uk/who-we-are/ Are you suffering from burnout?

In this episode, a conversation with Ailsa Piper, author of the memoir For Life. When her husband doesn't answer his phone, Ailsa Piper knows something is wrong. She calls their neighbour, and minutes later, he rings back. 'Oh, Ailsa. I'm so sorry,' he says. Five words to change a life. Wanting to flee her shattered world in Melbourne, Ailsa migrates north to Sydney. She makes a nest. She learns to swim. She walks the harbour cliffs to the lighthouse, meeting the locals: winter swimmers and shoreline philosophers. But we never leave our past behind.

Following a briefing at Buckingham Palace about royal taxes and other financial matters that our GCSE mathematics struggled to comprehend, podcast hosts Emmy Griffiths and Emily Nash break down what it all means - and why it has raised some eyebrows. Much has been made by Prince William's reluctance to disclose his expenditure as the Prince of Wales, unlike his dad King Charles did back in his days as the heir to the throne. But why would William have made this decision? Do the royals pay taxes as well as receive taxpayers' money? And what is the Duchy of Cornwall, anyway? Have a listen to find out! While the show's usual co-host Andrea Caamano is enjoying Spain's Euros win on a beach, Emily and Emmy are joined by the late Queen's former press secretary Ailsa Anderson, to chat about all of the latest goings on with the royals - including the latest financial goings on - as she reveals just how much the royals cost the average taxpayer every year. We'll give you a clue - it's the equivalent of a common supermarket purchase! But would you pay for it, if you had the choice to? Emmy, Emily and Ailsa also discuss Prince George's very special 11th birthday, and how things might be different from the youngster in the future when he eventually becomes King - and Emily and Ailsa reflect on what it was like on the day of his birth - with Ailsa revealing her uniquely special role in announcing the heir to the throne's arrival to the world!

Ailsa MacDonald has already had an incredible athletic career, but in so many ways, she's just getting started. As someone who has been sporty since birth, Ailsa has done it all: cycling, road running, triathlon, Ironman, and now she focuses her talents on ultra distances and trail running. She has had such a myriad of accomplishments it was impossible to talk about all of them. But what makes Ailsa such a truly exceptional athlete? Her resilience, her mental strength and her ability to thrive in the unknown stood out to me. She grabs ambitious goals by the ears and wrestles them to the ground. We talk about how she balances her training with a demanding career, going back to races and trying them again, and how her family's stubborn streak works in her favour.

TRIGGER WARNING- This podcast contains discussion on sexual abuse. In this powerful episode, we witness a harrowing account of heart wrenching abuse and manipulation. Ailsa walks us through the sinister web of a controlling relationship and a cult that protected her abuser and still does to this day. Ailsa bravely shares the hardships she and her daughter endured including their walk through the justice system. She has the full court transcript proving the charges her ex was found guilty of, yet the PBCC continue to deny his ‘guilty' court conviction and tell those inside that he hadn't been found guilty. From a woman's shelter to a home she has for herself now, Ailsa shares valuable insights and offers guidance to those who may be in a similar situation, and proves it is possible to escape; not just a cult environment, but also an abusive and controlling relationship. She goes through step by step of what you need to make this escape possible. An incredible story of overcoming adversity to live a fulfilling life outside of a cult.

In Part 3 of my series with Ronnie Moore, we discuss Ron's recollection of implementation of the 1981 Wildlife and Countryside Act, how it came about, and its pitfalls for practicing falconers. Ron talks about his second shot at immortalization after he received an invitation to fly Ailsa on Bleasdale Towers estate. He recounts how the largest scotch and lemonade turned into two, and the unfortunate events that followed. He tells us about an outing where he and Diana Durman-Walters were caught out in less than ideal weather while hunting "Ailsa". Ron describes one particular flight where he believes that after flying into the next dale to find better wind, Ailsa followed two hikers and their dog. "Ailsa" typically took fur, but on least one occasion she obliged her taste for feathered quarry…Ron tells us that story. When transporting "Ailsa", Ron initially had her on a perch in his vehicle…he tells us why he had a change of mind, and switched to using a transport box. Ron acquired "Ailsa" in his early thirties, and was still hunting her into his sixties; he tells us how decades of hunting began to take its toll. Ailsa's death marked the beginning of the end of Ron's falconry career – he tells us about the period of time after Ailsa's death. In closing, Ron recounts the “three big ups” of his life, and he answers my rapid fire questions.
Join us this week as we catch up with two of the UK's leading young storytellers, Ailsa Dixon and Ffion Phillips, to hear about their journeys so far and some of the stories they love to tell. ~~~ You can find out more about the Scottish International Storytelling Festival, which runs each October, at sisf.org.uk.
In this episode, I am again join by Ronnie Moore, author of "Memoirs of a Hunting Falconer". At the end of Part 1, Ron described how he came to acquire “Ailsa”, We start this conversation today with Ron's first interactions with her as he began the process of training her for falconry. Once he had gained Ailsa's trust, and she was ready to fly free, he encouraged her to hunt from the soar as he had done with “Mort” many years prior, and he recounts how he got her entered on quarry. Ron tells us the story where he feels that all his Christmas's came at once. Initially Ron had typically allowed her to take a full feed off of her first kill, but he eventually got to the point that he needed to remove kills from her if he was to be able to hunt for long periods over which multiple kills had been made...he tells us how you went about that process. As with all training of all hawks, setbacks and mistakes are inevitable, Ron recounts once such experience, and explains why he opted to stop using his dog "Linnet" while hunting with "Ailsa". Ron recounts how lucky he was to be allowed into Ailsa's world. and follows that with a tale about why hunting alone is not without its risks. We learn about Ailsa's first encounter with a blue hare, and conclude the episode hearing about Himalayan monkey skin, burning arm pits, the downside of wearing a damp tweed jacket.
In this episode of Lessons I Learned in Law, Scott Brown speaks to Ailsa Zoya Longmuir, General Counsel for Centrica Energy Marketing & Trading and Centrica Business Solutions. Ailsa has been with Centica for 12 years and is responsible for all Legal, Compliance and Regulatory Affairs matters for these business units globally. She is a leading Executive Sponsor for Diversity & Inclusion and Charitable Initiatives and is also chairwoman of Centrica Energy Trading A/S' board. Ailsa shares the three lessons she's learned in law including:· Isolate the issue. Try to advise the business on what they need to know, rather than overdelivering with unnecessary information. · Ask why! You need to fully understand the business and its goals in order to effectively advise. · Trust your instincts. If you have a gut feeling about something, it is quite often correct! Ailsa explains the structure of the legal team at Centrica, and why she thinks legal teams are integral to the success of the business they're advising. Including the legal team in decision making will ‘improve their commerciality in the long run, and give them the ability to come up with more creative legal solutions to make what the business wants to happen, happen'. Ailsa also reveals the impact that the Russia-Ukraine war has had on Centrica as a business and the energy market more broadly. Presented by Scott Brown of Heriot Brown Legal Recruitment.

In this Episode Ronnie Moore joins me to tell us about his early childhood experiences and how they led to his love of the outdoors and hunting pursuits. Ron describes how he came to acquire one of his first falconry birds, a European buzzard he named "Mort" - Ron released "Mort", but that was not the end of their time hunting together. Although Ron is likely best known for his golden eagle “Ailsa”, he also flew goshawks and falcons achieving much the same standard of falconry with them that he achieved with "Ailsa". We talk about his goshawks, "Ratty" and "Kojak", his falcons "Alice" (a prairie falcon) and "Nasty Louis" (a tiercel peregrine) - Ron is natural story-teller, and his adventures with his birds are most entertaining to say the least.

Episode #55 - Ab Moore tells his story of how the Schlegel Villages came to Guelph as he sits on the Green Bench with hosts Kathy Buckworth and Evelyn Brindle from The Village of Arbour Trails. Through consultation with his family, Ab and his mother looked at retirement homes in the area, eventually settling on a development called Foxwood Place; a 50-unit building built by a group of volunteers from various denominations. Ab then joined the board in 1987, helping to secure the sponsorship of the Canadian Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation. "It was evident back then that there were many people in retirement that were finding it difficult to find safe and affordable accommodation." - Ab Moore “I had observed what was going on and felt it was time for me to volunteer. So I joined the board in about 1987.” - Ab Moore Ailsa Craig is the name of the Independent Living lifestyle option at Schlegel Villages. Learn about the name and its role at the Village. "The values that I picked up as a child from my parents and from the religious community in which I grew up, that there is a value in sharing with others." - Ab Moore "Older adults have so much that we can learn from." - Kathy Buckworth Subscribe, rate, and review our podcast on any network and share your thoughts on social media using the #ElderWisdom tag to help others find us. ----more---- The Green Bench is a symbol of elder wisdom. Physically or virtually, the bench invites us all to sit alongside a senior, share a conversation, or give and offer advice. It challenges the stigma seniors face; the ageism still so prevalent in society. It reminds us of the wealth of wisdom our elders offer and in doing so, helps restore them to a place of reverence. "The greatest untapped resource in Canada, if not the world, is the collective wisdom of our elders." -Ron Schlegel This podcast is brought to you by Schlegel Villages Retirement & Long-term Care homes in Ontario, Canada. #ElderWisdom | Stories from the Green Bench is produced by Memory Tree Productions Learn more about our host, Kathy Buckworth, at kathybuckworth.com Learn more about #ElderWisdom at elderwisdom.ca Learn more about Schlegel Villages at schlegelvillages.com

Joining me for this episode are paranormal researchers Ailsa Clarke and Bethan Briggs-Miller, who are the hosts of the Eerie Essex podcast. In their podcast, they explore the folklore, macabre history and supernatural happenings of Essex, an ancient county in the east of England. There have been episodes on witches, cryptids, ghosts, exorcisms, gnomes, and much more. In the interview I begin by talking with Ailsa and Bethan about how Eerie Essex got started, after which we discuss some of the unusual subjects they've covered in the podcast, as well as a few of their own weird experiences. In Essex, as in most places, the supernatural permeates the landscape, communities and legends of the area and we also talked about the high strangeness that can arise from personal interaction with those things. To find out more about Eerie Essex, please go to the podcast Twitter account (@Eerie_Essex). Ailsa and Bethan can also be contacted by email at eerieessexpodcast@gmail.com.

When you visit Stratford Upon Avon, you can stop in and see a place called Hall's Croft. It is right down the road from Shakespeare's Birthplace and is the house where William Shakespeare's oldest daughter, Susanna, lived with her husband, John Hall. John Hall was a physician in Stratford Upon Avon, and is thought to have influenced, if not outright advised, Shakespeare on the many uses of medicinal plants we see come up in his plays. A new study being led by our guest this week, Ailsa Grant Ferguson, not only aims to shed light on the kinds of plants that might have been used there at Hall's Croft, but looks to literally re-plant them. In a project funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council, partnering with the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust in collaboration with the University of Brighton, Susanna's Garden project will plant a sensory, wellbeing garden based on the plants used for women's health by John Hall and probably Susanna in Stratford Upon Avon that includes the same plants Ailsa's research reveals would have been used there by the Hall family to treat family and friends in the bard's hometown. The exciting thing about this garden is not only the opportunity to see historic plants come literally back to life, but as Ailsa Grant Ferguson joins us today to share, this garden research project specifically explores Susanna's role in medical care as she worked alongside her husband as a healer.
