> It has been said it is possible to go from Dollar to Glen Devon in 2.5

> When it started to get more daylight after spring equinox I will be 
> encouraging more people to come up from afar to come with us walking in
> 
> the Ochils, and there will be walking arranged and promoted every 
> weekend from then till G8 Summit.
> By time of G8 comrades will have well broken in walking boots, 
> waterproofs, flask and other gear of use on them hills.

> It is recommend to get a copy of the 'SuperWalker' Map of the Ochil 
> hills (1-85137-308-X) from Harvey Maps (01786 841202) as much more 
> inspiring map than using the Ordnance Survey maps setting whole set of 
> hills much clearer on with Gleneagles at top, and all the Stirling Uni 
> campus and the hillfoots at bottom.

> Also we hope to test out and learn various communications methods on the
> 
> hills, from using simple whistles, and calls, to use of semaphore with 
> flags (bring binoculars), or for few hours of darkness Morse code with 
> with flash lights, as well as CB radio. We sure ensure our

> or simply to impose their strength upon the people.
> 
> Inspired by the multiple uses of a strip of turf at Mayday 2000 that 
> gave a focus to monuments, we plan to the construct enduring peoples 
> monuments.
> 
> One project is to ask those coming around the G8 Summit to bring a

> in as well, to celebrate our victory, and foretell the burial of those

> For those interested in majickal aspect of this and other projects

> 
> The practise walking will be one of forums to allow a wide interaction
