The Scots Magazine

9 March 2023

The Scots Magazine - April 2023 - Among the highlights in this edition, you’ll find an exclusive double interview with track star Eilish McColgan and her mum Liz, a true athletics legend. You’ll find inspiration for the month’s best events – including Kirriemuir’s quirky Bonfest, a celebration of all things AC/DC in founder member Bon Scott’s hometown. Outdoors, Polly Pullar urges us all to help wildlife by letting our gardens go wild and Fiona Russell interviews adventurous handcyclist Neil Russell. And Kenny MacAskill unearths the brilliantly bizarre story of Gregor MacGregor, who, after a military career, became a freedom fighter in South America, before inventing a country, pretending to be a prince and fleecing investors of a fortune.
