Fiona Stalker hears about Munro climbing from author and broadcaster Muriel Grey.

Fiona Stalker talks to author and broadcaster Muriel Grey and writer and climber Ronald Turnbull about Munro climbing.

Author, broadcaster and Munro-bagging Muriel Grey joins Fiona! And if you fancy getting out into the hills and giving a Munro a try, writer and climber Ronald Turnbull will be giving us the lowdown on what you're missing out on...apparently he's climbed one of them 17 times...Have you ever walked past a building and wondered what it's like inside? Well over the next four weekends, you'll have the opportunity! Doors Open Days is the chance to get a good look round buildings we might never have access to! The event is being co-ordinated by the Scottish Civic Trust and its director John Pelan joins Fiona...And it's not just buildings, if you've ever fancied a nosey around someone's garden there's a huge variety of beautiful gardens to discover under the Scotland's Gardens scheme. Our resident garden expert Carole Baxter takes a tour around one of them with Simon and Judith McPhun at their Laundry Cottage Garden in Aberdeenshire...It's the time of year when many birds are on the move and if you're lucky you might just be able to spot a rare bird not common to the area. Kirsty Nutt from the RSPB is here to enlighten us!
