Louise White sits in for Fiona Stalker and is joined by author, speaker and guide Mags MacKean.

Ever been tempted to ditch your job and head out into the mountains? Author, coach and inspirational speaker Mags MacKean did just that and she'll be Louise White's special guest on this week's programme. Have you ever suffered from vertigo? Despite her adventurous spirit Mags MacKean has and we'll be speaking to Dr Lesley Morrison to find out what to do about it! Louise catches up with Simon Clark - the man who decided to run 5,000 miles around the wiggly edge of mainland Britain and is currently five weeks into his journey! From the simple to the splendid, award winning travel writer Pete Irvine reveals just some of the places included in his latest edition of Scotland the Best! Find out if the current crazy weather behaved itself when we sent our reporter Bronwen Livingstone and her family out to participate in some easy outdoor cooking... Do you still celebrate May Day? Edinburgh's Calton Hill is one place that will be ablaze with colour and light but we find out what's happening further afield as we head to Finland [through the wonders of technology!] Fancy spending your weekend spotting Scarecrows?! Louise will be finding out about a very special festival taking place in Fife this Bank Holiday weekend!
