Guest presenter Louise White asks - is tourism always good for Scotland?

PHONE IN: Tourist Numbers
Police patrolling around the Skye Bridge have been advising people who don't have accommodation booked not to cross onto the island. Today Skye holds its Highland games, and it's expected to be the busiest day of the year and some reports claim the Island is "bulging at the seams" with tourists. We want to know if you live in one of Scotland's tourist hotspots - is tourism always a good thing?

LYNN CALDER - SCOTLAND'S FIGHTING CHANCE
After suffering abuse by her partner, we talk to the woman from Fraserburgh who turned to boxing to help her cope becoming the first female Scots fighter to win an international medal.

SHOULD YOU BE WRITING A WILL IN YOUR TEENS?
We hear from a young mum from Glasgow who says this is exactly what you should be doing! She planned hers at 25! A bit macabre or is she dead right? 

STAYKAYETION
We're taking a trip to the UK's cruise ship capital... Orkney, we hear why it's such a great place to visit.

SAFE MODELLING
Its a story that's baffling Italian authorities and British diplomats the British model allegedly held captive by a gang in Italy. We hear the experiences of one Scottish model plus advice from a leading agent on how to stay safe and avoid being conned.

VACCINATION MYTHS 
A new study from Edinburgh University has found that current methods designed to try to correct the myths around childhood vaccinations, actually reinforce ill-founded beliefs. But as parents, are we right to have concerns about immunising our babies and children? 08 08 5 92 95 00

SEXIST SHOES
Does the design of girls shows prevent them from running and climbing? We hear about one mum's campaign against the limited choice available for girls in the shoe shop.
