Living & Working in Scotland

Want to experience the joys of Scotland year round?  Once you have been to a few festivals and seen the beauty of Scotland nothing could be more natural than wanting to live here.  If so  then perhaps relocating is in your future. 

If so you may take a few things into consideration.  The job market is very much depressed by the state of the world economy.  Make sure that you have jobs available in your specialty.  Thee are many good schools here but if you are looking for the best of private schools make sure to apply well in advance.

In regard to pets make sure that you  know what breeds do well in our climate.  You can check for free  pet advice here or other places fr general tips.

Health care is Good in the Uk but there are medicines that we use that yo may not and brand names can be different. Finally remember to bring an umbrella.  There a reason why our grasses look so lush.

Getting Around in The British Isles

A lot of people coming from other countries wonder how they will get around  when visiting the British Isles. The train system is fairly robust but  if you can remember to drive on the left hand side of the road then renting a car is not that difficult.  Hertz is a well kmown name or you can go with a brish based company and British cars such as here with Renault Car Leasing,  Either way you should first drive around with a friend or a guide until you are completely familiar with driving here and on the right side of the road.

The next grandaddy of Festivals  will be this summer and we will be updating our list shortly.  We apologize for the delay with our switch over of servers and with design.

Fund raising is important to a lot of our festival organizers.  Running festivals are a mission of love.  recently we came across a novel way to both remind people of festivals and causes but make some money to help.   Bracelets are all the rage especially rubber bracelets and wristbands (see links). They can be used  before during and after events and they make grete mementos.  You can even have the dates fo rthe festivals printed on them as announcemtns and th ekids love them with their varied colors and sizes.  Just a not to our festival organizers!
