PS Comet bicentenary web site launched

Replica Comet on the Clyde

We’ve been watching for events associated with the bicentenary of the paddle steamer Comet, and PS Comet bicentenary second newsletter.

When the last newsletter was published, mention was made of a forthcoming web site dedicated to the events around the bicentenary. This has now been placed online, and can be found at:

Comet Bicentenary

About

Secret Scotland aims to provide a common resource where secret, hidden or otherwise notable Points of Interest around Scotland may be recorded and shared, and is modelled after the class-leading Wikipedia format.

There are four resources available to help with this aim:

The Secret Wiki where anyone may create and save pages.
Our Forum where the site content may be discussed.
Our Blog, where news, announcements and items that don’t require or merit their own page can be posted.
Our Flickr Group where pictures of interesting sites may be shared.

By secret or hidden, we’re really just referring to anything that might be described as lost, unknown, uninvestigated, unexplained, undiscovered, unexplored, forgotten, undisclosed, underground, subterranean, camouflaged, disguised, suppressed, or similar. In simple terms, it could just be something (or somewhere) that’s just a bit out of the ordinary, and might not be noticed if not highlighted. As inspiration, these are a few of the existing Categories :
