[[Municipality: City of Edinburgh|Edinburgh ]] has become the latest city/region to see a rise in local turfers[[turfer]]s. Turf Insider got an e-mail from one of the turfers behind the rise of Turf in Scotland:

 The origins of this are thanks to [[User: CSL|CSL]], who is a member of our local club, Edinburgh Southern Orienteering Club (ESOC). CSL has been an active Turfer for a number of years, but only recently did the rest of us catch onto this and start enjoying it right across the club! We’ve really been going for it to spread the word, through our club magazine, in our WhatsApp group, and in our regular emails to members, and via Facebook and twitter, so it has really taken off. At the start of the August round, we had a competition within our club for the best points total by midnight, following the (for us) 11am start. You can read more about it [https://www.esoc.org.uk/turf-challenge here]. And we’re about to do the same again, with many more participants ready to go to war! [[File:Insider september2020 2.jpg|none|500px|thumb|[[User: ESOCWalter|ESOCWalter]]ESOCWalter and his daughter [[User: ESOCZoe|ESOCZoe ]] heading off at the start of their Turf club challenge last roundbreak. They did 10k and took a load of zones!]]

One of the things I love about it is that people can do it whenever they like, as much as they like, however they like, so it’s so flexible. My own family were getting worried about me getting addicted, and late one evening I had to escape out of the window to take some zones because they locked the doors and hid the keys! I like the medals[[medal]]s, and am desperate one day to get my [[Eager Ferret]]! I also have my eye on the [[Order of Aquamen]], as we have a new zone in the sea off the beach at Edinburgh. It is not hard to get addicted in Edinburgh, which is a totally beautiful and compact city, with loads of undiscovered zones just around the corner. The photos show some of these, and having lived in Edinburgh virtually all my life, Turf is definitely taking me to new places, which is fantastic. Our zone-setter [[User: Kingslayer|Kingslayer]] has been doing an AMAZING job for us creating new zones in and around the city, and they don’t stay yellow for long! We’ve quickly turned the whole area red and we are now getting other local clubs involved in nearby places like the [[Municipality: Scottish Borders|Scottish Borders]].

One of our members in particular you may have seen climbing the leaderboard is [[User: féarglas|féarglas]]! She’s completely unstoppable and we are so proud of her! In the morning, it is not unusual for the rest of us to wake up to “fearglas has taken 30 zones from you!” or a similar message. She is doing phenomenally well and has so much energy for it, which I think does keep the rest of us going too!

So basically, we LOVE Turf in Edinburgh! We’re so happy to be a part of the Turf community, and we are so incredibly grateful for all the support from Kingslayer and others in the [[Turf crewCrew]], for helping us to get the most out of it. And we’d love to see other Turfers over here on your holidays taking our zones too! Come across any time!

Two years ago I visited Edinburgh and took most of the [[winner zones ]] in the City. I think there will be a few more next time I go there :) Maybe we will even soon see a World winner in féarglas from Scotland? Keep on turfing!
