HI,

So who was filming it? Will we see it somewhere?

Another question if you don't mind - is there a Gus Wylie exhibition on somewhere in your neck of the (lack of) woods?

Thanks for the laughs as ever.

Thanks for your comments. As for the film crew; I think it was alba -no idea when of what they were doing it for as I have no tv and didn't ask. As for Gus Wylie, the only prints of his I have seen is in Shawbost Community centre. There's a Paul Strand in An Lanntair and some wonderful prints by Callun Angus Mackay in the nice restaurant whose name escapes me in Stornoway !
