Magazine Article re Homecoming Finale

The new edition of Dumfries & Galloway Life magazine for January 2010 carries a six page feature on the Homecoming Scotland 2009 Finale events which were held over St. Andrews weekend in Dumfries and I appear with other members of my reel set on page 24, almost directly below Graham Anderson of Anderson's Kilt Shop, Dumfries.

Very nice Alex. Is the whole article available on-line anywhere? I couldn't find it on DG Life's website.

Sound like a fun day Alex.

I was there for the beginning but unfortunately could not be there at the finale.

I will be at the January Burns Supper weekend at Ferintosh. Hope to see you again sometime there.

Regards,

Tom

Fame at last, Alex. I was really sorry that I was not able to make it up for the final celebrations.

Regards

Chas
