On the telly.......

STV came out to the Lyon today to do a series of interviews about our catchment project. We had a really enjoyable day, talking at length about the motivations behind our project, and this came out really well in the finsished article that went out just after 6pm.

Unfortunately, our main story, devolving responsibility for certain river management functions to a new organization in this area, got a bit lost on the day.

We will be bringing this out in the papers a bit in the next few days though.

Well done to all concerned for a very enjoyable morning, and to STV for the great job they did.

This photo was taken by our Committee member Jock Monteith.

TDSFB member and Taymount owner Will Lindsay was first up for interview.

Well done Will...first off is always the worst........

Rob and Will Lindsay both came over really well but unfortunately their interviews did not go out. We will see if we can get what they said on video.

Interviewing Jock....

STV reporter David Marsland and his camera-man did an excellent job today, making us feel at ease and quickly understanding what our project was all about.

Back in Aberfeldy........

WE got back to Aberfeldy to find this big pile of 2000 catchments reports had just been delivered.......all then had to be carried upstairs!!
