Welcome to the Seventy-Second WebEdition of The Magazine.
Hi folks. This is the first of the - now - quarterly editions of the KintyreMag.
As you can see, in this edition there's quite a varied lot in the Wee Drams section.
It's been a great month or so for Helen and me since we last met
on these pages. We took a trip
to the romantic city of Paris, France, saw the most wonderful sights and
visited the most
beautiful places.
Even better than that - my brother Alex had an opportunity to come visit with us for a week! A good friend of his - John Cowan of Oatfield House near Campbeltown - had occasion to do some business down here in England and Alex was able to tag along as company for John on the long drive. Alex, Helen and I had a lot of catching up to do and we had a wonderful time with him while he was here in Farcet.
Alex's friend, John, is a great guy who runs a business from Oatfield House and I want you all to take a wee look at what he does. Apart from his business, John and his wife Lesley have opened up their house as a Bed and Breakfast - http://www.oatfield.org - so if you are going to be in the Campbeltown area, you couldn't do better than to stay with them. Helen and I have already booked up for next year!
Have a good read on Page 2 of this issue to find out all about John and Lesley's B & B and check out John's links - http://www.tomblets.com and http://www.precisionmasks.com.
Finally. Remember that all emails sent to me re: the Magazine will be edited
and published in the
Wee Drams section unless you specifically advise otherwise.
Until the next time
Ca' canny.
Mr. Alex D Forshaw and friend.
