[livejournal.com profile] soccer_fox, [livejournal.com profile] gr_c17, and our friends Kevin and Christy had a wee birthday party for me last night. B brought a cake (he'd already sent me a nice present by email), K&C gave me a cool DVD set, and N made a very tasty dinner. We had a jolly old chin wag; K&C had recently been up to Fallingwater and Kentuck Knob, which I have been militating to go see, and told us about that and about their recent trip to Philadelphia. C and N are huge "Project Runway" buddies, so they talked about that and said "fierce" a lot :-), and we all talked about TV and movie news and viewings. B described this program which he had seen recently.

"In 1934 two young journalists [one of them the future husband of my favourite author] paddled from Glasgow to Skye. Wearing singlets and kilts, and with only the inner tube of a car tyre for safety, they negotiated their flimsy sea-canoes through the challenging waters of Scotland’s west coast.

Their dispatches to newspapers and subsequent book “The Canoe Boys”, were not only tales of adventure, but also penetrating analyses of the problems of Highland life."

Two BBC Radio reporters repeated the trip in 2007 and produced a three-part series on it.

There's also a diary.

MOST keen.
