When Dany Mitzman and I went to the Outer Hebrides in August to record our report for BBC Woman’s Hour, to accompany my book published by Frances Lincoln, we also made this report for Deutsche Welle Radio, featuring aspects of the business side to Harris Tweed.

This is a time gone past, something the delicate playground that Lord March provides. This is the playground that my friends and I enjoy so.
