copemech Posted November 20, 2011 Report Share Posted November 20, 2011 Don't worry Mark. I did the bank transfer for your and my copies yesterday. I'll send it on with the bigfoot one as soon as I get it. Oh good then, all works out and I kinda had that inkling that you needed one as well!

outlaw dave Posted November 24, 2011 Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 The DVD and Book arrived today in Vernon BC - A Big thanks to Mairi for making the transaction easy for the old guy. Great pics in the book including one of our young buddy Harry McKay - and the DVD has some really neat footage - Every Scottish enthusiast should have these in their library.

bigfoot Posted November 24, 2011 Report Share Posted November 24, 2011 Got mine today. Not watched it yet but will settle down to it over the weekend. That also means your ones will be posted tomorrow Mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jse Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 Wow. Just got my book and DVD today. They are absolutely amazing. The DVD is outstanding and not only about the SSDT (which it covers extremely well, as you would expect) but about the people involved. The interviews are great and something I'll want to watch over and over. The book has a fantastic collection of photos and history but this is not just a book from one editor's point of view. There are a wide range of contributors and their personal touch is what helps the book reflect the true essence of the Scottish. I've only had a little time to look through it but its obvious that I'll spend many enjoyable hours with it in the future. Kudos to everyone involved in this effort! Jon ps. Thanks again for your help, Mairi. You're the greatest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jse Posted November 26, 2011 Report Share Posted November 26, 2011 Well, after viewing "Six Days in May" a couple of times, I would say it is to The Scottish in the vein that "On Any Sunday" was to U.S. motorcycle racing. In fact, if you squint your eyes and use your imagination, Big John really does look like a mature Steve McQueen..... Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

copemech Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 Got mine and agree it is excellent! I will also mention the fact that if you have not got the one from John "Bigfoot" Hird, you are missing out! Some really nice camera work from him this year, nice blend of music too! Much more detail of the sections, as I am starting to feel I almost know all the rocks in many due to this! And also know not to attempt it! Found the snippit at the end! He needs to put the "PG" or "Mature" rating on, a bit of surprise! "I like the description "mature" ha ha!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigfoot Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Thanks, Mark. I've got plent left this year. The documentary video has made a big dent in my sales. You really need both, they couldn't be more different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
