Memories of Fair Isle [Audio CD]
-
To the North of Orkney and South of Shetland lies Fair Isle - a small island - about 3 miles square - which is known world wide as the ancestral home of Fair isle Knitting. Fair Isle also attracts birdwatchers from all over the world, who are keen to see the huge variety of birds - some very rare - that make Fair Isle their home, and also their stopping off point as they migrate North and South. Anne Sinclair and her brother Stewart Thomson have lived on the island for many years and can trace their ancestors back on Fair Isle for hundreds of years.
Together they look back on their life on Fair Isle and recount the memories and stories of this isolated but beautiful corner of the world.
Audio Length is 66 minutes and 16 seconds.
