Sea Kayak Trail on Radio Scotland

It is weird being interviewed.

I've been pointing microphones at people for more than thirty years. But when one is pointed at me I have a tendancy to jabber.

Helen Needham from Radio Scotland's 'Out Of Doors' programme, was very understanding.

She wanted to do a piece about sea kayaking, loosely based around my book The Scottish Sea Kayak Trail.

I was heartily relieved when Gordon Brown came along too. When I started jabbering, she pointed the mic at him and calm resumed.

How did it go? No idea. I'll discover early Saturday morning. The programme is also available as a podcast or on the iPlayer, all of which are linked from the programme website.
