The
Scottish Gardener
.
Gardens can have many different functions: some exist to provide
food or medicines, some for pleasure and recreation, while
others serve to proclaim their owners' status, wealth and
taste. People garden for a variety of reasons, and The Scottish
Gardener looks at herbalists, plant collectors, nurserymen,
botanists, artists and gardener's gardens. It explores monastic
gardens, royal gardens, walled gardens and town and village
gardens historically up to the present day. Scottish

Scotland's
Coast: A Photographer's Journey
Following the success of his best-selling First Light, Joe
Cornish has now turned his attention to the magnificent scenery
of Scotland's 6,000-mile coastline. He has travelled from
the Mull of Galloway in the south to the tip of Unst in the
Shetlands, the northernmost point in the British Isles, and
from remote St Kilda out in the Atlantic to the Sands of Forvie
National Nature Reserve on the North Sea to capture the enormous
variety of scenery that characterises the Scottish seacoast.
Some of the sites he has photographed, like St Kilda or the
sandstone peaks overlooking Loch Torridon, belong to the National
Trust for Scotland, but many others are privately owned; some,
like the majestic Cuillins on Skye, are well-known to tourists,
others are hidden coves or remote sea stacks that few visitors
will ever have seen. Scottish

Gordon
Ramsay's Football Hell
TV’s celebrity chef comes out of the kitchen and into
the terraces with the ultimate compendium of footballing foul-ups,
soccer slip-ups and all around balls ups. With clips from
the archives right up to the present day, Gordon proves he’s
just as much of an expert on the pitch as he is in the kitchen.
He’s also just about as intolerant of mistakes, which
makes watching this carnival of the terminally stupid even
funnier. You’ll never look at your Premiership favourites
the same way again after you get to laugh at their darkest
moments again and again.

Cooking: The Best Traditional and Contemporary Scottish Recipes

stuffing, Scottish cookery is famed for its honest, strong
flavours and traditional, unpretentious ingredients. The names

bree; Forfar bridies; apple frushie; and - no translation
needed - whisky and honey ice cream. Sue Lawrence has collected
together over 200 of the best regional recipes, using only
fresh local ingredients such as the fish, beef, lamb and venison
for which Scotland is famous. Scottish Gifts.

decides to take all his friends on a trip to Scotland to try
and see the Loch Ness Monster. The ghostly friends are welcomed

Scotch
on the Rocks
Scotch on the Rocks tells the fascinating story of how the
8,000 ton Politician, with its enormous cargo of nearly a
quarter of a million bottles of duty-free whisky, ran aground
off the coast of the Hebridean island of Eriskay in 1941.
It was enroute to join an Atlantic convoy heading for the
West Indies and then up to Canada where it is thought that
its precious cargo was to be sold. The true story of 'The
Polly' has its own place in Scotland’s social history
and Antonia Swinson has put the story in an entirely new context
for a self-confident devolved Scotland.
A
Year in the Life of Glencoe
Enclosed by sweeping bastions of rock that stretch a thousand
metres to touch the sky, the North West Highland's Glencoe
plunges from the wilds of Rannoch Moor to the burial isles
of Eilean Munde. Shaped by ancient volcanoes, Ice Age glaciers
and the attrition of wind and rain, it is a raw landscape
of awesome proportion, one of the most spectacular in Britain.

On
a Beautiful Scottish Evening
What a wonderful Scottish DVD ! The Scottish Fiddle Orchestra
have rarely sounded more powerful and the new arrangements
of great Scots songs make one realise how exceptional these
traditional songs really are. The trio of tenors sing with
tremendous passion and gusto and make a splendid job of both
the grandiose numbers like A Man's a Man and the intimate
ballads.
