The well-known actress, singer
and storyteller, Dolina MacLennan, who was involved with the Scottish folk
revival of the 1950s and 60s and knew many of the iconic figures of that time,
will be in the Borders on Friday the 27th
March to speak about her recently published book, An Island Girl’s Journey.
She's been in Rebus, Hamish Macbeth and Machair and lots of other productions.

Dolina’s journey began in a traditional
Gaelic-speaking community on the Island of Lewis and her Gaelic upbringing has
been a strong influence in the various twists and turns her life has taken
since then.
She will be the guest of Gaelic in the Borders in St Boswells Village Hall starting at 7.45
pm to which anyone with an interest is welcome to attend.
The Village Hall is on the corner of Main St and Jenny Moore's Road opposite the bus stance, thus convenient for buses from Berwick, Edinburgh, Galashiels, Jedburgh, Kelso.
(The evening will
be in English but with a chance to pick up some Gaelic words!) Admission: £2 (£3 non-members), including
tea/coffee and biscuits.
