The Kintyre Forum

Welcome to Kintyre

Take a tour of Kintyre, a beautiful and historic peninsula on the west coast of Scotland, Enjoy the splendour of its villages and townships......

Anyone else seen this yet?

Lasts for about 70 minutes with commentary by Freddy Gillies. Produced by H & M Videos, West Lothian.

Is really good and I'm sure will sell well.

Some of the scenes are superb and the music is excellent - especially Alison's Song.

I've an idea but want to find out first if anyone would be interested before I go and shelve alot of money out.

Would anyone be interested in buying the Welcome to Kintyre DVD direct from the http://www.visitkintyre.info site for £14.99 incl. posting and packaging?

For every DVD sold a percentage would go to a local chairty (I'll get back to you on this one we need to see the charity involved first). Perhaps some of you will be clever enough to guess where? Hint -DVDs...



Anyway, here is the cover and I'll post more about this later.

I would, especially if you could specify another delivery address and send it with a gift tag of some sort.

Yes - this is possible, in the long term, but for now I would rather I just sent them direct to yourselves and you could post on.

Anyway, WC1, you are the only one interested out of over 50 viewings so doesn't look like it is a starter!

Will wait and see what response the site gets over the next few days before I arrange things.

As said before looking to donate a good bit of money through this. I'll be able to comment more on that once I get word back from the ones I had in mind.

Count me in, Davie-

I will have one as well...Apparently no-one has made any pirate copies yet..

"I will have one as well...Apparently no-one has made any pirate copies yet.."

and I hope not or they just might find themselves in court.

Harry - its not meant that way - it is in reference to the local cinema and how pirate DVDs are affecting it and local businesses.

There was a feature in the local paper this week about it too

Nothing malicious and I do hope people buy the DVD it is a great promotion for Kintrye. In fact it is the local cinema that the site was thinking of donating money to if enough people want to purchase a copy from here - I've left a message with them and will wait for a response.

In the meantime if you wish a copy please post here.

David

Hey Davie P

Count me in for one of the DVD's.

I get homesick being stuck away up here in Thurso/Scrabster!!

Cheers for those who have shown an interest. I'll arrange an order and be in touch with you.

If anyone else would like to purchase this DVD please let me know. 50% of the profits will go to local charities with the rest going to the site as I want to buy new backup software etc and eventually a new camera.

Charities I have been thinking about are the Cinema and the local Radio Station Argyyll FM. Both who are always needing support.

I'll get a review of the DVD done over the weekend.

Davie, sounds like a good DVD and also the idea of money going to the the "wee pictures", let me know when i can get one.

Cheers AA - I'll e-mail you all this week with regards your orders.

I've since added this to the DVD review page:-

Neil Conley in Forfar is looking for 2. didn't know how to get in touch with you. But how did he find out about the dvd? Anyway you can order 2 for him.

Davie, I checked with the Post Office for international money orders, and they only have money orders to Canada and Mexico.

Also, I checked with Western Union and they couldn't locate an outlet in Campbeltown (or anywhere in Kintyre).

I'll send you a check when you get me the totals. (Please include conversion rate fees and the total your bank tells you in dollars)

Thanks again

Davie. I want one please.
