🌱Loved crawling around in the mud with this amazing team! Total dedication 👏

🌱An extremely rare moss, which has only been found in one place in the UK in the last 30 years, has been moved to two Scottish Water reservoirs in a bid to revive the critically endangered species.

I was sorry to hear that Ray Brooks has died. In 1999 I was involved in making a low budget BBC documentary about Belle & Sebastian and we got Ray to narrate it. We were fans of his work on Mr. Benn. He did a smashing job for us and was pleasant to work with. Here’s a short extract.
