    Local Interest TV show covers the NE Florida Scottish Games and Festival!

    Although it's been over a month since the NEFL Games, I was just made aware that a local Jacksonville TV show had a fairly extensive piece on the games.

    Here it is!

    Funny....the handsome gent in the tweed jacket looks familiar somehow!

    Very interesting, I have now a flavour of a Highland games USA style. Very different from ours, though. Good fun and I think the presenter asked good natured questions, with a smile in his voice and the answers given were in the same vein. Now I want to meet that axe throwing instructor! We don't "do" axe throwing over here as a common practice, but I want to have a go!

    Jock, I don't think he's planning a visit to Scotland anytime soon, but if you should find yourself on holiday in Florida in February, I'll arrange a meeting!

    In addition to axe throwing, we also feature barbeque! This is Florida after all!
