  • This week we're in the Outer Hebrides as we visit the islands of Harris and Lewis. Both very different but both equally spectacular. After our week in the Western Isles it was strange to be in a big town, and we made the most of our time in Stornoway before heading cross country to visit a beach with a bell...
    We also explore the island's Honesty Economy.. where there are shops, booths and boxes at the side of the road where you can buy souvenirs, essentials and even clothes and leave your payment in the honesty box..
    Wouldn't work in Methil !!
    A huge thank you to everyone who's supported our wee channel so far, if you'd like to help support our wee adventures you can do it through through our Ko-Fi or Patreon.
    All our videos are hand made from 100% organic ingredients ;). Our content is mostly filmed on a GoPro 11 with a Rode fluffy microphone to keep the wind noise down, with occasional bits on an iPhone13. We also use a DJI Mini 3 drone which we're loving getting to grips with.
    We make our own music using GarageBand and the videos are edited in iMovie.
    If you'd like to buy DeNiro a biscuit (and he's a good boy, honest) you can via our Ko-Fi link at www.ko-fi.com/S....
    If you'd like to become a patron of our wee channel we also have a patreon at / scotlandonashoestring
    We also have an Etsy shop where we sell some of our hand made items. It's at dandbbythesea....

      I agree the 2nd hat brought out the blue in Bex’s eyes.

    Thank you for showing us around - all brilliant as ever. We Freecycled our old cooker to some people who moved to Stornaway a few years ago- interesting to see the place. Re RNLI - was lucky enough to go on a guided tour of their Poole HQ recently and would really recommend it to anyone. Really informative - they even have their own hotel you can stay if needed. Such a great charity.

    Harris and Lewis, sign me up! I would go just to visit with the Border Collie. Hebridean holiday was a cracken hit!

    Oooh the Harris tweed honesty shop looks like heaven! Hope you bought the pink cap, Bex. Suits you!

    I’m envious as usual.
    Your Harris tweed creations are quite beautiful.
    I hope Bex bought a hat (or2)
    Those burgers made me wish I had some.
    You could set up Daisy by the road and sell lunches to the tourists.

    Great content loved the 2 wee honestly cupboards near the end what a good idea. Got to say the highlight was Ian in his Unicorn hairband suits you pal lol. Take care

    Thoroughly enjoyed that.
    Did you manage to find some tweed? I saw a few items I'd certainly like.
    Appreciate you bringing us along. Completely understand the postage issue.
    The thought of ordering the coco for our holidays from England makes me shudder a bit.
    Enjoy your week 🦋🌻

    07:06 I am sooo embarrassed! 😧 I've just realised that I've been calling you Graeme, not Iain. Mea culpa. I'm so sorry. I'll blame it on old age, and watching too many RUclips videos. 😮😝😂😘🤗
