Excitement is building in Dumfries ahead of the Environmental Arts Festival arriving in town as part of the Nithsdale leg of the satellite weekends. This one's in from the Stovies, who are busy preparing for Nithraid which takes place this Saturday. More info to follow on the rest of the goings on this weekend!
Dumfries, Carsethorn and the Nith looked beautiful on BBC's Reporting Scotland last night. Mark Zygaldo was eloquent, so too Roy Kerr of the Ports of Dumfries Development Group. Good luck to the intrepid Chris Nurney... Good stuff Nithraid.

Looks like the Nithraid was a big success with large crowds and most of the boats making it to the finish - pictures to come....in the meantime here is a link to Border TV coverage broadcast last night http://www.itv.com/news/border/story/2013-09-21/nithraid-boat-race/
