ALMOST 100 guests gathered in the Moorings Hotel to celebrate and support the West Highland Museum in Fort William on Saturday evening.
The charity evening was hosted by Councillor Allan Henderson, who introduced Hugh Dan MacLennan, the self-confessed ‘Caol dude’ who reflected on his early years at school in Fort William. He lauded the prowess of Lochaber in producing sportsmen and politicians on the national stage – and how these professions seem to have been substituted by musical excellence in more recent years.
