I saw this on the BBC website last night.
" A Victorian print works in the Borders helps celebrate 500 years of
the printed word in Scotland."

If any of you do get the chance to visit Smail's printing works in
Innerleithen, once the exhibition has come home, I do recommend it: my
husband and I visited during our honeymoon, and ordered our
change-of-address cards on the spot (very nice they were too).
Regards,
Jane
