| 1. Author: buffy Date: Wed 8th Apr 2026. 23:26 I’ve just read this news tonight on the BBC News. Doug Allan from Dunfermline. He worked as a wildlife photographer with people such as David Attenborough. He has sadly died whilst walking in Nepal. His father originally had a photography shop in Dunfermline. I met Doug Allan a few years ago when he was the guest writer at a Waterstones event. He signed my book of his Planet Earth photography. Such a lovely interesting man. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/czx9kvqxeq5o RiP ”Buffy’s Buns are the finest in Fife”, J. Spence 2019” Reply |

I have a vague notion his father (Morris Allan?) was involved in filming some of the Pars` European ties at EEP for the TV companies. I think the films had to be rushed to Glasgow by motor bike for processing so highlights could be transmitted later on the night of the match. Reply |
