Johnny Dawes talks about how nice Sardinia is

Last December Johnny Dawes and Julie Hiam stayed with us at The Lemon House as we worked with Johnny on the interview for UP. By chance, we'd been climbing in Baunei, 15′ away, when RAI International were making a documentary about the "albergo diffuso" project, which re-uses many old, small houses in the village centre, and we were interviewed in a bar. You can tell Peter (11:00-11:30) gets frustrated with the perception that Sardinia offers only beaches as he responds to the journalist's questioning, "Can you climb here? Really? But it's too hot in summer, no?!" while Johnny and Julie (11:30-12:50) do a great job of explaining how Sardinia's image in the UK is of the expensive Costa Smeralda, while the reality is very different....the light, the smells, the beach, the climbing...and it's not expensive.
