Tha Dòmhnall MacSuain no Sweeny mar as fheàrr a dh’ aithnichear e air ais le na naidheachdan as ùire bhon lot ann an Nis ’s sinn ga leantainn tro gheamhradh an-uiridh suas gu mìosan an t-samhraidh. Tha dùbhlain eadar-dhealaichte a’ nochdadh gach bliadhna, ach chan eil stad a’ tighinn air obair bunaiteach na lot.

Anns an dàrna prògram san t-sreath, tha Sweeny a’ toirt caoraich agus beagan chomhairle don cho-ogha aige agus a teaghlach a fhuair lot an-uiridh. Tha droch naidheachd a’ tighinn gum feum e na cearcan a chumail a-staigh air sgàth cunnart a thaobh flu nan eun, agus tha e a’ falbh air turas inntinneach a Dhùn Phris airson ionnsachadh mu mar a b’ urrainn dha a bhith ag ath-chuairteachadh plastaig bhon lot, a’ faicinn an seòrsa uidheamachd feumail a thèid a dhèanamh às.

Tha An Lot a’ toirt sealladh fìor tro na ràithean air beatha chroitear, èasgaidh stèidhichte ann am fìor Cheann a Tuath Eilean Leòdhais.

Donald Macsween, or Sweeny as he is best known, is back with the latest news from his croft in Ness, as we follow him from the winter of last year right through to the summer months. Every year poses its own challenges, but the daily work on the croft never stops.

Sweeny gives his cousin and her family, who bought a croft last year, some sheep and some valuable advice. But then he gets bad news - the chickens are to go into lockdown because of the threat of avian flu.

He goes on a fact-finding journey to Dumfries, where he gets ideas about the useful products that can be created as a result of recycling plastic from the croft.

An Lot gives a true representation of the life of an enthusiastic, hard-working crofter through the seasons in the northernmost community of the Isle of Lewis.
