""A shop on the corner of a small town in southern Scotland might not seem like a prime holiday destination. However, the Open Book in Wigtown - which has been running for a decade - now has a two-year waiting list.

""The brainchild of author and filmmaker Jessica Fox, the volunteer-run enterprise lets visitors live the dream of running their own bookshop. In the process, it now also contributes about £10,000-a-year to the Wigtown Festival Company's charitable work."" - Giancarlo Rinaldi
