In 1990 the KLF and their entourage set up camp on the Isle Of Jura with the aid of my uncle. Over the course of several days they managed to shoot some videos, do some frankly dubious things involving sheep, and then, according to legend, decided to burn a million quid - more on this in a bit.
As far as I can recall the money was supposedly burnt during August 1994, but the earlier visit(s) to Jura were a few years earlier when 'Waiting' and 'The Rites of Mu' were filmed. A friend of mine had a load of clippings from Scottish papers about a load of burnt notes that got washed up and were found by a Policeman (I think?) not long after the moneyburning incident.
