A Highland Ride

Saturday, Kirkwall in the Orkneys. Killing time waiting for the midnight boat to the Shetlands, time to update the blog. While Massey was at his meeting at the airport in Dundee, I posted the useless bits of the tent back to St Albans. Sooo..., do we get a proper one or take our chances? Overnighted with friends of massey's at memsie, near Fraserburgh. James makes trailers, really big chilled ones, at 38 per week. Then a beautiful ride through the highlands via Altnaharra - stunning scenery. Overnighted at Bettyhill pub, then the 8.45 ferry to Stromness. Standing stones, winding roads, and eventually found a bed. Holidays and weddings, the place is full.
