Hello from Shetland

Post: # 40187Post ina »

Just a quick hello from the holidays!

Something wrong with the weather today - somebody turned the wind off! Very, very unusual in Shetland. I've bought far too much wool already, and books - there's this absolutely wonderful bookshop here... And they have a bookfest every year - I bet it's miles better than the one in Edinburgh! Christofer Brookmyre has been here for it the last two years - one of my favourite authors.

Cheers for now - see you all soon :lol:

Hi Ina,

Good to know you are having a great holiday. Do they have a baggage allowance to the mainland then? !!!!
If in doubt ~ use a hammer!

Unusual weather the last few days, warmer in Scotland than down sarf.
Global warming has its upside then.

Happy holiday

John
