Blipping the Blipper!

A super day with her ladyship! We met up in a cafe in Kirkwall and His Lordship wisely headed back to Stromness and left us two to browse the shops and sights of the town. We had a good blether, and lots of laughs, and explored some of the non-touristy and more unusual shops, including one selling everything from replacement wicks for oil lamps to bird seed, local bakery and exotic spicy rubs to sugarcraft roses and white enamel mugs! Also called in at the Wool and Wine shop to sample some local cheese and see the most amazing selection of wines, olive oils, cheeses and pasta, together with local knitwear!

It is amazing that you can find so much to talk about with someone you have just known through Blip! We had a great time and finished with a lovely lunch in Lucano's, the local Italian eatery, where the waitress took a keen interest in her Ladyship's camera.

The last I saw of her she was heading for the bus station, but I do hope to see her again!
