Shoppers retreat.

Up at 5.30 today. For no other reason to have an early breakfast and to catch up on the weekend papers. Through early to Stromness for a message and happened to see these two folk walking to the Sooth End.

Returned home and started to tidy the poly tunnel which included lifting the last of 2013's beetroot.

Going up to see Kathleen and Dougal now to get instructions about feeding stock whilst they travel south to see grandchildren.

Returned to dancing last night in Kirkwall which was really well attended. Only 9 days to go to the Annual Orkney Dance Fest.
