Argh chaos! Back blippin and making mistakes as to what day I'm on..... give me an hour or so.


.... Phew, made it.

Managed to upload a weeks worth of blips. If you want to see our trip to one of the most beautiful of the Orkney Islands go back in time to a week ago.

Westray is stunning. It should really be on my 'Must see tour' but it's taken me so long to load all these that I can't cope with doing all the link stuff. Suffice to say, if you are ever in Orkney take that extra ferry trip to at least one of the outer isles. Westray is one of the larger ones and like all of the isles it has a character of it's own.

We loved it, we'll be back there soon.

If you do make it there, be prepared to speak to everyone and wave to every car that passes.... even the boy racers give you a friendly wave as they vrooom past with bass sounds thumping.

However, it was great to get home to see our mad duckling. He has grown an amazing amount, turned into a teenage duck, become a soft dusty grey and is starting to get little stubby feathers. He has also perfected the art of disguising himself as a stone at the side of our pond. Thanks to dieseldaisy and family for duck sitting and making sure Nibbler didn't get lonely.
