Stay safe and warm!<br /><br />Sarah - how lovely to hear from you. You must be getting Spring appearing there now.... we've tried holding onto the sun but it's escaped ;-)<br /><br />Pat - yes occassionally the ferry can't go. But it is very unusual. Generally I make sure I have a well stocked freezer, store cupboard, batteries, torches, candles, and calor gas heating in case of all eventualities! As long as I have enough food to feed the cat I can survive on most things in the cupboard!Sianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15086990153239265950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-496522256748038434.post-10433186812910582002011-10-05T14:40:57.478+01:002011-10-05T14:40:57.478+01:00Sian, have ever been cut off on

I visited Orkney in 2004 on holiday, and stayed with some friends of friends on the West Mainland. I thoroughly fell in love with the place and have been wanting to return ever since, but it's a long way from Australia. I am so enjoying reading about your life - it's very much what I imagine I would like for myself, though I don't know how well I would deal with the wind and darkness.<br /><br />Thank you for your writing and lovely pictures.Sarahnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-496522256748038434.post-45219808978976877742011-10-04T11:07:27.141+01:002011-10-04T11:07:27.141+01:00I am on the Isle of Lewis for a couple of weeks an...I am on the Isle of Lewis for a couple of weeks and we felt the ire of the storm here.
