And it is a wonder for the amount of lightning strikes over the past couple of days has been hardly credible. Despite the stormy weather last night we attempted to burst through the roof of the Culture-ometer by going to see ‘That Sinking Feeling’ on the big screen in the Picky. It was the choice of the Convenor of the Orkney Islands Council.

Tonight’s dancing is cancelled.
