The Proof

Mr Rinnes came to visit last night and what a surprise he turned out to be.  Ben had a well developed body – but he was a 21 yr old after all.  Under normal circumstances April is the end of the whisky season.    However inclement and chilly weather meant the nightly nip has still been required recently.  Not today.  Whilst I slumbered (trying to regain consciousness between reading bouts of a Tom Devine epic; Iain Sinclair is so passé) the Current Mrs Creel introduced me to the Botanist.

I sat at the Udal side of our policies this evening and within 5 minutes saw jackdaw, ravens, fulmars, Tysties, dunters, scarfie, stonechat, wheatear, linnet, kittiwakes, common gulls, Gt black backs, meadow pipet and passer domesticus.

Watch out – tomorrow’s Orcadian promises a 44 page DC pull out section.

Robert Crumb is 76.
