Old Man of Hoy

Woke up in Hoy; this proved convenient for that is where l was.  Extremely heavy rain overnight and very damp first thing.  Cleared midmorning, swiftly followed by a gem of an idea by CMC.  A visit to the Old Man.  We hadn't been for so long.  CMC herself played the part of a scale factor.  In extras are: St John's Head - purportedly the highest vertical cliff in the UK.  Its title is disputed by cliffs on Foula and St Kilda.  As we walked back we met a few folk off the ferry heading out.

News Flash*.  I have received a yellow card from CMC, who asked me to state quite categorically that she really does like her birthday bracelet.  However, unbeknown to me, she had not seen the oxidised finish on the silver (the one l bought).  I should have bought the plain silver one.

*A financial pleasure for Molly Weir
