Visited island and climbed Ward of Symbister | N.Morters | 26/04/2022 |
Paradise. A warm windless spring day of perfection. Shimmering blues seas and a captivating view down Clift Sound of steep hills and islands. Foula and Fair Isle visible from here. AND SILENCE - just the birds. On the way here I had sadly ruined the silence by a prolonged coughing fit having got a bit of a nut stuck in my throat. 
We had walked here from Meal to check out a possible house site - what a great spot - despite the address being the comical East Hogaland ! | Chris Pearson | 03/05/2021 |
Snow on Shetland! Daylight revealed a dusting above 100m and frozen puddles. Wrapped up in double layers for a wonderful slow morning 1hr30m run with L down the single track gritted road from Meal to Bridge End and onto East Burra. Bitter N wind (only 20km) from behind (until return!) giving a -4 windchill. Sea watching whilst jogging along hoping for whales - fooled by waves breaking on reefs - but one of these days..? Summit commands views along the fjord of Clift Sound - used for both fish farm pens and shellfish farms where muscles are grown on ropes. (selling for £6.25 kilo). The Food Standards Agency checks the water quality. Back via nearby P20 reservoir top (brief sleety shower, sun and rainbow) to hear Boris has finally agreed a Brexit Trade deal with EU -or is it still up in the air?. - as was Santa who flew past going around the island waving from the side door of a coastguard helicopter. | Chris Pearson | 24/12/2020 |
