Posted: Thursday, 09 March 2006 |
Sorry to all bloggers and commenters who might have been having to wait longer than usual for their content to appear over the last few days. There's a been a few problems with servers getting re-built and so on. Hopefully everything is back to normal now.

Snow excuse...
Posted: Friday, 10 March 2006 |
I hope I've made the worst snow pun we're going to see.
Just been watching the weather for the weekend and it looks like the snow that fell over the last couple of weeks could be seen as a light dusting compared with what's to come.
I've put this gallery together with some of my favourite snow pictures by islandbloggers from the last flurry.
Thanks to:

Bird Flu Tests On Orkney Birds
Posted: Thursday, 16 March 2006 |
Here's hoping that this is routine test of "suspect" birds proves to be nothing.
"We can confirm a number of birds died on a poultry premises on mainland Orkney.
A vet officer visited the premises yesterday and took samples for laboratory investigation of suspected avian notifiable disease, which could be a strain of Avian Influenza or Newcastle Disease."
Full story is here:
If anyone on Orkney knows any more or has their own viewpoint please comment or blog.

An island golf course is set to be restored to its original 19th century lay-out designed by the man regarded as the father of golf.
The plan to return Askernish in South Uist to Old Tom Morris's design of 1892 follows a visit by experts to the Western Isles last December.
