Had a brilliant night's sleep thank goodness. Quite warm for Shetland yesterday and today – 18 degrees. Pouring with rain here this evening which I was very pleased about as the plants needed watering desperately and saved me a job. Its taking AGES to go through around 2,000 SLR photos from North Ronaldsay!
