Horizontal rain.
We are in Kirkwall, Orkney Isles.
The gang plank is near our room and we see the pensioners, holding on to their headscarves, walk down - touch ground - and walk straight back on again.
The 6 mile walk up a hill with no trees is off.
Other adventures await. There is the chance to record my Northernmost Geocache. Kirkwall joins Florida, Greece and the Canaries as the compass extremes on my Geocaching Profile.
Clue - it doesn't normally hide there |
I'd even looked at Google Maps and wasn't surprised to find out it was a Theme Bar.

As Paul Calf Said "Its a theme pub, The theme is get pissed" |
The juke box was kicking out rock ballards.
The memorabilia was all motor related, including a petrol pump on the way to the juke box.
The Swannay Brewery Scapa Special Ale was exceptionally good.
A fitting end to the British Isles Tour. We just need 48 hours on a boat in Storm Aileen to round off the holiday in style.
