“…before them were the sands, with rocks and little pools of salt water, and seaweed, and the smell of the sea and long miles of bluish-green waves breaking for ever and ever on the beach. And oh, the cry of the seagulls! Have you ever heard it? Can you remember?..” C.S.Lewis

    We’re booked to fly to Kirkwall on 18 July for 4 days – so hoping it will be possible. I love that place.
