Can't remember if we visited there or not. I've been trying to remember where we stayed when we were there. It was in a really nice country house hotel, near the beach, somewhere north of Kirkwall, if I remember.

Any ideas?

Bleak actually doesn't really bother me, as I find such weather conditions 'atmospheric'. As long as I'm inside in front of a nice roaring log fire, candles lit, and with a bottle of malt and some nice munchies (and Del) beside me, I couldn't give a flying f*ck what the weather was like outside!

Marco.
