How did you find the ferry crossing?
My app says a 3.9m swell. Trouble is it's just a number to us.

Interesting!
Would not want to put folk off.
Earlier ferry on Wednesday took a different route which delayed our crossing and later crossing.
Lorries were chained down, larger motorhomes were chocked. Our vans (6.3 mtr.) were given shoulder shove to check handbrake.
There was significant roll from WSW winds, pitching with bow crashes, some white faces, food and drinks taken to table by staff....


...no smell of sick.

...great voyage, felt safe.

Years ago we travelled on the hydrofoil between Weymouth and Jersey. Many passengers were seasick, we were fortunate to be advised by a regular user to keep our feet off the floor as this meant that the full up and down motion wasn't transmitted through your body. I was sceptical but when I put my feet on the floor I immediately felt queasy. I didn't do it again. May be worth a try if it's a bit rough.
 
Hi everyone,

I’m looking to see if there’s any interest in a coach trip to the Ring of Brodgar to watch the sunrise on the summer solstice. It’s an unforgettable experience at a truly magical site!

Details:

Date: Summer Solstice (21st June 2025)
  • Time: Coach would need to leave in the early hours (likely around 3:00am) to arrive in time for the sunrise, which is at approximately 3:42am.
  • Location: The Ring of Brodgar, Orkney

If you’d be interested in joining this special trip, please reply here or let me know directly so I can judge numbers and look at transport options.

Best,

Phil

At last - no need for crossed fingers - at least for now! 🤐

Garage has just been on the phone, the new temp sensor has been fitted and is working and the engine is definitely not overheating.
They can't find anything else wrong. 🤷‍♀️

Going to pick it up this afternoon when Neil has finished his lunch deliveries (y)

Ferry was booked for next Monday 16th, so couple nights wildcamping on arrival - Orkney here I come, beep, beep !!! 😁👌👏
