We are supposedly going south tomorrow, crossing our fingers very very hard indeed since due to the wind and tide conditions all ferry sailings tomorrow are 'under review' which is polite speak for 'possibly cancelled at very short notice'. Our local provider generally manages to get one boat a day across the Firth in each direction except in the most appalling conditions so we can only hope.
If all goes according to plan we're driving as far as Glasgow tomorrow, then to West Yorkshire for overnight on Friday. returning to Glasgow late on Saturday so that I can go to the Glasgow School of Yarn ie yarn festival on Sunday and back to Orkney on Monday.
So probably no blogging again before Tuesday but on the up side lots of pictures of pretty yarn and other nice stuff that I might buy or just look at on Sunday and maybe even a few pictures of things that are not knitting related.
Of course if we don't get away I shall be blogging, mostly moaning about how awful it is to live somewhere where for half of the year you can feel like a virtual prisoner due to the inability of modern transport systems to get you away from the place. Ninety year olds sent into space - easy. Dwellers on windy islands travelling at will to the mainland - not guaranteed.
Fingers crossed!
