Good archeology story on Radio Orkney this morning. Only today to listen to it, unlike the week that you could hear the old "Orkeology" show when it came on. If you miss that and haven't told them about it, it would be a good time to do so. email at _radio.orkney@bbc.co.uk_ (mailto:radio.orkney@bbc.co.uk) or, go to their Facebook page They're still looking to add Facebook fans too. _Facebook | BBC Radio Orkney_ (http://www.facebook.com/#/pages/Kirkwall-United-Kingdom/BBC-Radio-Orkney/31395967167?ref=nf) I've been having trouble getting a link that works, but you can always go to Facebook.com and do a search for BBC Radio Orkney. Tonight there's a program with the Johnsmas Foy from last June, which I'm looking forward to also. Blessings and Joy of the season to one and all.

I don't think you can attach photos to the "rootsweb" emails Tuck. I think you have to post them on the website (wherever that is - I'm sure someone will say.....)

All, I am trying to send some pictures, but they get bounced back. I'll try this short message to see if it gets through, because perhaps it's too long with the photos. Tuck
Excellent. Your blog is a great advert for Stronsay and good to get publicity for one of the smaller Northern Isles. Hope you get brownie points (or a pint of beer) at least from the local community for your efforts. Your blog certainly promotes Stronsay as a thriving community (albeit with the usual small community challenges), but it's a positive representation of life on an Orkney island, which is great.

The web cam at Maeshowe is showing great pictures right now. I usually seem to check it too late but hit it right today.
Ah Bruce! They have you on their site for sure, but in the wrong section. They have you in "Art and Culture." I think, based on the reality of your location, you should be listed in "Nature and the Outdoors!" Well done Bruce. And a Merry Christmas to you and Yours and wee Surrey.
