LOL,,,well it's about time. All you lurkers,,,no need to wait until you think you have something profound to say. Chirp in anytime you feel like it. You don't have to post, but it's more fun,,and more educational for everyone the more points of view we hear...or bad jokes,,or local news..that's in some way relevant to Orkney. Think of this type of list as someone's living room full of friends and family. Several conversations may be going on at the same time. Some may be "weighty subjects" and some not. But it all adds to a feeling of community.
