I stand correct for my most grievous errors and will endeavor to mend my errant ways...(said with some degree of seriousness)...Now if I can get my fingers to behave!

Orcadians is the correct term of reference. I tend to use "Orcadians" when speaking about people born in Orkney, and "orkney folk" as a more general term to include those of us who are incomers. Although I know some of the incomers also consider themselves Orcadian but that's a whole 'nother topic we discussed some months back! :-) Sian Graemsay

Hi, I know that I don't contribute often to the message board but if my memory serves me correctly, isn't the correct term for an inhabitant born outside Orkney "Ferry Louper"? Regards, Ron
