The Ness of Brodgar is currently undergoing more excavation by a team of archaeologists. There's a daily blog posted by members of the team via Sigurd's web site if anyone is interested in keeping up with what is going on there : http://www.orkneyjar.com/archaeology/nessofbrodgar/

Thanks, Sian. One of the things I enjoy most about Orkney is the archaeology, and this is a short walk from the house we usually rent. The others are the bird life, art, crafts, Orcadians themselves, the beautiful scenery that changes within seconds as the light changes, and the food. This year I'm going for only a week, not our usual long stay, so I'll be car-free and living in Stromness. I'm renting South Flat near the ferry - in case anyone on this link is interested in dropping by for a cup of tea. Janice Langland (P.S. Tuck will not be with me this time. He'll be in England, singing in cathedrals while I'm in Orkney with my friend Lynda.)
