My doesn't time fly! By my calculation the fank is on the 10th of April then? Just before my next birthday! Well done Calumannabel! This means I won't have to lie (as much) about my age. So what's the best (cheapest) place to book into for this extravaganza? Luckily as we have the longship we travel free, shoulda looked closer to home.

To anyone chancing on this site for the first time it would pay to look back through past postings. We are staging a massive dating extravaganza in early April at the South Dell fank in Lewis. The world and his ex wife will be attending and past postings will fill in missing details. We are on a lot of medication!!!!

Methinks Calumannabel needs a new keyboard, for otherwise making a key point in the bridal acquisition trade. Perhaps a the prospect of providing a bride a home across the Arnish moor, called Arnhame, is what caused the confusion with a Bridge too Far. Anyway, Arnish Lighthouse has lined up its prospective partners in the last blogging entry; winking at Tiumpan seems to be the most promising so far. Ruadh Reidh might also be in the running, but whether Arnish is attracted to redheads remains to be seen.

I bought a Mars bar that had been produced in Slough a mere 500 miles away. It was just some fudgy toffee with chocolate round it. By the time it reached the local shop in Swainbost it had reached 42 pence and they still refused to deliver it to my door. Is this the sort of thing you're looking for?

Chrissie Mary is indeed ticking off the days Calum. Mind you she's meeting a lot of new people in hospital. There's been a rush of admissions arising from a sudden mysterious increase in obsessive compulsive disorder amongst visitors. Folks are insisting on unusually high standards of hygiene and then becoming giddy and emotional. We know a blog about that don't we?

Cheapest accommodation would be to turn the boat upside down and sleep under it. Donald can sort out duvets. What sort of Tog are you looking for? Otherwise, the bunkhouse at Fivepenny tea rooms are a possibility as is the Salvation Army Hostel for Distressed Longboat Passengers which is behind Costco in Habost. There are the usual B&B's serving the full Lewis breakfast - don't ask what's in the muesli. Hope this is a help. More info if required

Dear Mike I can see you're getting sucked in to this lunacy. Sorry. I think this is more likely two boatloads of irate husbands and lovers chasing their loved ones over the seas past Skye
