Fetlar's Blogger
Posted: Thursday, 17 August 2006 |
Nice to see one of my previous scenic views made it to featured blog!
Busy, busy, busy all summer long. More news soon.
I'll have to organise a painting party soon - I want to decorate. I think Magnolia would be nice. The oneness of colour eh Herman?
As to MJC: Fetlar Primary caters from P1 to P7 and has 4 pupils st the moment. In fact the fence on the picture was the boundary of the school playground. You can see it also in this picture. Some view eh?
As to other previous comments: A mad hound has been sighted recently too. In fact so has Damadcoo. Ruthodanort & Soljey will probably creep over the horizon soon & as for Scallowawife well, wha kens?

when I come to sunny Fetlar, shall I bring my good friend Herman too? I think you'd get along well. Isn't there a Fetlar Show sometime soon? - or something similar? Ruthodanort and I could enter the writing competition 'What I did in my summer holidays...' what about a photo or two?

At this rate, Fetlar will soon be over-populated. Next thing you know, Brochs will be for sale, and crofts in ruinous state will be fetching atmospheric prices. ## I expect that the kids get a wonderful education in a wonderful and safe setting.## Magnolia color? The disease is moving north? Are the planning/health authorities aware of the goings-on?

Soljey & Consort are always open for an invite from Fetlar. Consort has never been there before.

Interested in the history of the blogger. Are there any east anglian connections?

We islandbloggers don't do personal histories, for we revel in the headscratching puzzlement of conjecture and bamboozlement............ in other words - ye're no meant tae ken wha we ur.

P.E. Gray: your village lost somebody? East Anglia? Dartmoor, perhaps?! Or do you really mean "anglican connections"? Low or High? No one has answered my (earlier) question concerning the Kirk in Fetlar: which denomination? Not a Quaker abode, surely?!! I take the Sabbath seriously (and yet the ferry - not to mention (marsala) tea with Challa bread - even on Sundays), so I need to know what literature to bring with me (latinate, quasi-latinate, King James, Greek or Ethiopian, Wesleyan hymnal etc) when I visit.

mjc sounds very USA. The blogger will know what I mean if he/she is from here. We can spell. I don't know about mjc's knowledge of UK geography and the comparative religion. Church is probably the Wee Frees or Church of Scotland. The blogger will tell you in due time I'm sure.
P E Gray. from East Anglia.
Knock-out punch: very USA, eh? I have a wee knowledge of geography, and a peedie knowledge of comparative religion. However, I am curious, and do not take things for granted. Who would have thought there would be a Hare Krishna outfit on Iona (island)? or a Sikh community in Abiquiu, New Mexico? or a London Airport in the Northern Isles? Churches do get "de-commissioned" and change hands from one denomination to another, or even become mosques, or (in Atlanta, anyway) restaurants. Anyway, PE Gray of the Fens, I'll be patient and be enlightened "in due time."

.... and Flying Cat's shades are the reflective, mirror type, favored by the weirdly attired "gangstas" of LIberia, Sierra Leone and Congo (a little geography - this time African - goes a long way). P.E. Gray of the Fens, Flying Cat strolling down Victoria Street shopping or on her evening passeggiata (in Stromness ?) is a sight to behold.

mjc, puhleeeese - I am a he-cat not a she-cat and I'm sure passegiata is an Italian sauce ingredient, so I don't think I'd like to be in one. Or on it.

Oh, the promenading is democratic, open to all.

Makes me glad I've taken up painting instead of blogging. Magnolia, magnolia, all is magnolia! PS I never got an IBHQ survey sheet. Neither did Herman. Is this anti-ness discrimination?

Things of importance will appear shortly or maybe they won't. More likely nothing of importance will appear.
