Yesterday Mr B and myself attended the Shapinsay School Play. This event was to be a first in a lot of ways. The children of Shapinsay and the children of a Norweigen School in Grinder presented a joint production without either parties leaving their respective classes. How you ask ?

Well by the means of t'internet a few well placed web cams video cameras laptop pcs and an awful lot of hard work from both schools.
The folk of Grinder and Shapinsay were told the story of an unfortunate Bear 'Spencer' who looses his boots whilst on a trip to Grinder. And on his journey to get them back learns a lot about Christmas traditions and customs and why we celebrate Christmas.

As usual the children stole the show with performances from very young pre school children to the older ones. The performance went without a hitch and by the look on all the childerns faces they thoroughly enjoyed the moment.
It was a shame that the people who had wanted to come from the Mianland were unable to attend because of high winds and the postponement of the Ferry, as I am sure that they too would have been delighted with the efforts put in by the children , teachers and all the helpers.

Thats what Christmas should be about. forging new friendships with people, sharing new traditions and having a wonderful time.

Well done Grinder and Shapinsay.

And a Merry Christmas from all at Barebraes Too..........hic !!!
