As I continue to settle in Shetland, a place I have loved since 1971, I have been keen to record some of the thoughts and activities of this major migration. It is amazing how the journey unfolds, ups and downs but well worth it. It is wonderful to be here. I would like to pay tribute to Stuart Haves who introduced me to these Islands in 1971. Mr Haves died aged 68 in April 2012

Oh what a beautiful morning!
It is of course by no means the first, but this morning was bright and blue from the beginning. The usual walk down to the beach followed by Coffee was a great way to begin the weekend. Here are some shots.
It would seem that I have my first Shetland funeral to look forward too. Someone I have known for a while actually so that is nice to be able to help in this way for the family. He died peacefully at home this morning. Mind you with the church out of action for some months yet owing to the discovery of major work needed in addition to the already major restoration completed (you know how these projects have a habit of throwing up the unexpected?)I wonder where the funeral might actually take place. We shall see.
