Paul who’s the girl with you?
She lives down the road at Houbie. Quite a sport, actually

Lovely workshop 
is yours the one complete with rusty skip outside?
Lol, yes.
It’s an old photo though, it’s well gone now 
The workshop isn’t finished yet, but it’ll do for now.
Looks nice Paul. I’d happily downsize to that.
Fetlar web cam looks good!
I notice there are quite a few micro wind turbines in view. Have you got one and what are the chances of going partially or fully off grid using wind+solar?
Are there any golf courses?

I only had a brief look at wind power and the capital costs of the turbines are quite high. I think it would take me about 10 years before breaking even. Not really attractive at my age.
Solar would be awesome in summer when you don’t need as much electricity, but dire in winter when demands were high.

When the webcam (situated at the island hall - half a mile from us) pans left and is looking SE, there is a house on the left of the view. That is our second nearest neighbour and is about 100 yards from the cottage.
The view out to sea and the opposing peninsula is pretty much what we see from our front Windows. The island’s on the distant horizon, when you can see them, are Out Skerries.
It’s a bit wobbly today as we have a force 8 north-westerly atm
What’s the internet connection like there?
