Thank you all from Zac. I welled up when I saw this this morning.
Watched a documentary about Fair Isle a wee while ago. I remember them getting 24 hour 'leccy. Fingers crossed they can rebuild this.
They will, definitely.
It’s far too important, both for research and the tourist revenue it generates on the island. They are already planning the new build and hoping they can have it open by Spring, next year.
It had 30 beds and is/was always pretty much fully booked from early Spring to late Autumn. To book accommodation there for the peak Autumn migration weeks you need to apply over a year in advance.
Was glad to see in the news that it was insured
A good man…
There have been a few stories about youngsters helping people out, both with and without social media. They get nowhere near the promotion in the news that they could and should get.
Incredible that it could survive 135 miles from the coast.
Dogs are amazing things, our dog Digby eats a certain volume of food a day but manages to output approx 50% more.
I picked up 5 shits today, decent piles. Amazing, they truly are wonderous creatures.
Aaarg…too much information!!! Who on earth would want to be a dog owner
Me, a hundred times over.
Picking up their shit is just part of the deal. The rewards they provide you with far outweigh that.
Ah brilliant , I guess if you put it like that it’s worth it
Only a couple of years to wait, eh Bruv ?
