Kirkwall by Candlelight

Another day when the 50 foot woman from outer space visited and all the Kirkwallian bipeds stayed indoors. Although this is crepuscular Kirkwall I went through to dance in Stromness.  Let’s face it I’m just a snob.

And, although this may throw Blip central into a state of confusion, we danced the French Minuet.  A dance that was kept alive in Flotta in WWII.  There were few wimmin on the Island; they must have been kept busy.

I’ve also spent some time thinking about my childhood yoyo.  The world population is now past 7.5 billion, but I’m the only one on the whole planet who can remember my yoyo.
