CMC Hits the Ceiling

Always put the kettle on first.  It’s fundraising week for the Hoy Heritage Centre in Kirkwall’s Blue Door Charity Shop.  I ran CMC through to Kirkwall early doors for she had the first shift or the week.  Not a good start as very wet and few folk going about.  To seek solace I went and bought a pack of butteries and some bird feed.  Yesterday I found my first goldfinch’s nest for about 43 years.  The butteries are not as authentic as a Buchan buttery but not a bad effort.  However hopefully they will keep my cholesterol up.  It supplements my licking of the Trex. 
 
This is what happens when you drop your camera; this option would have been better in the Sistine Chapel not the Kirkwall Toon Hall.  The extra indicates that it was a pretty grim and wet day. 
 
I’ve packed my toothbrush for the morn the Current Mrs Creel has promised me we are crossing the Firth.
