I'm lagging behind a bit, was planning to walk a lot on Orkney where I have been for the last week or so. It didn't happen as the friends I was staying with took me out and about in their car so I saw most of the tourist attractions, but didn't do much walking. Difficult to say I'll do my own thing when they were kind enough to put me up and show me the sights. I did get one day out, walked about ten miles, along Birsay coast and across the causeway to the lighthouse on the island. Fantastic scenery. Now I need to do extra walking to catch up.
