103 of these going up. It is really poor that the islanders don't benefit from these. All the electricity will go South.

We did a quick bit of shopping and then followed the news of an American Wigeon at Scatness. We met with our good friend Penny while there for a catch up

Sumburgh was awkward as they are fixing the roof on the engine room so we didn't stay long.






We had a good afternoon and both managed to forget our worries for a while.
