@reallorraine Go for it, Lorraine: anybody who can survive a polar plunge can survive the smell of guano. But you'd struggle to host your TV show or even maintain your Insta feed.
Just back from https://t.co/gL7pFHObC0 at Edinburgh Festival Theatre: a much subtler and more moving take on Moggach's book than the popular film, and a positive, anti-ageist message delivered with great humour and sensitivity. What a treat! Don't miss it!

Things you never knew you needed: a Tube-style map of the National Trails. Disclaimer - for entertainment purposes only. We do NOT recommend that you try to use this map for navigation when actually walking the trails.
We are launching a guidebook to a long-distance route that follows George Fox's journey in 1652 in St Andrew's Church, Sedbergh, at 4 pm on Saturday 21 May, all welcome: https://t.co/d5Lgnqb1Sm
"Guidebooks are invaluable on a self-guided holiday. They help with navigation, offer tips about where to eat or fill up that water bottle, and they’re full of local history and fascinating details you might otherwise miss."

While walking along a public road this morning, minding my own business, a landowner at Dalsetter drove up to me telling me to stick to the public road and not to set one foot on his land. I asked him if he had heard of the Scottish Outdoor Access Code but he just repeated same.
@mtnsofscotland I assume this is Dalsetter on Yell, where SOAC certainly applies. That red notice is not compliant and I do hope you'll be contacting the Shetland Access Officer directly (email/phone), and not just by Tweet @ShetIslandsCll - too easy to ignore. Enforcement is key!
