A Break from Gaming

 No gaming or painting for me in June, but I can't complain!

First off, a trip to Shetland, very lucky with the weather, both crossings were very smooth, but two days before we arrived the ferry hadn't been able to get into the harbour due to the wind!

Amazing weather!

We are actually just above 60 degrees North!


Looking North West, next stop Iceland!

The locals were friendly|!


An Iron Age stone broch, just on the edge of Lerwick town.

Then we just had three days to unpack, wash clothes and repack, before we were off for a family holiday, with dogs, to the North Lincolnshire coast for two weeks.

Miles of sand dunes and empty beaches!

Hopefully I can get back in the swing of painting in July!

  1. I haven't made it to the Shetlands, yet. I've been all around Britain otherwise, but have missed out on the Orkneys and Shetlands. Hope you had a great time!

    1. Thanks Mike, Shetland was superb. We went to Mainland Orkney two years ago and had a great time there as well. I'd like to go back to Orkney, because of my passion for prehistory and there is just so much to see there.
