Do listen to this in anticipation of Colleen's much-awaited publication of #Orphir, which has just gone off to the press!
My favourite souvenir from #Orkney, found on the beach at #Orphir, near the round church (the pic is from 2021), where we ate a round place-name cake. OOOO!
So close - my mother’s paternal grandparents had 10 children 1877 -1896, all survived to adulthood. Grandchildren in three continents. One son died aged 23, the only one with no children. #Orphir #Orkney #FamilyHistory
