"Striking Views. Darker Secrets. Britbox Original Shetland New season now streaming" Cover for the TV series shows two of the main characters, the Scottish detectives on the Shetland Isles, Ruth Calder & Tosh

What a Difference a Day Makes Well, someone is feeling 100% better and would happily eat all the meals she missed on her day off.   I must admit I do try and feed her slightly more when she’s hungry because she’s al…

A Day Between Weathers Today has been a day between weathers or “atween wadder”, as they say in Shetland dialect – calm, warmer and even blue sky.  It was very spring-like but of course we will all be thrown back i…

A nice calm day - makes a change. Still failing on the minimalist lifestyle front but did some carrot distribution.
