My Island home

A corner of my garden

Looks lovely. What's it like in January?

Windy and wet

That's what I thought. A bit like the Durham Dales, then, but fewer houses and no hedges to cut out the wind.

On our way to the co-op today. Not much traffic

No sheep either. Do you have sheep on your island?

Is this North Uist??? I'm originally from South Uist...

Is it Katie Morags island?

The tides out, Its North Uist

I thought it was Skye! So romantic. (I think)

There is more sheep than people. We had to chase these black ones off the road today

A little white Bull

that bit might be scarey

I'd go bonkers!

Sure is remote Newist , don"t know that it would be my cuppa tea.
Still it is good we are different, what suits one doesn't suit another!!

You are so lucky Newist, I`d love to up sticks and live out there!

Walking along that beach when it's wild and windy must be so exhilarating.

Brought back memories of a lovely holiday on N. Uist. Loved the place. Could easily live there. Having said that we were recently on holiday on Mull when a recycling truck broke down in front of us and completely blocked the road for 2 hours. No-one could get a signal on their mobile phone and there was nothing to do but wait and walk over the hill to get a signal. OK when you are on holiday but not much fun if trying to get to work.

Although it's remote, I'm guessing the community spirit is good Newist? Nothing like a wild windswept day for a walk along the beach.

This is one of the many lovely beaches

The shoreline looks wonderful, newist.

I'd love to live there! Not on my own though.

That looks so inviting.

It looks wonderful and I'd love to make it up there one day for a holiday. I don't think I'd stay - too lacking in trees - but the feeling of space and freedom must be wonderful.
