I would dearly love to go north and cruise right up through the shetlands and the orkneys and maybe even get the chance to visit St Kilda. I have managed to visit the artic and various other places over the years, but the single supplement and the cost in general of any cruises going northwards from here make it out of the question so far.
I did manage to do quite a lot of places in my own boat over the years and love up round the Hebrides very much, but no boat now and those days are over so unless I win the lottery and can afford to enjoy the train up the west coast and then on to this sort of cruise I shall just have to enjoy looking at pictures of it and reading about it. Oh perhaps if I do win the lottery I could actually hire my own yacht and have a competent crew to take me to all those longed for places. Well we can dream cant we?
