Tuesday 4 June

It was a very nice day, so decided to take a bus to Ness. The purpose was to have a look round the Old Cemetery, behind Swainbost, for the grave of a man who had been awarded Commonwealth War Dead status back in 2011. Unfortunately, a new gravestone has not yet been erected. It was in quite warm, and I enjoyed the amble through the machair to the beach at Eoropie. Had a cuppa and a piece of cake in the Tearoom, before jumping on the 3.40 bus back to town. Down the West Side, I could just discern the Flannan Isles from 60 miles away.
