UPDATE:

The bidding for SilWaffStormie or WaffSilStorbie has been incredible.

So far, purely as a guideline, the bidding is up to $100 (or £75.61 British Pounds) and there are 6 more days to go.

Anywho, we have a visitor staying at Thordale so, donning my chauffeur’s hat, we drove around showing off the “sunny” Westside.

Of course, the sun hasn’t shown itself since his arrival.  Typical. But, at least it isn’t raining.  Ok, it is raining but at least it isn’t all of the time.  There are gaps and we make the most of them.

I also took the opportunity of taking a few snaps for myself.

This photo is to prove we have trees in Shetland…..

Beautiful flowers,…..

Fantastic sandy beaches that are, mostly, empty.

And stuff.  Most of all, stuff.  Stuff is good and sometimes very pretty or unusual.

So here we are, driving around, suddenly slamming on the brakes, reversing, stopping the car, everyone getting out and taking a photo! Twice if you are me. I always take two almost identical pictures of the same thing.  I have to.

  

This is the Shetland I love.  The colours are always brilliant.

And there is never a day I don’t get bowled over by its unique beauty.

(My photos don’t nearly do it justice)
