Having almost run out of places to canvass in Kirkwall, headed over to Stromness this morning, and was glad I did. This is in the morning (admittedly the sea seems to be a little squint in this image) - a sunny day but with enough breeze to ensure things did not get too warm. Stromness is both beautiful and interesting. Although lots of it is built on a hillside meaning long walks up garden paths. Certainly got my steps in, and had good conversations - many voters have already voted by post. This included the very first person I spoke to who explained she had already voted (and not for Labour) but she loved my accent which she had also heard on Radio Orkney.

Staying at St Margaret's Hope presently. In the background are two of the iconic images from the Hup - a large propellor,, manufactured in 1957, which was recovered from the waters around Scapa. And above it, you can (just) see the equally iconic red-and-white Pentalina, the catamaran which goes between SMH and Gills Bay. We thought Spring had arrived in Orkney a couple of weeks ago, but Winter doesn't want to let go its hold - it's been 40mph winds and rain this morning, although it brightened up in the afternoon.
