Just loaded the fifth part of my Round Britain video on YouTube

Many thanks Roger. Fantastic summary of the area , Muckle Flugga on the bucket list, unfortunately Sun loving SWMBO yet to be convinced.
Admittedly the weather looked Drecht (apologies for spelling) it appears I had better weather sailing along the Dumfries coast this week - temperatures apart. Files too big to load.
 
That word is subject to a bit of argument SaltyC. I spell it DREICH but I am often told that the I and E should be reversed. Auto correct doesn't usually recognize either so it's no help.

Pronounced DREECH with the ch as in loch and not lock. Sometimes people say that English speakers cannot pronounce th ch sounds but this is a fallacy. As Billy Connolly said at the time of the Gulf war,
"For years the newsreaders on the BBC have been mispronouncing the ch sound but now with places like Bahrain in the news every day we find that the wee sods can pronounce it perfectly. So I'll not be letting anyone away with LOCK for loch again."

Spelling was never my strong point. :)
