    This old rock was hit by a very severe storm on Friday, the highest wind speed was recorded at 110 mph..

    If you had put up a scrap of sail you could have sailed Shetland back to the mainland!

    Hello Phil, Norway felt like home to me when I visited there many years ago.

    One place which I would like to visit is the Azores, check out the link below, Jeff.
