Robert and Liz Meldrum kindly lent their garage to us once again to use as our tea-hut – a tea hut with surely the finest view and location anywhere. Barbara and Nick Morrison helped us in a large number of ways. Thank you!
and last but not least to our very good friends,
the Orkney Brewery!, a prizewinning local business which is located just up the road from us in Quoyloo, and each year so far have provided us
with very welcome and much-enjoyed hospitality.
