Day 8

Day 8 - Last full day

So I took Eddie into the college early, & went back to Nacho to find this on the drive




So I herded them to the side of the cottage



I hoped that by the time I went into Kirkwall they would have gone back to their field - but of course that didn't happen, so I had to herd them back up the track & towards their field & left them trotting in the right direction!  Its been a while since I used my shepherding skills!!

Went into Kirkwall & did some Christmas shopping - yes really!! & then went to meet a lady called Hayley for lunch, who Eddie had out me in touch with.  We had a lovely chat & she gave me loads of useful information about Orkney and living there.  I was already sold on the place, but Hayley completely sealed the deal - I now can't wait to go & live there!

Called in at the public library - what a lovely place!  Maybe a job as a  relief library assistant would do me!!  Also found what looks like a good vets, so very happy!

Went back to Nacho & then eventually we went to fetch Eddie.  An early night was in order as we have to get up at 5.00 in the morning! eeek!!
