The St Sunniva sailed from Aberdeen to Lerwick but would cover when the St Ola was away for refit sailing from Scrabster to Stromness. I think it might be at Stromness before the harbour was re-developed it is not St margarets Hope. The second one is the Iona.

That's it taken from the Pentalina leaving Gills Bay. I will have to think about your one!
-
Not Dunnet but you are close
-
Should be an easy one.

I have never been there but as weeman said he would have remembered it if he had seen it. I have seen a picture of it somewhere and remembered it
-
The ex Cal-Mac Claymore replaced the Pentalina B. There is a book about Pentland Ferries, called Pentland Hero by Roy Pederson about and is worth a read.

The pier at Gills Bay was extended to enable larger vessels to dock by towing a floating dock to Gills and sinking it in place then filling it up over the next few years.

Pentland Ferries first vessel Pentalina B which was the ex Cal-Mac Iona which was 40 years old rolling a bit in the swell at Gills Bay.

This is great ? Keep it going guys -
Would never got that one caley D! I shoudn't have bothered going to the Kessock Bridge then

Not much of a sunset on the Kessock Bridge tonight but looking at the shape of the hills through the sleet and snow looking west I think that's it.

Most people don't know how to disable their alarms. On tourist kept turning his of from the top deck when I said to him don't lock it. But someone might steal it ? They won't get far I said ? He did that but watched the car until we berthed!

Is the sunset Loch Ness looking up Glenmoriston?

I traveled on this one many times to Orkney. The Pentalina sailing from Gills bay to St Margarets Hope which was less than half the price for my works van than going by Northlink from Scrabster to Stromness. Pentland Ferries do not receive any subsidy from the government unlike Northlink Ferries who receive millions each year! There is now a new ferry Alfred which has recently replaced the Pentalina.

You are right it was taken from the radio station above Braes and here is the view to the west on the same day.

Excellent report IHE I am sure the travelling support feel let down yesterday. The next two home games are must wins if we are hoping to achieve even the play of places.

I never thought of sending them any photos although mine might not have been good enough. My wife used to ask why I took so many photos of ferries!

I hope it's not age discrimination Scarlet -
You have been to many places well off the beaten track Mantis! There will be many photos that I would never be able to even guess. Mull is a beautiful island but you will not notice any improvements in the roads in 30 years. I have never been to Barra or the small isles there is still time. Enjoy your travels we have a beautiful country although many folk do not appreciate it
