Shetland - and the need for good stamina...

Posted: 05-May-2012 12:30 Just heard from a good pal in Lerwick who was heading back to his digs to catch a few hours of shut-eye at 12 noon after being up all night long, enjoying sessions, followed by a spot of breakfast at 6am this morning, followed by more sessions. I guess he'll experience that thing they call Shetlag by the time Monday morning comes around. |

Posted: 05-May-2012 20:35 Kinda wishing we'd made the effort to get back up this year, although we've been having a fine time of it in and around Portyree for the past few days. I saw a post on Facebook this afternoon from Mhari who said that some musicians hadn't been to bed at all since arriving on Thursday! |

Posted: 08-May-2012 18:09 Spare a thought for the poor beggars with the Shetlag hangovers who will be on the ferry back to Aberdeen tonight. There's a Force 9 forecast! |

Posted: 09-May-2012 09:07 I've been hearing loads of great reports from Shetland where the volunteers and organising committee are all gaining just as much praise as the musicians, as usual. It's a mammoth task and they always pull it off with such style and generosity of spirit. Well done one and all! |
