Shetland Trip Update

I spoke to Will this evening, their journey to Aberdeen went well, having stayed overnight on Wednesday at Perth and Will phoned from the ship to say that they had set sail two hours previously and that they were settled on board and enjoying a pleasant evening meal. How the mobile phones work when you are two hours from port is a bit of a mystery to me, but that's the wonder of modern technology! Peter the bus is performing well and tomorrow it will be unloaded at Lerwick and be driving around Shetland, apparently few double deck vehicles have ever been used on the island so it will probably cause a fair amount of interest. The party (and the bus) will be attending the bi-annual Classic Vehicle Show.
