Thought it might be about time we had some proper up-to-date blogs for Iona so that everyone doesn't think we are too busy praying or polishing Colm Cille's green-stones...
Absolutely crackin' new year folks...very sociable! It was great to see John's sheep-shearing demonstration and the golf on the 2nd fairly cleared away the cobwebs!
All the best for 2005!

Well, we have heard that everyone is still in one piece on the island despite the best efforts of Mother Nature...can't say the same for the roads, fences and any other items which may or may not have been bolted down!
By the wonder of new technology we had seen photographs of the mess left behind before we had spoken to our kin by 'phone...the lines were still down.
However, compared to some of the other islands, not least Benbecula, we escaped relatively unscathed. Our thoughts are with them.
