Happy Birthday for the 16th April Ruthodanort!
Happy Birthday to a thirty something mother of four born in Fife, brought up in Orkney, and living in Unst.
Only 87? Really?
I think she may have been worried about which image I could have posted from the extensive collection of embarrassing moments.
Septic Peg anyone?

So is this the shape of things to come? Bloggers' pictures speculatively put on the site in the hope of catching Prince William. Funny how it didn't happen before. Top fank totty though!
donald from in a darkened room
Aha! I see you found the beach!
Hazel from sitting in my usual place
Happy birthday to Ruthodanort - now if you could just give me your Folk Festival tickets which you won't need cos you're becoming a film star up in Unst.
Soljey from Shetland Mainland
Soljey, sorry didnt get ANY tickets. I had other things on my mind, didn't get my form in, and ended up just with membership. Which is fine by me this year.
Ruthodanort from Unst
Oh well, they'll get to meet Scallowawife at least.
Flying Cat from perched on an old bag
FC, do they have membership to the club? Hope so, then we can meet for a coffee/beer/sumthin between concerty things.
Ruthodanort from Unst
so far NONE of us will be at any of the concerts we will all be stuck in the bar between concerty thingys! never mind. (just who IS going to the Folk Festival?)
scallowawife from in the huff
Maybe the folk festival's gone all corporative!! I don't know anyone who's got tickets either. Unless we go to Skerries.
soljey from Shetland Mainland
I'm not - but I can see Skerries from here.
Muness from Fetlar
Is that really Ruthiebabe? Corr what a corker of a babe. What month is Ruthiebabe in the Island Blogging Calendar? When will that Northern brazen hussy Scallowawife be posing for her photo. ??? Miss June eh? IB's Calendar Girls, what a thought?
Tws from Standing Back in Amazement
Miss take perhaps, or Miss represented, or Miss shapen even? Who knows.
scallowawife from lyin on da beach, in da rain
Why is Scallowawife in a huff? Was it something I said? Please say it wasn't. *meeeep*
Flying Cat from saying sorry to scallowawife
Why just girls, Tws? Fellas too, I think! Either way I'm sure we'd all get a few surprises. How about yourself for Mr August - you could show off your midge bites. You could strategically position your dog in the photo if you wanted company.
Jill from camera-shy in EK
What a great idea Jill, maybe we'll get a view of Muness Views, and Anne from IBHQ, and Carol from France can pose on the bonnet of her new car, Oui?
Tws from On the Croft looking after poor Getoffthe
Surely Scallowawife could pose on the bonnet of her new (chocolate hiding) limo!
Muness from Fetlar
still no tickets - thats why I'm in the huff FC! ever hopeful of getting some but most of my friends not getting! Muness - only if I can pose avec toi...an I'd share my chocolates after.
scallowawife from waitin for the post
Is that a promise? Took six months last time you promised me anything before it came to fruition.
Muness from Fetlar
Hi scallowawife - the only tickets we managed to get involve a ferry trip to (ssshhh) Yell. Don't tell Muness, he'll have the border patrols out for us.
undercover from sneaking into (whisper it) yell
I don't want to upset anyone, but my pu's have had their tickets for a week now....is this favouritism towards foreigners?
Flying Cat from in sympathy
still no tickets...
scallowawife from by the post box
I looked at the Festival website, and copied this piece of info for yoos all: "We are currently processing hundreds of ticket application forms. Tickets have been attached to all forms received to date, but the time-consuming bit is processing payment. Therefore there may be a delay in you receiving your tickets in the post. Please be assured that we will contact you if there are any problems with the tickets you requested. Thank you for your patience." Hope this helps de-stress u Scallowawife!
Ruthodanort from Unst
Ruthiebabe being helpful now. Is the whole world being turned upside down? Is this the new improved model of Ruthodanort that we all feared? It'll never last!!!
Tws from My Shedlands
It's all very well this de-stressing idea, but, it's only a week and a peerie mootie bit away!
Flying Cat from nose in Shetland Dictionary
Thursday - still no tickets
scallowawife from about to lynch the postie
tickets arived - friday.At last! got one for you Ruthieodanort
scallowawife from huggin da bewildered postie
May the world rejoice. Talk about pain in the neck!
Muness from Fetlar
A long time later......Yes, that is a great idea ruthodanort....how will it be done? Apart from you spotting the earrings of course....no probs there then...
Flying Cat from not-quite-in-Big Cage
What earrings FC? I could say I would wear a specific pair of earrings myself but I am a very forgetful person and would probably turn up with the wrong ones or none at all.
Ruthodanort from Unst
The groatiebuckie earrings as featured on my less-and-less popular blog......
Flying Cat from not-quite-in-Big Cage
I'm wearing 3 earrings in each ear; all silver, and haven't decided whether to change them or not. might not wear anything else as nothing seems to fit.. can Anne @ IBHQ not give us some badge of identification?
scallowawife from in me wardrobe - well not actually in as too fat
oops. sorry. goin for a look noo FC.
Ruthodanort from Unst
ok, seen them. Me n Scallowawife will keep a watch!
Ruthodanort from Unst
Surely an ID badge wouldn’t be required? I would have thought that it would be easy to spot an Island Blogger in a crowd. He or she will be the one who’s suave, sophisticated and drawing admiring glances from members of the opposite sex…
Anne from IBHQ
I should point out Anne that you are absolutely right. Which is why Scallowawife and myself need no such ID, but as it is not FC going but the pu's then we will need a little help, in the form of the earrings of course.
Ruthodanort from Unst
Anne, you're on the ball today, very funny, although totally inacurate. Maybe that is why it is soooo funny. hahaha hehehe.
Tws from On the floor laughing
And the earrings worked!!! FC, we had a great chat with your PU's. Hope Big Cage has been ok.
Ruthodanort from Unst
Things of importance will appear shortly or maybe they won't. More likely nothing of importance will appear.
