I`m Leaving, On A Jet Plane!

Well, I`m no`, really...but the song got stuck in me head and I cannae stop singing it, which is unfortunate as I cannae stand it!
Yours truly and himself are off on the island plane tomorrow afternoon, tae stay the weekend with me lassie on mainland. That is, mainland Orkney, Scotland is a whole different country......
I reckon, if we`d been meant tae fly the gods would hae given us a` wings or one o` they propellor things that helicopters hae...since we hae none o` the above, we`re surely meant tae keep both feet firmly on the ground...
So I booked the plane thinking, ten minutes o` hell instead o` an hour and forty o` the same on the boat. Then find oot the plane is tak`ing half an hour tomorrow. No idea why...most likely stopping off at another island...I`ve been on the wee plane afore ye see....great windows it has, fine view o` underneath ye if ye dinnae get vertigo.....
Och well, needs must...
afore that we had tae arrange for a friend tae come and milk the nan wha lost the kid, she has settled in fine among the other goats and big auld sheep, wha` still thinks he is a lamb and has nae concept o` what size he actually is....as we keep finding oot, when he gets his head stuck atween slats in the byre because he thinks his width is obviously nae bigger than head size. So forgetting the rest o` him could double as a dinner table, he tries tae squeeze through the smallest spaces and usually gets stuck or uses sheer bulk tae force his way through.
He is a big sheep though...if ye ever want tae see a sheep tak`ing a wifie for a walk, just watch me pegging him oot o` a summers day. If I could wear roller skates and just train him tae stick tae the road, it would be guid excercise.
Whilst I`m sad at the loss o` the wee kid, it`s fine tae be having the goat milk again. Each year I mak` soft goats cheese, sometimes wi` added herbs but most often just plain. So I`ve tae pick rennet up in the toon whilst I`m ower there. Noo the weather is warming up, it`s a treat tae sit ootdoors mulling ower the view and nibbling on soft goats cheese on biscuits or a mixed grain bread wi` a glass o` home made wine or mead. We need mair sun!!
The past couple o` days hae been what oor Irish cousins call `soft days`, a smirring o` rain and a light mist rolling up the track tae cast a peedie gloom ower the daylight. It`s been mild enough though....one o` the drawbacks against the wee stove is that when ye rely upon it for heat and the oven, it can get awfu warm in your hoose when the day is mild ootside.
After we get back frae mainland, I hae some cockerels tae cull...I hae four o` them left frae last year, and noo the hens are thinking o` nesting they are being a pain in the rear, tae hen and human both....wha`ever said cockerels only crow at dawn was a plain liar! A` through the night these boys will hae crowing competitions. Yours truly is used tae it, but we hae visitors coming soon and I mind in previous years nane o` them getting a wink o` sleep for the noise o` competing cockerels, chuckling ducks and hissing geese....oh, the peace and quiet o` the countryside....a myth, indeed....
I hope a` body has a fine and guid weekend, and that the sun stays warm and bright.

Love the way you write, reminds of "Oor Willie" from childhood and what I would give for a taste of your goats cheese!

Have just discovered this site- yours is the first entry I read and I think I'm right here! Now I can really picture the landscape and the language was just fun to read...though...what's a wifie? Never mind, thanks for this lovely description of Orkney hermit life!
