• Shetland Tea

    June 15, 2025 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 13 °C

    Woke up at St. Ninians to mist and fog, which cleared a bit before we left.
    We then went to a Shetland Tea. Each little community here has a hall and each Sunday one or more of them will hold a Sunday tea. Everyone is welcome, you turn up, pay your money and sit with the locals or whoever else is around. It was packed out with people queuing for seats. This was a father's day special with Soup and Sweet aswell as local musicians playing. It was lovely tattie and vegetable soup and rhubarb crumble and custard. Rhubarb is a bit of a Shetland thing apparently.
    We are now at a new campsite beside a Loch listening to the curlews bubbling, wonderful.
