A chance encounter with a research scientist at my last destination sent me on a journey to the beloved islands I call home, scattered to the very north of Scotland.

Imagine my surprise when, on landing, I found the islands to be far colder and rather more barren than I recalled. It was only then I discovered I was at entirely the wrong end of the globe! Much amusement at my misunderstanding.

Nevertheless, I am busying my days rather nicely helping the scientists carry out their research.
