Yesterday was another gorgeous day so I decided to take the bike up the mountain road to Liset at the south east of the island. Some serious hills, but good whizzing down the other side. The scenery was fabulous. It's so quiet out there - very few houses although it was where people originally settled on the island of Froya. The only sounds were the oyster catchers and ravens. Temperature reached 22 c in the afternoon.
Today, by total contrast, was horrible, cold and dreich. Haugefisk was taking 12 tonnes of pellets over to a salmon farm off Nodset and I went along for the ride. Should have stayed at home and done the ironing because I was foundered. Spent half the time with my bottom up against the range in the galley and the other half doing aerobics in the wheel house to stave off hypothermia!! x
