haha  yes we remember those days when you were here in the 80s - they
went down in legend, some people were just soooo lucky to be here to
share them with us.


As they say on the northisles web page:

Enjoy a holiday on Fair Isle. Participate in the weather and see how it
affects every aspect of life on our tiny and remote island.

Yep, that's what we do round here _participate_ in the weather. :-)
