Message-ID: <03fe9560-8300-40af-888e-aa47fce93f03@stronsaylimpet.co.uk>

/From Shani Fox-Hall to Stronsay's Facebook page: /
Dear Stronsay Residents pre Booked for Burns Night,  As many of you are 
now aware, there has been circulation of several particularly 
problematic viruses on the island. We have received a significant number 
of cancellations  today due to illness and concerns.  After consulting 
with the doctor, we have decided to modify the event to a takeaway-only 
format for those who have pre booked. This decision has been made in the 
best interests of all island folk.  We will  be contacting each person 
that has booked to arrange a takeaway collection slot that can be safely 
managed.  Shani, Steph and the Stronsay Hotel Team

🏐 Well done, Netball Campers! 🏐
A huge well done to the 20 youngsters who took part in today’s netball 
camp! It was fantastic to bring together all our regular players and 
welcome some new faces into the mix, as well as some secondary 
ex-fun5ers. A special shoutout to Alice, Octavia, and Roma, who threw 
themselves into training with the older group—brilliant effort!
Massive thanks to Leah for flying out for the day and putting everyone 
through their paces with a great mix of fun games, match skills, and 
shooting practice. I’m sure everyone picked up some valuable tips from 
her excellent coaching!
Great work, everyone—looking forward to seeing what you learnt on the 
court 🏐💪

Big thanks to Stronsay Development Trust for funding the day through the 
Togetherness project 🙏

Subject: [Stronsaylimpet] 21 years ago!
Message-ID: <f2157ade-b951-4e0e-a250-0a028d362fca@stronsaylimpet.co.uk>

It was 21 years ago today (2 Feb 2004) that we arrived on mainland 
Orkney. Here are the first few lines of "/The Fletcher Saga/", my 
account of our journey from Scarborough to Orkney and the first few 
years of our stay on Stronsay.  The attached photograph was taken just 
before the enormous removal van arrived!

"2 Feb 2004. An enormous removal van arrived on the morning of Friday 30 
Jan. All our effects were swiftly and efficiently packed by 4 pm and 
transported into storage in York whilst we stayed in a local hotel 
overnight before setting forth on Sat 31 Jan. The weather forecast 
proved to be wildly optimistic. The promised showers and bright 
intervals turned out to be driving rain, sleet, and snow so we changed 
our plan to drive north on the A68 to Edinburgh via Jedburgh - crossing 
the Cheviots in that weather was something we did not wish to 
contemplate. Instead, we headed west for Carlisle and the A74/M74. This 
road proved to be quite well ploughed and salted/gritted so we reached 
Glasgow by dusk and stayed the night. On Sunday the weather was improved 
but still bitterly cold with lots of snow lying quite deep in places; it 
was especially bad crossing the Cairngorms where only one lane of each 
dual carriageway was clear and even then, quite deep in slush. Our 
progress northwards continued to Thurso and a very pleasant hotel where 
we had a hot bath and an excellent meal before falling into bed utterly 
exhausted. Today (Monday 02 Feb) we drove to Scrabster (just two miles) 
and at noon boarded an almost empty ferry for a smooth trip across the 
Pentland Firth to Stromness - it felt strange buying two single tickets."

Not long to wait until two new pieces of play equipment are installed in 
the Village play park.
Arrangements are being made for the kit to be transported from Kirkwall 
to Stronsay and in the meantime Stronsay Community Council has been 
asked if anyone on the island has Heras style fencing, or something 
similar to put around the park area whilst the construction is ongoing. 
This would be for just a few days.
Can you oblige?
If so, please contact the Community Council Clerk, tel: 616446 or email

Subject: [Stronsaylimpet] Our MP - raising concerns about the radio
 teleswitch shutdown
Message-ID: <ee534e5d-c9b4-4835-b4ce-605d4b037788@stronsaylimpet.co.uk>

 From Alistair Carmichael MP:

*Raising concerns about the radio teleswitch shutdown*

There have been growing concerns from islanders in recent months about 
the upcoming shutdown of radio teleswitch services (which are the basis 
for many older energy meters). The shutdown is due to happen in June of 
this year – and has already been delayed as much as it can be – but 
rural and island communities are significantly behind the rest of the 
country in getting the smart meter upgrades that we need ahead of the 
deadline.

During questions to ministers from the Department for Energy Security 
and Net Zero in Parliament on Tuesday, I set out the issues with the 
shutdown for our communities, ahead of a further roundtable with other 
MPs the following day. In that meeting the Minister responsible 
undertook to develop a plan with energy companies to accelerate the 
delivery of new meters for those who need them.

It is encouraging that ministers appear to be aware of the problems 
people are facing with the RTS shutdown but we really need to see a bit 
more urgency in terms of actions.

The isles have specific issues in transitioning away from RTS meters 
which will require a specific solution from the Government. This is not 
something that can be left to the eleventh hour.

I think this would be a school photo from sometime around the mid 1920s. 
I'm desperately hoping someone may have this photo complete with names 
for the pupils or could maybe even recognise a few of them.

🏐 Fun5z Stronsay Limpets Match Report 🏐

What a day for the Limpets! High-scoring, action-packed games where 
everyone got on the scoresheet—but because netball isn’t just about 
goals, it’s about teamwork, defending, sticking to your player, jumping 
(!!), and putting into practice everything we’ve worked on, including 
what we learned at the recent netball camp with Leah.
✨ Shoutouts to:
🔥 Freya – fantastic shooting and focus
💪 Hannah – interceptions and sheer commitment
🎯 Eilidh – relentless effort and some pinpoint long-range shots on target
🦁 Ula – giving it grhhh with cracking intercepts and great reading of 
the game
🚀 Shae - strong defence and driving the attack forward
Final results: Two wins (9-2, 9-2) and a 2-2 draw! 💪
A cracking day out, with nonstop chatter from the moment we left to the 
second we got back to Stronsay! 🛫🚖🏐🚍🛬

Well done, team! 🎉 ❤️🖤❤️🖤

Stronsay Development Trust Hosts N76, Orkney & Shetland Colleagues – 
Sunshine and Project Updates!
Today, we rolled out the blue skies and sunshine to welcome visitors 
from development groups from across Orkney and Shetland, along with 
colleagues from the N76 project groups in Dumfries & Galloway and East 
Ayrshire as part of the Community Energy Scotland Rural Energy Hubs 
project focussed on Community Transport 🚶🚶‍♀️🚲🚖🚌🛥️
After an early start on the ferry, the group got stuck into a day of 
project updates, discussions and scenic walks/tours! Highlights of the 
visit included the Men’s Shed at the Mission Hall, the boatie hoose and 
tidal toilets(!), the community greenhouse, Beechwood housing, and 
top-tier food at Stronsay Hotel & Pub, featuring an excellent breakfast 
and a cracking curry for lunch.
Along the way, there was plenty of discussion about community 
development, rural and island challenges, and—thanks to one particularly 
speedy driver who didn’t slow down for our sizeable group—an unexpected 
but very enthusiastic national snap survey on inconsiderate drivers! 
Turns out, whether you’re in Orkney, Shetland, Dumfries & Galloway, or 
East Ayrshire, there’s always one!
Speaking of ferries, we may have just witnessed Orkney Ferries busiest 
Nordic Sea sailing from Stronsay yet this refit—proof that when it comes 
to community development, we can quite literally pack them in!
A massive thanks to all who made the trip—we loved having you and keep 
in touch!
