Flannan Isles

We have now rounded St Kilda, with the rocky outcrops shrouded in a
blanket of cloud. At least we saw the dramatic islands - last time
around in 2010 they were all lost in the mists. We are now making good
progress towards the Shetlands and have just passed the Flannan Isles -
another remote outcrop of desolate islands. But in the fine weather
they hold a certain beauty, especially with the lighthouse perched high
on the hill top watching over us.

ps - our position has not updated recently on the tracker - maybe the
satellite reception is poor. We are about 10 miles ahead of Insomnix in
full race mode.
