A run (Caithness-speak for ‘leisurely drive’) to Dunnet Head last night in advance of travel restrictions beginning to ease across Scotland from this weekend.

Currently loving evening walks at sunset, when the world seems to slowly still and settle.

A few years ago, when I joined my local writing group, I heard about the Pablo Neruda poetry chiselled onto rocks at a little bay near John O’Groats, not far from us. I’ve wanted to see these inscriptions ever since, but on various visits I’ve been obstructed - either by the tide or not quite knowing where to look.

Snow, gales, hailshowers, artic blasts, wind-chill....💨🌨🥶

As lovely as this scene looks, I was actually battling 50mph gales, a freezing wind chill and intermittent hail showers.

Happy Easter from a very wet, windy, wintry and generally un-Easter like Caithness 🙈.
