The 8th North Ronaldsay Sheep Festival

This year's sheep festival has been a wonderful success with almost 50 volunteers coming from far and wide to help rebuild the 13 mile long sheep dyke.





A big thank you to everyone who made it a wonderful week and organising all the events and the ceildh, no one wanted to go home !






If you think you might like to join in next year,
 here is a taster of what you can expect

Pause for thought

So from all of us here with sand 'tween our toes




we wish you fun and sunny days
