Quick reminder to all the rune aficionados out there: Today and tomorrow are your last chance to see the temporary exhibition on runes in Orkney at Orkney Museums - on Monday all the loans will go back to their kind loaners. And I may cry a little.

It's Tuesday and in #Orkney we're all waiting for this #heatwave we keep hearing about on all the news channels, social media and weather apps. 😎 Here is a fabulous photograph from the Archives of the anemometer and sunshine recorder in Deerness, taken by Tom Kent.

Really very very proud that our first visitors were pupils from North Walls School, and that they were there to tell us what we should be doing and how we should be doing it.
