Theres snow escape!

Snow galore - Inner Farne covered


Snow covered - Brownsman and Staple Island

Sunday 10th January comments:
Although its some time before we return, Nick Lewis from Lindisfarne (Holy Island lies 6 miles to the north of the Farnes) took these photographs from the castle battlements, showing the extent of the snow coverage. Snow is very rare on the islands, but it shows the extreme nature of the UK's weather in recent weeks, as the islands are covered, in deep snow!! Glad where not out there....

A HAPPY NEW YEAR and BEST WISHES for 2010

The new year has finally arrived and the first visit to the islands maybe just around the corner. Posts on the blog will be 'few and far between' over the next few months but it won't be long before we return and start all over again and I hope you'll come along for the ride.
