Merry Christmas 2025

 

Warmest wishes and thanks to all Ishmaelites who have read my ramblings over the last year and occasionally contributed thoughts, knowledge and analysis to the commentariat. You are all the reason for the continued existence of this blog - were it not for you, it would be like the tree falling in the forest - does it make a sound if there is no-one there to hear it?
Particular thanks to editor mr verge, who painstakingly anthologised the four books of the writings of mr ishmael and his young friend, stanislav, the polish plumber, here to make better life.

Have a happy day, the sprouts should be done by now, and I sincerely hope that you've got the Gaviscon in.

Should you get bored, there's always The Ba', for a taste of Orkney life. Here's a little clip from a previous game:

The Ba' for the Boy's game is thrown up at 11:00 am, the Men's Ba' is thrown up at 1.00pm. The Balfour Hospital will get busy dealing with the injuries tomorrow, when the adrenalin has worn off. If you want to watch the action, here's a link to the live feed:(17) Video | Facebook 

Merry Christmas and watch out for incontinent flying snowmen.
