Shetland with Laurie News
January has been an incredibly busy month again. I think I should stop saying this and just accept that life is usually just out-of-control and busy - every day. I've been doing a lot of planning for the summer, preparing for when I'll be out on tour more and will have less time to be tied to the desk. Fail to prepare - prepare to fail, that's been my mantra these past few months. I feel like the opposite of a mouse who who gathers provisions in preparation for winter - I'm gathering in preparation for summer! This has mainly involved work on the magazine that I edit, Shetland Life.

Remember, I love to hear from you too - come say hello on social media. If you've been on a tour, please tag any photos with #shetlandwithlaurieand leave a review on Trip Advisor. If you're from Shetland please get involved and use the Shetland Life hashtag #myshetlandlife as well.
I welcomed my first visitors in January and we went on a very cold, snowy tour to the north mainland where we had a walk at the Eshaness cliffs and even enjoyed some local Sunday teas in the Sullom hall.
My personal highlight from January was some snorkelling that I did along with a few friends. We donned wetsuits and took to the deep blue - it was incredible! I plan on sharing this experience in the magazine, and on the blog so look out for it. We managed to get some amazing underwater photos.

Have you got your copy of the Shetland Wool Week Annual yet? I published a piece in it about the Shetland Crofthouse Museum in Boddam, Dunrossness. The Annual is for sale here and is full of interesting patterns and essays about Shetland's knitwear heritage. You can also go and check out Wool Week on Instagram here.
