Tides are wrong!

Reckon you could get there. Only down side is you better take provisions for the rest of the winter... which ends in early May!

I've posted this video before, but still gives me a lump in my throat when I watch it. Welcome to Mangersta, Uig, Isle of Lewis.

On a clear day you'll see St Kilda, some 40 miles due west. The only thing stopping you is the Atlantic. It's unpredictable at the best of times and never takes prisoners.

Enjoy.
