It's Kirkwall Michael, in Orkney and the flight you did is the shortest flight in the world! Papa Westray to Westray.
I love your podcast but it is a little distracting when davina says "can I just say something" so frequently x
Hi Davina and Michael, I discovered your podcasts this morning and am really enjoying them. I saw Tim Minchin too, in Edinburgh. He was superb! The bamboo socks are my absolute favourite!!! I'm a Podiatrist and recommend bamboo socks all the time to patients with chilblains, Raynauds or sweaty feet. So top tip as I am frugal too, TKMAXX always have them in various styles too. Bargain.
