I don't know if they do midnight golf in Caithness but they do hold a competition over the water in Stromness.

And I do believe there is a dram involved. A hip flask in each pocket to keep the balance right!!:Razz

Can I come for a short visit and bring my video camera? :o

I'm wanting to film something to show friends how light it is here at the longest day. So, was wondering if there was anything on, I did hear there might be a fishing competition, but no def date for it.

I remember the good old days - midnight bathing at the trinkie. Always popular and seemed warmer those days.

Oh my, I don't think I'm brave enough for that these days! lol I have swum in the trinkie but not at midnight and not when I was an adult. I think I am far too soft for that these days, but if it were to happen I would love to film it! hehe

That's brilliant folks, a few things there for me to choose from. Let's hope the weather is good. It's forecasting light showers at the moment.
Thanks for your help all.
