'The Snooker Final' and 'Lost' are the only things i'll be watching on Tv tonight.
Me too Gizmo the snooker final and probably anything else i watch would be a repeat anyway,suppose will have till watch a dvd which I've seen as well but at least no adverts!!
One Programme I will be watching is the New Series of "Islands of Britain" introduced by Martin Clunes.
The main reason is that he is starting off at one of the Lighthouses where I worked for a while, "Muckle Flugga" which is the Most Northerly Point in the UK. It will be good to see it again.

I really enjoyed the first of Martin Clunes' programmes visiting the Islands around Britain.

But we could, we would often walk around the Station Grounds. The Island is heaving with all types of Birds including my Favourites, Puffins.
We had a TV, not great reception, Read Books, worked on the Maintainence of the Lighthouse, also the most important one Cooking and Cleaning.
We also worked for the Met Office and we passed on a weather report every hour on the hour 24/7. Believe you me there was always something to do.
I enjoyed my service for the Northern Lighthouse Board and if I had the chance I would do it all over again. Mind you I am sure it would not suit everyone.

Oh I see! You would need to get on with your fellow lighthouse keepers.
What other lighthouses were you posted to? Yes I am sure it wouldn't suit everyone but must have been good to be away from everything for a while. Would be good to be so close to birds like the puffins.
You should tell us all about your time as a lighthouse keeper as I , for one, would be really interested to hear about it.

I have been at these Lighthouses :-
Girdleness Lighthouse
Rattray Head Lighthouse
Pladda Lighthouse
Ailsa Craig Lighthouse
Neist Point Lighthouse
Cantick Head Lighthouse
Muckle Flugga Lighthouse
Cape Wrath Lighthouse
Stroma Lighthouse
Holurn Head Lighthouse
I spent most time at 2 of them and they were, Cape Wrath and Stroma. I did ponder for a while about writing book about being a Lighthouse Keeper but there are several on the market all ready. I might get around to it one day, that is if I can myself motivated.
