Coracles. Having a go in a Coracle. That's my aim. Mind, I doubt there's such a thing here, so may have to build the thing myself. :)

I'd love to build a coracle.
Also... make a birch canoe, build a cobb house, own some woodland, camp alone for at least a week, learn to carve a spoon I'm proud of.... get a job where I'm not stuck indoors behind a computer..
 
I’ve always fancied a coracle, to Paddle back to a pre dawn era & learn the old ways.

For one of our camps here (pre Covid) we were going to have a 'coracle build' competition - hazel and tarp materials. I'd arranged for us to try them out on a small lake about a km from the camp so we'd have had to lug them on our back in traditional fashion. Unfortunately, the weather turned foul that weekend (high winds) so it was cancelled and then Covid happened :(

But Priest Island sounds worth a visit too; odd that it has little human activity.

Few Islands are devoid of folk.

Generally means they have nothing of interest.

Fraser Darling Makes Priest Island sound enticing.

(But his real favourite was North Rona as he said in interviews in later life)
