I would say have a good one but I doubt there is any need

Look who I found outside the train staition:
Had the great pleasure of having Fionn and Hamish as our guests for one night.
Picked them up at the train station and we had a great evening with good food, good drinks and and lots of small talk. And I can asure you that none of them left the house hungry
Heres Hamish trying whale for the first time. And I suspect it wont be the last, it is hard to find better meat anywhere.
Both our eldest daughter and our JRT Balder instantly bonded with them.
Thank you very much for taking the time to visit me and my family Hamish and Fionn. We enjoyed every second of it, and we wish you good luck on the rest of your journey. And hopfylly our paths will cross again in the future.
Edit: Have to post a picture of the sporran Hamish had made for me. A totally uexpected gift that really touched me.

I think that's great - it's a great forum where people open their homes, or do favours, for others they only know through posts on it. Glad you all had a good time.

Thanks.
Even though I belive they are more than capable to look after them selves it was great to get to know them. They are genuine good hearted people, and it kind of feels like I have known them for ages.
Whale steak is good, thats for sure. It can be a bit tricky to find of season, but I got lucky and found a really nice pice.

Haha!
A pity I'm not here longer mate. Shoot me a pm on the off chance you're near stavanger at any point this week.
Whale is really quite lovely. And reindeer is awesome too mate. Make sure you try Kolmer... Potato dumplings with meat in. Pretty decent.
And the brunost! So good!
You're going to love it here.
All the best

Ah just saw your comment Andy! Shame were not on the east coast, but currently chilling in a cabin for a week exploring before on our way to a farm next week for moose hunting it so the plan goes not a great fan of the brunost but the nordvegia ost is lovely and smooth
There is WiFi absolutely everywhere in this country so I won't be as absent from BCUK as I thought!

Sounds like you're having a great time, Hamish. It was really nice of Skaucraft to let you into his home.
I've just been camping and I used that Oakenwise bag of yours. Sturdy little thing that.
Cheers.

No worries big man. I got pretty hectic with work that week anyway.
I brought a couple of blocks of the brunost home with me. I was told I was unusual for liking it as foreigners usually don't apparently.
Enjoy your time at the farm. All the best
Andy
