Sign Up Plans to introduce Europe’s first emissions-free sea-going ferry in the Orkney islands have taken a “significant step forward” with the award of a contract to develop a design concept for the vessel. Powered by hydrogen fuel cells that store energy from renewable sources, it will be designed to carry passengers and vehicles between Kirkwall and the island of Shapinsay.

Scotland s finest: island-hopping in the Orkneys | Scotland holidays

Last modified on Mon 31 May 2021 02.02 EDT This morning, before breakfast, I was out on the water: silk-smooth in front, and streaming away behind, the ferry cutting a path from the island of Hoy, via the island of Graemsay, to the island where I live, confusingly called Mainland. Though this name creates some conversational ambiguity (are they referring to mainland Orkney, or the Scottish mainland, seven miles to the south across the Pentland Firth?), Iâve always admired the way it subtly shifts the centre of gravity closer to home. By considering all else relative to our own largest island, it resets the dial on what it means to be remote. Remote, us? Hardly. Weâre at the heart of the action.

Former diver who raped woman and child appeared to think he had a right to do it

By Dave Finlay Updated: 20/05/2021, 1:10 pm © Supplied by police Edwin Cuschieri A sex predator who raped a woman and girl during a catalogue of abuse was today jailed for 10 years. Edwin Cuschieri, 67, attacked four victims at different places in Orkney during offending that spanned 28 years. A judge told the sex offender that abuse and repeated rapes that he inflicted on one woman who fell victim to him were “very serious”. Lady Scott said at the High Court in Edinburgh that Cuschieri appeared to think he was “entitled” to abuse women. The judge told Cuschieri, who continues to deny the crimes: “You have a complete lack of insight into your behaviour.”
