Lewis won!

The Cup and play
Isle of Lewis goalkeeper waits attentively.
A lot of shouting, a little bit of dodgyness and loads of running about summed up the Lewis-Uists annual Shinty match today. Eve and I have never seen Shinty before but this was exciting. Something like a ice hockey match on grass. The sun shone too which made the event, aided by an island win over the Uists, all the more enjoyable.
Its a great atmosphere in Stornoway at the momant with both the HebFest and the Maritime festival going on at the same time.
