It's official, I'm now in Orkney

The email from BT confirming I will have a line and broadband from Monday, the letter from Scottish Hydro confirming my contract with them, the email version of my new TV license, even the notification from Orkney Islands Council about my council tax are not enough.

This is the proof that I have finally arrived in Orkney.

  1. Bloody Orkney
    This bloody town's a bloody cuss
    No bloody trains, no bloody bus,
    And no one cares for bloody us
    In bloody Orkney.

    The bloody roads are bloody bad,
    The bloody folks are bloody mad,
    They'd make the brightest bloody sad,
    In bloody Orkney.


    All bloody clouds, and bloody rains,
    No bloody kerbs, no bloody drains,
    The Council's got no bloody brains,
    In bloody Orkney.

    Everything's so bloody dear,
    A bloody bob, for bloody beer,
    And is it good? - no bloody fear,
    In bloody Orkney.

    The bloody 'flicks' are bloody old,
    The bloody seats are bloody cold,
    You can't get in for bloody gold
    In bloody Orkney.

    The bloody dances make you smile,
    The bloody band is bloody vile,
    It only cramps your bloody style,
    In bloody Orkney.

    No bloody sport, no bloody games,
    No bloody fun, the bloody dames
    Won't even give their bloody names
    In bloody Orkney.

    Best bloody place is bloody bed,
    With bloody ice on bloody head,
    You might as well be bloody dead,
    In bloody Orkney
