Our croft developments and what we are trying to produce on the edge of the North Atlantic Ocean.
The Gunnera war
When we bought the croft, we had only seen it in winter and being previously in Durness close to Cape Wrath, we had never heard of Gunnera tinctoria or the Giant Rhubarb. A lot of things are being said about it such as that it is poisonous which is not accurate since it is eaten in South America. The thing is that like many wild plants, they can contain some oxalic acid which can affect people with weak kidneys if you eat it in excess. Sure enough, it looks totally alien and scary as it is massive, resilient, spiky and red.
Our website is up
After having used all kind of website technologies in the past 25 years, I got back to simplicity. It turns out the Internet is using a lot of energy to serve our websites and that we should reduce their usage as much as possible.
