Whatchamacallit 164: Shetland Pony Postcard

Shetland Pony Postcard

I sent myself this postcard from Baltasound – writing it while at the Baltasound Hotel Restaurant on May 30, 2013.

This is the best smelling restaurant I’ve been in in years – O.M.G. The first day in the Shetland Islands – Unst – Many Shetland Ponies seen. Lots of sheep/lambs. Amazing scenery – plus driving on the left. Driving Valhalla Beer – very nice. Much more relaxed and pleasing than Edinburgh. A perfect vacation. Adam.

The stamp was hand cancelled with a stamp that includes puffins: “Britain’s Most Northerly Post Office.”

I keep the postcard on the shelf behind my couch – a regular vision that reminds me of the excellent time spent on the Shetland Islands.


During the Covid-19 crisis, I am going to try and make a point of writing a blog post about an object in my home.

We’ll see how long this lasts.
