The North Atlantic Gap or something. Can the Faeroes nae send out a spare whaler or something?
Putin is also alleged to have recently said that he might “take out a Scottish Island” - don’t think he had a date (as in a night out) in mind. Sullom Voe could be a possible strategic target in a UK-context for anyone who thinks that Putin might be deranged. The Vikings have already paid us a visit. The Romans were busy elsewhere. Viking Energy is now with us. Such a fine quiet place.
