The Bloody Orkney
A humorous poem by captain Hamish Blair.

Dat Orkney ook zijn mooie kanten heeft dat zien we in deze clip:
Orkney - islands
People don't always realise that Orkney is made up of a number of islands and outwith the mainland isle, the many other populated isles enjoy an even gentler pace of life and have much to offer whether you just go for a visit or you decide to stay. Find out more here.

Omdat de tekst van het gedicht zo geniaal is:
Bloody Orkney
Bloody Orkney
This bloody town's a bloody cuss
No bloody trains, no bloody bus
And no one thinks of bloody us
In bloody Orkney.
The bloody folk are bloody mad
The bloody roads are bloody bad
Good night the bright is bloody sad
In bloody Orkney.
Oh bloody crows, Oh bloody rain
No bloody kerbs, no bloody drains
The council's got no bloody brains
In bloody Orkney.
The bloody things are bloody dear
A bloody bob for a bloody beer
And is it good? No bloody fear
In bloody Orkney.
The bloody dances make you smile
The bloody bands are bloody vile
It only cramps your bloody style
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.
No bloody fun, no bloody games
No bloody times. The bloody dames
Won't even give their bloody names
In bloody Orkney.
There's nothing greets your bloody eye
But bloody sea and bloody sky
Roll on the mob! we bloody cry
In bloody Orkney.
