There isn’t anything I can say about COVID-19 which hasn’t been said in a much more informed and eloquent way elsewhere.

I’m pleased to say that my new business correspondence address will be c/o the Auction Mart, Humberston, Bailechaul Road, Dingwall, Ross-shire IV15 9TP.

Croft tenants have enjoyed, since 1976, rights to purchase (1) their croft house and (2) their croft land.

I will be tweeting this week (31 June-7 July) from the @HI_Voices account. I have followed the account for a while and thought it might be fun, so here goes.

The common grazings guidance recently issued by the Crofting Commission is, at first glance, rather difficult to digest. You may feel that sinking of the heart commonly experienced when reading of bureaucratic procedures and practices.

Here are ten things for 2019 – stuff you might want to look out for over the coming year.

More useful, I hope, than being subjected to hopes of yoga, fewer biscuits, and better time efficiency.

I am repeating last year’s offer, and will be happy to deal with forms relating to the Crofting Census 2019, for existing clients for free, and for new clients at a reduced rate of £20 plus VAT.

It was a more jovial occasion than it might have been, considering the subject matter.

Apart from enjoying this beautiful time of year, I am also looking forward to hearing the next update from the Crofting Bill Group.
