Yes it is Keith, that's Tony, I'm married to Tony's sister, Jim's daughter Morag.

A great year for Stromness FC but what happened after that? 32 years without an other league tittle , seems too long for a place the size of Stromness. I remember how passionate the ever green Billy Brown (as the Orcadian put it at the time) was about this team.
