Na Nisich (the Men of Ness at the top of Lewis), who now face down the world in their gannet-gathering on Sula Sgèir, are thoroughgoing Norsemen by temperament, though they speak Gaelic.
It’s a short crossing from the Port of Ness to the Faroes, where Adam Nicolson called in on his voyage that was first written up as Seamanship and then turned into the TV series Atlantic Britain.
With the same sentiment as the guga harvest protestors, Nicolson (a King James Bible expert but not a believer) gushed to a Faroese, “I’ve seen so many puffins while sailing up the British coast. I love puffins.”
“Ja,” replied the Faroese, “they are delicious, aren’t they?”
