Madainn mhath from Ness, Isle of Lewis. I’m @sweenyness and I’m a full time crofter here. I ran this account before about 4/5 years ago but I’m back for another spell this week

I’m going to try and talk about aspects of island life and the different challenges we face, compared to other parts of the UK/Scotland. I’m a week into lambing, so my planned timetable may go out the window.

This thread will be pinned to the top of the profile, so I’ll add and FAQs to this, like where I’m from and what is crofting.
