Scotland - 6th March 2010. Uri, Shipi & Island Man going to camp on Lamb Island

I am going to live on my island....

OK, it's only for one day and one night - but I thought it would be rediculous to buy an island, and then never set foot on it! So, this Saturday the 6th of March, I will be going to Lamb island, with Shipi, and "Island Man" Andy Strangeway, a UK Adventurer who's ambition it is to spend a night on every island in the UK.

Shipi & I are leaving London at the crack of dawn, and heading towards North Berwick, where we will arrive some hours later in the early afternoon. We're going to spend some time visiting the area, including a visit to the Scottish Seabird Centre.  So if you are in the area, come and say hi!

We're then going to jump on a boat, and go on a tour of the islands near to Lamb, including Bass Rock & Craigleith - before landing on Lamb, and treasure hunting!

The first thing I want to do, after having a good walk around the island, is to use my dowsing abilities to see if there is any truth to the ancient legend which points to exiled Egyptian princess Scota having hidden Egyptian treasure on the island. The archealogical myth & legend surround Lamb, are huge in comparison to the size of the tiny island, and I can't wait to find out if there is any truth to it.  I have helped countries to find their gold & oil deposits searching thousands of square miles of possible locations - so if there is treasure on my little Island - I will find it!

If I do find it - no, it will NOT be going on Ebay! It will be split jointly between the Museum Of Scotland and the Egyptian Museum in Cairo.

Landing on the island is NOT going to be fun, I'm led to beleive - and nor is sleeping on it.

Some years ago, some brave souls decided to spend a night on the island,and reported that it very dangerous & difficult to land on - and even more difficult to sleep on, with their being very little flat land to pitch tents & to sleep on. They recommend that anyone else wanting to sleep on the island, take some very comfy pillows with them - so I'm very thankful for their previous trip to the island & their useful tip!
