Earl’s talk postponed

A transatlantic address by the ninth Earl of Orkney, Peter St John, has been postponed until April.

The talk was due to be broadcast today as part of an inter-continental collaboration between the Orkney Heritage Society, the Centre for Nordic Studies, and the St. Norbert Arts Centre in Winnipeg, Canada.

The earl was due to be speaking from his home community in Canada about the remarkable contribution of Orkneymen to the development of what is now the world’s second largest country.
