In this week’s The Orcadian

This week’s edition of The Orcadian is now available in shops and online.

On the front page, a fresh call is being made to speed up the provision of loos at one of Orkney’s leading visitor attractions.

It comes as progress has been made in providing a second toilet block at Skara Brae.

While welcoming the latter development, long-time tour guide Jo Jones said that somewhere for visitors to spend a penny at the Ring of Brodgar is desperately needed.

Also in the newspaper this week, we have coverage of the opening of Rapture, plus interviews with the nightclub’s DJs, and a round-up of another spectacular Stromness Shopping Week.

We also look ahead to a busy show season, with an eight-page pull-out feature previewing each of the events.

More inside:

• Fishermen warned after cable damage.
• ‘Fascinating enigma’ unearthed at Rousay dig.
• Town centre driving ban a safe move?
• Packed programme announced for science festival.
• Artist’s family stunned by Ness Battery mural.
• Hockey heroes bring cup home.

For all this and much more, pick up this week’s edition of the newspaper.
