Archeologist, St Kilda

The commute could be scary! Helicopters & boats aren’t all that quiet either.

However…IF I was an archeologist with a good knowledge of Scottish history (& stuff)… I’d love to do that.

Can’t be that hard essel – “here’s some dirt” “here’s some rain” “it looks exactly the same now as it did last tuesday”

1 year fixed term contract finishing after the 2017/18 winter, I imagine the winter is at the end deliberately ! Stunning opportunity for a young grad wanting to do something different.

Isle of May, no pay mind you.

A bit of rope, a fishing line, a couple of sheep, and you wouldn’t need shopping… 🙂

a fishing line,

Couple of rods with me & there wouldn’t be much work getting done!

Oh hang on, what about bait? Lures or shellfish off the rocks?

New thread, ‘what bait for fishing on St Kilda’ ?

Sea birds and their eggs are the traditional food of St Kilda. There are quite a few sheep on the neighbouring rock.

RAF base on the island too, doubt they starve.

does stravaaa work on st kilda, or did it not get installed there before the islanders left?

There won’t be much competition for the KOM/QOM at ‘Gannet ridge descent’
