Second time lucky

Sometimes I send drawings on a postcard to people who I don't know, using twitter to collect victims. 

In September I sent the card below from Howmore, South Uist to @aikowrites.  But I addressed it wrongly and it never arrived.  Did have funny correspondence with @RoyalMail who said that the card would have been destroyed.  This is what happens to miss-addressed post.  Maybe someone saved it from the shredder and has it on their pinboard.


























Here are the other cards I sent at the same time.

On 2nd Jan I drew this and posted it, again to @aikowrites.  aiko sent me a photograph when it arrived safely:



St Oran's Chapel, Iona, in the Reilig Oran.  Here, as at Howmore, there are graves of Lords of the Isles.  Somerled himself might be nearby.
