It’s hard to grow up in Orkney and not end up being creative in some form. ‘The Watery Pleep’ is my nod to Orkney and rural Scotland

A ‘Watery Pleep’ is the Orcadian word for the common redshank because it is found by the shore but also because of it’s call. In Orkney, if you ‘pleep’ it means you are moaning about something and are being particularly whiney about it.
