	Berneray Feature Page on Undiscovered Scotland
		Berneray and nearby uninhabited Pabbay lie in the Sound of Harris between North Uist and Harris.
		It shouldn't be confused with the other Berneray that is the most southerly island in the chain of the Western Isles, complete with another Pabbay lying (fairly) close to it.
		All Berneray's settlement is on the east side of the island because the west side is given over entirely to machair.

	Outer Hebrides - Berneray and Eriskay
		Berneray is only a half mile from North Uist but it took a long, hard campaign by the residents to convince the Scottish Office that a 6.6 million pound bridge should be constructed.
		But strenuous efforts have been made to keep one traveller out - Berneray is free of rabbits and the road had to be made rabbit proof to stop the thousands of rabbits on Uist crossing over.
		The second Berneray is the most southerly of the Hebrides and has been uninhabited since the lighthouse became automated.

		After announcing the closure of this blog a few days ago, I was very surprised to get a mini-deluge of emails from total strangers saying that they read it, found it fun / interesting / off-beat, and could I keep it going.

		With just 141 people, three mile long and one and a half mile wide Berneray lies in the Sound of Harris, just off of North Uist.

	"O Lord, Open a door for the Word!" (Colossians 4:2-4)
		On the Monday after Easter in 1952, Duncan was seated on the platform after speaking to the Faith Mission Convention in Bangor, Northern Ireland, when he sensed the inner voice say to him, "Berneray!" (That is a small island in the Hebrides.) Duncan bowed his head and prayed silently.
		He was so sure that he would be there in three days that he made all the arrangements to use the local church and had announced the services.
		Wesley Duewel goes on to say that great revival came to the island of Berneray and a great door for the Word was opened that no man could shut because God opened it.

		Chris S, Dave S and Alan S, made the great escape trip to the Western Isles for the New Year sojourn on the small isle of Berneray.
		This low lying island's main claim to fame is that it is the birthplace of the giant MacAskill, who was born in 1825, grew to a height of 7'9' and died of a fever at the age of 38.
		Upon reflection, I attended hostel dances in cycling shoes in my youth, so that it is only expected that I should wear my polished walking boots to the dance, now that I have stopped bike riding.
