Pope Francis has issued a blessing for the Italian Chapel. (You can review my own post about the Italian Chapel here, and you can read the text of the blessing here.
The BBC runs a weekly "Scotland in Pictures" page, and one of their recent editions included a picture of an Orkney blackening. You can see my own coverage of Orkney blackenings here.
And finally, Orkney.com has released a new video showcasing Orkney's many attractions. It' features many of the places I've written about here on the blog, so it's worth a look!
As always, more to come.
