As part of this, they are running a poetry competition, open to all, whether they live in Orkney or not. Further details of this can be found on their website under ‘poetry competition<\/a>‘.<\/p>\n

This competition is open to anyone from anywhere, should be 40 lines or less long and must use Orkney dialect words.<\/p>\n

There are three age groups; Primary School, Secondary School, Adult<\/strong> and four categories; Home, The Land, The Sea, Humour. <\/strong>It is open from 1st January to 31st March 2010.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The following week a new word will be posted and the definition of the previous week’s word given.<\/p>\n
