    Nope, Incorrect. Sailing and Ferry two different things. A Sail boat has "sails" on it. A ferry does not.

      Nope :)

      Extract from the dictionary definition:-

      sailing
      /ˈseɪlɪŋ/
      1. the action of sailing in a ship or boat.
        "a sailing club"
        • a voyage made by a ferry or cruise ship, especially according to a planned schedule.
      I spent some years in the merchant navy sailing the oceans wide :blue thumb:

      It's the difference between a noun and a verb

      I think it sufficient to say The Orkneys are islands and you have to cross water to get there.

          why you even addressed it as to "how" I got there is is beyond me. I got there. The vein of this thread is "radio stations" . Seems radio stations do not need a ferry or sail boat or swimming to get across a body of water.

            Fortunately not otherwise TMS would be really stuck with overseas series.
            Don't even need a computer, just a radio. Digital will be necessary for TMS next year when they switch off Radio 4 Long Wave and retreat to Radio 5 Live Extra.
