Tórshavn

Photo must represent our old ancestor when it was out to collect peat, which was used here before, now there are almost again more who do it, have seen it in Shetland too
Peatcollecting was hard work. Wonderful to highlight the history of your country.

@mubbur as a Physics teacher I taught about the energy from peat . Intresting to see other countries using this as I thought it was an Irish tradition!

@ladypolly Yes, I was there many times when I was visiting my grandmother, up north for peat, I got it from the fells, but now it's just some people who only do it as a hobby for their summer houses, Shetland has used it a lot 😊
