An island to avoid
Because it isn't there:
Mystery surrounds a spoof tourist brochure for a non-existent island which has appeared at a number of sites around Orkney.

Oh, we have spent the Easter holidays on Mama Westray.
We had an invitation of my daughter's old girlfriend Cate, who drove us around the island in her bright red convertible.
We liked the island very much, especially the whiskey, which is not distilled from barley there, but from seaweed.
Otherwise, we were served a lot of pork which appears to be abundand on the island. It tasted like rotten squid, but it was at least way better than the fish & chips they serve in London.
