When Kathleen Leith, nee Leask, was growing up in the 1930s and 40s, life was more brightly coloured. Stromness was a self-contained world, full of characters, interest and adventure.
Graham Place was right at the town's heart and Kathleen's stories of her childhood there brought it vividly to life for her family.
Here are most of the ones that are still remembered.
