Nice sunny day with little wind.
Library in the morning when I forgot my specs so took books not quite at random but in hope they turn out to be to my taste.
After lunch out on trike on a usual route. Strangely almost traffic free with only a couple of small convoys. Sheep and cattle on the road but that should not have such an effect.
A car in the ditch on the A848 and blocking all but small cars should have increased traffic on the Dervaig road.
Coming home almost got wiped out by an idiot going too fast round a blind corner. Don’t know if he heard the words directed towards him but he did not wait to find out. A couple of peds walking on the carraigeway were clearly not pleased to have to move to one side to let me past. The camp site had a couple of tents so pretty quiet.
Down at the main car park chaos as bad as usual so just came back home.
The 1705 ferry is still on the pier at1825 as there is a problem with the lifeboat engine.
This means to next ferry is delayed as the berth is blocked which leads to the next one being delayed and therefore the next again delayed. Any sensible person should be able to work out most of that for themselves but OTOH I wonder how many touroid are sensible. It takes 5 text messages so far to convey the basic info.
