Shopping today. That's about it, I think.
Probably walkies 🐶 this afternoon.

Still dry and cold so into Oban early to get some electrical problem with the car towbar electrics sorted.
Fishnish/Lochaline ferry still out of operation due to a vibration problem.
The Kilchoan ferry went down to clear the backlog which took them until about 8 o’clock last night doing a shuttle service.
Not checked this morning but the boat is still out of operation tho’ no idea what they are doing. Probably shuttling boats around to try to keep some sort of service going as this an important emergency link since we are stretched already on the direct link to Oban.

That's Europe on fire

Inevitable I suppose, it's been predicted in some circles for the last 40 years.

Doesn't explain why the Upper Rhine is soggy this morning though.

Still raining here

I Hope this is not controversial.

Can someone explain what all the fuss is about of the photo of Kate and her children on Mother’s Day
To me it’s a nice photo of a mother and her children on Mother’s Day and wishing mothers a happy Mother’s Day.

Probably about creating hype to try and sell newspapers.

Lord knows! It took up half the news last night. If the media don't know something they will make it up for a bit of sensationalism. It's pathetic.

Good morning from Suffolk. It is raining. I think the kettle may be busy today.

 

[biggs682]

Off to watch the rats walk around carrying paper

@Jenkins - well done. You'll be on your way to accreditation next

Quite a lot of people, including myself, use track time to improve fitness levels. It's a tough workout doing 1-2 hours on the boards.

Shopping has been shopped.. Coffee time while I decide what to have for lunch. I'm thinking it'll have to be a ham sarnie as it's eat by date is tomorrow.

If you can't see whether the sun is over the yard arm, you can't drink.

You need Icelandic Spar. Allows you to see where the sun is through clouds.

Somewhat wet ride, enjoyed that and it is easy enough to stay comfortable.

A very squelchy and soggy day here chez Casa Reynard.

Slept OK-ish. Slowly starting to feel better. Had a quiet day yesterday albeit I cleared a load of paperwork and e-mails that needed doing. Another quiet day today, working on the writing and now watching some action from the Cheltenham Festival.

Madam Lexi is continuing to have fun with the play tunnel.

It is time for luncheon.
