It's ♻ Bin day today.

Same here, although the pesky wind has returned so hope it doesn’t blow over. Back to damp and breezy after enjoying several lovely, dry days.

There's no weather at all, here. Grey, no wind, no rain, no sunshine.
Might just turn out nice later, though ☀

Tempted to go for a ride
Blue sky with some fluffy clouds
In fact I will go for a ride ☺️

There's a feel of spring in the air this morning, mostly generated by the goldfinch outside. The sun helps.

I didn't know they could read ! Oh! But it's not unusual for many of their buyers !

Wind up to a full gale now and the rain has started. Main ferry is off but the Lochaline one keeps plugging away. Not much use if in Oban without a car tho' and even then a bit dodgy as it may have stopped by the time you get there.
An ambulance on a call was overturned by wind on Benbecula but no patients involved and the crew got out unhurt. The local doctor and coastguard were able to attend to the incident till the road was cleared.

You will be glad to hear that Grant Shapps has banned Russian Oily Garks from flying in and clogging up your roads .

Morning .
I have put our garden waste bin out .
I had a nice dream this morning . Apparently a cat we had had kittens . 13 tiny little shaky bundles which had just about opened their eyes. Strange how your brain modifies the story to fit as Georgie is a boy !

First cuppa is brewing after a 10 mile solo ride on the tandem .

The governmint is looking for 4 people last seen driving a big vehicle , dark two tone green with a big sticky out thing on the front. People are warned to stay clear of this vehicle as it could be dangerous especially to Russians .
Not all of the above is true !

The main ones we have had here seem to be mainly Dutch or Danish and once a rather mysterious American who was widely rumoured to be hiding out from somebody. He vanished suddenly.

Rain battering my front windows with a hefty gale behind it.
Early ferries are not running but it is forecast to ease up later tho' still wet.
Still trying to clear up the guddle in a back room. How on earth did I manage to accumulate so many bike saddles?
I also found a SA 3 speed which I would give away. It was working when last used but the wheel got trashed.
Having a boat and motorhome as well as the workshop there are lots of kitchen utensils as they were all equipped with cooking gear.

Bright and sunny, but cold with a biting easterly here chez Casa Reynard.

I had a lovely walk with my friend and her two dogs this morning. Then spent the afternoon patching up rat damage AGAIN - the little bar stewards have begun chewing the window ledges on the the extension, so have been stapling wire mesh over the ledges to put them off.

In one place, they've actually chewed through the mortar and brickwork in a bid to get inside after I blocked off all their other attempts. I've stuffed the hole full of rubble and wire and then stapled it closed with more wire mesh. It's too cold for mortar to set quickly, so that can wait till warmer weather. There's another place where they've been trying to get in under the gutter flashing, but I will have to tackle that another time, as it was just too cold thanks to the wind.

And may I suggest that it is not a terribly good idea to trap one's thumb under the handle of an industrial stapler. Owww.

maybe your friend & their 2 dogs can come stay for a cpl days. lil pooches might get free lunch?
