Not a very productive morning.
Went to top up with fuel for the car before my mainland trip and wanted to get the car booked in for their computer to have a check on a problem. Got diesel ok but they were so rushed I did not have the heart to cause them further delays by enquiring about bookings.
Then to farm shop to get bacon as they had restocked the fridge on Sunday. No bacon left.
Found I had a bit of tooth missing so up to the dentist. Door locked as no reception staff.
Somebody coming from Wales to the Mull Sportif at the beginning of June finds all campsites are fully booked. appealing for help with any space.
Back home to find a large campervan parked in our resident spaces and over the BT manhole which Openreach often have to attend to.

Kin effing balling clutch is a pain in the jacksy ....

First gearbox out ,props off....

Release bearing went on my old Commer about 1000. We were off on holiday that afternoon so quick trip to main dealers in Paisley in the car for the bits and back on the road with the camper by mid afternoon. None of your complicated modern junk in those days.

Warm, blustery and occasionally showery here chez Casa Reynard.

It must've chucked it down overnight though, as everything is sopping wet, and with more showers forecast for the afternoon. I'll be planting some strawberry plants out this arvo - a bit late, but it's easier to make holes with a trowel in wet soil.

Only got about 4 hours sleep again. This is beginning to get very wearysome. I feel bloody godawful.

Anyways, it's time for luncheon.

My step-granddaughter had her spoken French GCSE this morning. So, when I saw her, I asked her: ''Il s'est bien passé?'' This produced a look of pure terror on her face as she tried to understand what I'd just asked her. I hope she did better than that during the exam.

Lovely luncheon of a cured salmon & cream cheese sandwich, a plum, an orange and two

Waiting for that lot to tamp down before I head out to do some gardening.

I stopped feeding the birds about three years ago, because no matter what I tried, the squirrels and rats were just wrecking the feeders. Although I did get a lot of laughs by greasing the poles...
