Irritating ferry trip today.
The lift would not work so got some crew members involved. They were very helpful but could not get it fixed so had to sprachle up the stairs under escort.
Once up no seats easily available and my standby spot beside the lift was occupied by a woman with a dog who had no intention of moving so had to stand for an hour. There were seats outside but a bit cold and in any case they were wet so not possible to sit out.
However by the time we reached Oban they had managed to get the lift problem fixed so did not have to go down the stairs which is more dangerous than going up.
The crew are always very helpful so must go on fb which is not something I normally do and give them a mention.
A car the same make and model as mine managed to clip the rear corner of a gigantic motorhome while parking but fortunately their mirror folded back so no real damage. I was right behind them but could not understand the problem as there was enough space for my car.

I dislike going down stairs, indeed, sometimes I avoid going up if I'll have to come down.

I am guessing that @Reynard does not like pink. She might like this coat in another colour. ^_^

Mild, grey and drizzly here chez Casa Reynard.

I slept really well again - probably making up for the lack of sleep earlier in the year. I'm having a kitchen day again today, turning the mangoes I picked up on sticker into chutney. They're nicely ripe now, they needed that week and a half-ish in the utility room. Most of the chutney makings are chopped up, just need to add the apple and the root ginger prior to cooking.

I can work on the writing while the chutney cooks.

The cats are fast asleep. Madam Poppy has claimed her usual armchair, while Madam Lexi has curled up in a tray full of walnuts. How on earth that's actually comfortable, I have NO idea... :wacko:

I am much happier with the new cab side panels on the Higman. They still need a lot of work - still only a single paper skin, so pretty fragile, but they look and fit so very much better than the originals. Trying to make the whole thing in one piece was a mistake, as there are a lot of subtle shape changes. Much easier to deal with when working with a sheet of metal on a full-sized car...

Anyways, it is almost time for luncheon.

I don't mind pink - given my propensity for pink socks, undercrackers and bras, but not for outer wear. :blush: It's just not practical out here, not with the girls' propensity for kipping on my clothes. But I really do like that - would look lovely as white or light grey embroidery on a black or navy coat. :okay:
