Right, I'd better get to bed. Spent the evening identifying, labelling and mounting photos for my archive and rather lost track of time. And the more I manage to find out, the more I realise I don't know. Which then gives me more stuff to try and track down...

Nunnight one and all xxx

Good morning. I was up a bit late tidying up for todays handover. It has to be said the place looks quite nice tidy.

Are we OK?

Last tidying up: I've passed "Organise everything and pack it into categories", and "If there's a gap, push something in it", Now I'm at the "Chuck it in the nearest box and forget about it." stage.

Nice and sunny here . I have drunk 1 and will go and make another when other half has finished hers.
We are resting today ! Two days of excitement is enough .

Managed to get some miles in this morning. First time in a week as it has been very very wet.

Will get more in tomorrow as there's no way I'll be able to bike it for the rest of the week from Tuesday, there's a typhoon in the South China Sea getting its act together and heading our way for Wed.

We have been fascinated by 2 houses near us . They are both joined . Semi attached ! One is privately owned the other housing association. They are both empty. The occupier of the housing association house moved out a little while after Christmas . It remained empty for a while and then the association sent round 5 vans of workmen ! Since then there has been a constant stream of 1 or 2 vans more or less every day ! . How bad could it have been or are they using it for training ?
The house next to it has also been done up and still remains empty !

My mother when she was alive used to tell stories about her childhood, their toilet facilities were a bit basic, a small shed at the top of the garden, a plank with a hole in it and a bucket, she used to say that when the bucket was full the contents would go on the veg patch.

My wife when still a student went with some of her pals on a cycle tour to Ireland. At one hostel the "ladies" was a hut which hung over the river and the "gents" was the river but no hut.

Another wettish day in prospect. For every decent day we have there appears to be at least 4 rotten ones.
FB wars broken out again over the ferry situation as the ones who have set up business to attract even more tourists are furious that people are being delayed or prevented from travelling to or from the island. Trouble is nobody can find any real cases of this happening so it is just manufactured outrage for political purposes.
Somebody is doing a free special buffet dinner for all local Calmac staff as nobody blames them tho' they are on the front line facing the public.
Looking for a battery charger for a camera I came on a Panasonic charger and two batteries. No idea what they are for as the Panasonic camera I have has a different size of battery and I have currently nothing else of that make.

Back now with my first cuppa
Garden birds have been fed
Saw sights on my ride

Back now with my first cuppa
Garden birds have been fed
Saw sights on my ride

All I saw was a Weasel and some nice yachts bobbing about on Loch Earn.
