Overcast but dry with still a northerly wind and feels colder than usual. Autumn is definitely here and that time when it is difficult to know what to wear as it starts out cold but may get too warm later.
I need to give myself a good kick to get out on the trike later I think. My motivation has gone.
The unscheduled call by the Barra ferry was indeed due to a passenger getting on the wrong boat and heading for Barra instead of Mull. How they managed that I cannot imagine but they must have evaded the check in somehow.
Calmac sometimes surprise people nowadays by doing the sensible thing at some inconvenience and expense and diverting a ferry for one daft person.

Applied for a security job yesterday. Been contacted today by phone and now the company sent me an email with their paperwork requirements. I read it and my inner self immediatelly said "nope". :headshake:

1. They don't know what is "settled status" and asks me for a Biometric Residence Permit. I wonder what else they don't know.
2. It's called SIA baDGe, not SIA baTCH.
3. DVLA. The hell is that??? What's wrong with just "driving licence"? And even that question shouldn't be asked because the job doesn't say anything about driving and it's none of your business if I have got it.
