Morning from Skye.

Well it's wet and truly wild as we wait for the ferry

We stayed in the Cowshed Bunkhouse in a fantastic pod with amazing views. The roundhouse itself is pretty fantastic too.

I see there's plenty of wood if you decide to do a bit of whittling.

I'm in the middle of trying to replace a broken reclining seat handle thingy. It's plastic and has broken. I was going to swap it for the other side as it is a 2 seater, but it's heavy, so I'm having a rest.

This reclining 2 seater handle swap is turning into a bit of a Saga.

I've swapped the handles over but it is still not operating, it could be the cable or the mechanism.
It isn't helped by the fact that the chair is heavy and I need to tip it up. The weight of the chair becomes mysteriously heavy when the velcro at the back attaches itself to the carpet and I end cup trying to lift the chair and the floor.

A few hills. Looks like good cycling country.

Looks quite quiet, sea wise. Leaning out over the side a bit though!

Are you in a play pen?

I've fixed the the reclining seat. It took a while to figure out the mechanism, it had a lot of rods, pivots and two large springs. I didn't want my fingers in the way if it suddenly went off. I sprayed all of the pivots with WD40 and it is working fine now.

I just bought a lamb breast from the yellow sticker shelf in the Penrith Morrisons for £1.62.

Ooooo, well done!

I'm going to have a mosey around the local Co-op at final reductions time later.

Got a YS pork shoulder joint sitting in the crock pot alongside cider, sage and onions. It's the last one of a job lot I bought a couple of years ago at 40p a pop...
