No traffic here... Wondering if the roads blocked.......

Don't think they could fly here today.
Hooning, waiting for the bin truck so I can run out. No point thinking the rubbish will stay put.
Wheelie bins gone overall ready

Surprising what helicopters can do sometimes. There was an airlift from here a couple of weeks ago in weather nobody though would be possible. Only alternative would be a lifeboat which was used in the past in horrendous weather but not comfortable for the patient, in this case a very pregnant woman.

Yeah I suppose. Used to live end of the runway at air sea rescue so I know how s*** it can be when they go for it

Watching a magpie strut around our garden like he owns it

I heard the air ambulance land in the park around 4am.

Not that unusual as being by the sea and more or less in the middle of a triangle of three hospitals it is the ideal landing spot for a few miles around.

The bin men have been.
One of em lost his chicken run ,shed and chickens are scattered around the farm

Sum blowy this week eh!

I suppose whatever Bono was searching for has been blown away now with all this wind we have been having !

Perhaps it was his hammer so that he could put some more tacks in his roof felt ! The wind has blown a section off our garden shed !

Now where's my hammer !

The never ending wind and rain continues

I've discovered that if I don't like the weather here I can just ride around the hill to the next village and it'll be different. Very strange living by an extinct volcano.

Second cuppa went down better than first one
Perhaps the lemon curd on toast helped

That is until it wakes up !

Very similar here however we quite often have rain out the front garden and sunny dry in the back...

The next village is about 3 miles and has completely different weather

I think they say that Vesuvius is overdue !

First couple of ferries cancelled from Oban but from where I am sitting 6 miles east of Oban it looks calm outside.
NW wind forecast so may try the trike sometime today and leave my shopping till tomorrow. Got an appointment tomorrow anyway which is my main reason for being here on mainland.
The ferry decided to have a go at 0930 from Oban but you could hardly make it up-- there is power cut at the Mull end and the back up generator for the linkspan has broken down so no guarantee of landing.
No triking today either as I have now got an audiology appointment in Oban as my hearing aid has ceased to work.

I read an article the other day about that perennial bone of contention: red sauce or brown sauce. In a bacon sandwich interface, I answer mustard. Intriguingly, the author of a recent book, Red Sauce, Brown Sauce, suggests English mustard and marmalade. So I went out and bought some marmalade. I'm going to try this combination for bruncheon.

it sounds like your inner Paddington needs feeding, but surely on sandwiches not bacon
