Mr Talk Talk nonsense did not ring me yesterday about the new router they needed to deliver, there's a surprise, not!
I downloaded a digital Advent Calendar from Jacquie Lawson this morning, when I renewed my subscription. The 360.000 kb took approximately five seconds to download. I am guessing there is nothing wrong with that download speed.

Ferry problems again. MV Loch Frisa has a rope round the stern propulsion unit. I always called it a propellor.
Divers are working on it but several sailings are cancelled.
According to younger son who was a diver but now into elfin safety it will take longer to set up the safety systems than the actual rope removal.
I remember being asked to remove ropes from fishing boat props but I always refused unless they stopped the engine. With the engine running it would be all too easy for somebody to knock the gear lever and I would be mince.
Found a tub of Pathclear on my doorstep but no idea who donated this.
I did sweep and put salt on my neighbours path yesterday as they would be returning after dark from a weekend away and the path would be in darkness so easy to go A over T.
Somebody on the other side could have seen me doing this and put it there. Time will tell.

Does anybody else see the faces in the rock?
This is on the Sput Dubh in Tobermory bay. The boats were painted I think by navy personnel as this was a major base and underwater are a pile of filing cabinets dumped before they left.
Good spot for mackerel fishing as well.

Finally managed to get a plasterer organised for some work that needs doing. After two abortive attempts with 'recommended guys' , I texted this one at about 10am. He called back 2 mins later, called round at 3pm, and he is coming Thursday first thing. 
Hope he turns up...............

My two plasterers have probably retired if not deceased by now!

Another brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrightish and chhhhhhhhhhhilly day here chez Casa Reynard.
Didn't have a particularly restful night. Ah well, hey ho. Spent the morning chauffeuring the parental for some errands, and while I was at it, flung the last of the cards and small parcels at the post office in the next village along to save me an extra trip. At least they're all gone and in the system. Damn cold here, struggled to get the car off the drive after yesterday's melt re-froze, but the roads were OK once I got out onto the Common. Other drivers were taking it pretty steady mind you, they don't grit out here in the boonies.
Have noticed that Ratty, having been thwarted with my previous repair, has chewed himself / herself a new hole in the window sill. Little sod! Anyways, it's too cold in the hallway to effect a proper repair, so I've stacked (and wedged tight) a load of bricks over the hole as a temporary measure.
Oh, and Tah Dah! My missing Bay of E lot has turned up. Contacting the seller last night was the magic trick, of course...
Had a good luncheon of a ham & cheese sandwich, a pear, a banana and two
Soon it'll be time for another and a biskit to go with it.

I've got cycling base layers under my clothes. Surprisingly effective at keeping me toasty warm.
