Yes, it's a square plate today.
You have to wonder why plates never come in other shapes like triangular or dodecagonal.🤔

High winds as forecast but no cancellations of local ferries so far. Not yet raining.
A large cruise liner is anchored in the bay but no idea if this is a scheduled visit or just taking shelter. The skipper has lots of anchor chain out as it is swinging over a wide arc.
There is a lot of arguement about these ships but when we had a shop the passengers were more nuisance than profit as they crowded in for a poke around but bought nothing. Some shoplifting tho' as it was difficult to keep an eye on them all due to crowding.
A survey was done in Lerwick where it was found that passengers spent very little if anything when ashore.
Full on spat on FB about the behaviour of many motorhome drivers who park on pavements and generally cause blockages. The complainant has photos to prove their point but only those who do not live here defend this behaviour which is getting more common. The last time I was down the street the bus parking area which is clearly marked was blocked by a couple of them.
Text just in that all morning ferries to/from Oban cancelled with a review at 1500hrs.

I'm eating an ice-cream while watching the HK Sevens rugby on TV.
This is the last one to be held at the current stadium before moving to the new, all purpose stadium being built in Kai Tak, where the old airport used to be.

Good morning from a bright and not yet as breezy as expected Suffolk. First coffee of the day has been done and a very good one it was. I was a bit confused when I put the radio on earlier and it wasn't Radcliffe/Maconie, but Deb Grant who's been doing the breakfast show stand in all week.
I've woken up with a real hankering for some sausage rolls so I'm going to have to go out soon to get some sausages. And rolls.

I would like to thank the BBC and the Royal Mail in helping to explain how you can spot the difference between a real first class stamp and a fake one .
I wish someone could explain the difference between a first class delivery service which arrives the next day to one which arrives a week later?

Second cuppa went down well with a hot cross bun .
Washing is on the line

Wet surfaces but dry and stupid winds yet arrive so the ebike had a varied Saturday morning visit to Waitrose by stopping at a town centre cycle stand first, it's rider in need of some more powerful eye drops for the watering eye.
On the return discovered the way blocked. Diversion posted for pedestrians but no mention for cyclists and it is a signed cycle route. Pedestrian way I realised would be pretty cycling unfriendly but then realised there was a subway accessing another cycle route down a road I have never cycled. So a rare bit of local new road coverage.

More rugby seven news. France and Ireland meet in the semi’s and the Australia v South Africa game just now is messy.

I would suggest melting some butter in preparation for the confrontation. This army actually does march on its stomach. Moltke might suggest remaining mobile, and alert for any opportunity logistics will permit.

Will Oz meet the Kiwis or Fiji in the second semi-final?
