Thursday 28/04/05
Today's weather is very wet and windy, so I am not inclined to go out on a walk. Do go out at lunchtime for papers and food, but it's so wet that any thought of walks goes out of the window. As the day progresses, the wind picks up to force 8 or 9. The evening ferry into Stornoway is cancelled, as the gail slings rain onto the island. The wind suddenly drops away at 10pm to a force 6.

The wind is still strong, but not as bad as late yesterday. In the morning it is dry. After lunch I take the camera through the town, and into the Castle Grounds. The ferry is late coming in and even later sailing - 2.45 instead of the 1.45 timetabled. The weather deteriorates imperceptibly. At first it's sunny, then there is the odd spot of rain, then a brief shower or two - or three. Not wet enough to necessitate waterproofs. By evening though, we're having downpours. Return from walk at 4.30. Mrs B serves me pasta for dinner.
