Manage to oversleep by half an hour. Mrs B comes in to wake me up at 9 o'clock, she had expected me at the breakfast table by 8.30. Situation in London continuing volatile. One man was shot dead in hot pursuit on the Tube! Anyway, up here in little Stornoway, the ferry was half an hour late coming in last night. Usually, it's about 5 to 10 minutes early. In the morning, I have a chat with the couple from Banchory, who have been touring the island over the last two days.
