Reasonable day to start with. Watched someone clean up after his dog -
by throwing the poo over the seawall. Have compiled a Mod scrapbook,
but need duplicate copies of the relevant papers to be able to use all
the pictures; images are printed on both sides of some pages. Go to
Lewis Crofters to start with, to buy 2 new pairs of socks, an insulated
cup. It's raining when I leave that treasure trove. Into town for a new
pair of shoes from Murdo MacLean's. That shop is full of helpful
ladies. I find one pair of shoes that appears to fit, erm - the right
shoe does. The left one has gone walkabout. The assistant hunts high
and low, engages the help of everybody else, only to find the missing
shoe in its original box! Return to Newton after finishing purchases
and carry on updating the on-line journal. Manage to squeeze in quite a
few piccies about the last few days. Night falls at 5.45 pm - tomorrow
that will be at 4.45. Clocks go back tonight. Mrs B (Barbara for
insiders) provides me with a very nice meal:
- Parma ham with melon and grapes
- Lasagna
- Chocolate and custard
- Glass of wine
As we both got lottery tickets, we watch Eamonn Holmes' program Jet Set
to see the draw. No winnings at all. Yesterday, I made my 200th entry
on Metcheck (www.metcheck.com). The count runs up quickly when the
weather is bad or unusual. Last night, the wind dropped rapidly after 9
o'clock. The Met Office website gives nice graphs.
Just after 11, a shower comes past clattering against the window.
