Friday 03/03/06 - later

Forgot to mention that Stornoway was shaken by a violent thunderstorm last night. Mrs B was out in it, and it scared her badly. Her 2nd son comes home for a week's visit at around 6pm. The plane was pretty much on time, although there has been disruption to flights all day in Scotland due to snow. Webcam viewers from Romania, Russia and the Orkney Isle of Sanday. Occasional snow showers. The Gazette publishes an article on a boating disaster off Brenish, with an erroneous illustration of Molinginish. The beach in question is called Mol Linnis, the end of the Uig road in Mealista.

    Heard that someplace yesterday in Scotland amidst snow blizzard there was thunder and lightning...how strange!!  Did your wife get lightning too? Love the snowy scene on Eigg.

    How do you pronounce "Eigg"?  I would love to visit the Hebrides someday.  One of my favorite funny books is THE HILLS IS LONELY by Lillian Beckwith which was my introduction to the Scottish Hebrides.
