Heavy rain and strong winds lash the night, but by morning, only sunny intervals remain. Heavy showers roll in by afternoon, leaving some nice cloudscapes. No tropical hurricanes left, now that Clovis and Isobel have dissipated. Don't show my face outside, the weather being not all that inviting. Supper today is fried mince, boiled carrots and mashed potatoes. Watch a number of pretty gruesome forensic science programs on Sky. We are being served by a new tanker, the Border Tartan. The usual tanker, Border Heather, is presumably undergoing repairs after it lost power off Wick over Christmas. I get the name from my AIS website. The freighter Yeoman Bridge is seen scuttling up and down regularly with cargoes of sand and rock from the Glen Sanda quarry near Oban. The crew all fell ill in September 2005 off Stornoway. Six required hospital treatment, 33 were treated on board. The waning moon is out late at night.
