Very dreich morning, with increasingly heavy rainfall. Father and son went out fishing on a loch along the Barvas road. Like the previous few days, the results were pretty poor. When they told the man from whom they rented the fishing, he was less than complimentary to them. Which led to our guests hopping on the ferry a day early. Very nice. Plenty of hurricanes about today in the Pacific and the Atlantic. Off to the shop for the papers, which don't have much news. Just that a decision on the Arnish Fabrication Yard is due in the next few days. A daft row in the local council over a proposed ferry link between Lochboisdale (South Uist) and Mallaig on the mainland, to replace the existing link to Oban. It would cut more than 2 hours off traveltime, but two councillors decide to fight like cats in a sack. Beautiful sunset with a rainbow just before 8pm. It's not cold, about 16C.

Thanks for those pix, haven't seen a rainbow in ages, certainly none that beautiful. So is the ferry idea dead in the water? CATHY
