Monday 23/04/07

The new week started with 4 call-outs for the Coastguard yesterday. A camper had falled down a cliff on the mainland at 2 in the morning, and the helicopter had to fly across to Achiltibuie north of Ullapool to pluck him off and take him to the hospital in Stornoway. Two ships appeared to emit distress signals, but their emergency equipment was throwing a wobbly. They were not in need. That walker in the Skye Cuillins was in need, and had to be rescued from his position high up. Police in Stornoway were kept busy with car-crime: one vandalised car and one botched car-theft. Two cars collided on Oliver's Brae, along the road to Sandwick, with occupants taken to hospital. Can't believe the celebrity who wants to save the environment by cutting back on the use of loopaper. Spend quite some time uploading ships' photo's to the Shipspotting.com website. The weather today is wet and horrible. Go out for papers, but that's all as far as I was concerned. Had a ready meal for supper, and watched some television. Am getting a wee bit fed up with all the election hype, but there is another 10 days left of it.

    I wonder what the camper was doing to fall off a cliff at 2 in the morning.  He(she) should have been sound asleep.  We had a lot of rain Saturday but today is looking brighter. I actually like the rainy, gloomy days once in awhile, so I can just be in the house doing whatever.  If you can believe it..we are already hearing & seeing the election nightmare.  And our next presidential election is not until November of 2008.  They are already parading across the TV and telling us all, how much better they are than the other people.  I am usually so fed up by election time, I don't want to vote for anyone, because I'm mad at all of them.
