BASKING. (05/06/14)

I’ve arrived in Ullapool and am sitting here basking in rain.

I’m here for a couple of days and will try for some photographs tomorrow.

I see the Isle of Lewis is still sailing backwards and forwards to Stornoway. I thought they were getting a new ferry this June. Yet another job chasing delivery of the new ferry. I’ve one or two jobs here. I could do with a couple of meters of suction hose but haven’t found a chandlers yet. I assume there must be one as there are quite a few fishing vessels and private yachts both based here and calling on passage. I do like the butcher so will have to pop an order in tomorrow for some vacuum packed and frozen meat. I may even do a tourist trip out to the Summer Isles.

I’m then heading north up the coast to Clachtoll. I’ve never been and if it’s nice I shall stop a week or so. I’m meeting a folk band there but I’m not sure when. It’s sometime in June. It is then the twisty narrow roads to Durness for the Mackay Gathering. I think that is around the middle of July. I have both a paper diary and I use the Google one a bit; unfortunately I forget to write important things in either when folk tell me. By the time I remember the diary I’ve forgotten what they told me.

Red asked for the answer to yesterdays puzzle. I remembered he asked. It is just a repeating pattern. I only wanted this filter when I found out that CS6 no longer offered support for the Mathmap Droste filter. This is a stand alone programme and is available here:   SOURCE FORGE. It is free so it can’t get cheaper, it’s easy to use but does lack control. It’s fine and it’s rude to look a gift horse in the mouth.

   Heading North.

That’s all for today, have fun.
