A sunny end to a wild day on Colonsay. We've done the Good Samaritan bit - only rather than a donkey the wifie concerned is waiting for a helicopter. Actually we had four helicopters here earlier, and the bar filled up with jolly RAF types in jumpsuits, which suited some (the lean, lithe ones) better than others. Despite the efforts of the local doctor, they were unable to give the wumman a lift. Insurance, they said. Such excitement. And I've just found out that the doc has to go to Oban with the helicopter - glad if saw Mr B's sore ear before he left!

Out of the West

Enjoy the wild west. Sheena and Finn came out of the west (from Jura), taking 4 ferries to reach Bute. So supergran is having a great time. I have posted a new challenge on Frying an Egg but unless it pours with rain you will have bteer things to do!
