Old friends visiting

The last fortnight has been a quiet time for me, my two weeks on the
Isle of Mull is nearly over, slightly extended this time due to
manning problems till Thursday this week. Today is the end of the
Bank Holiday weekend and the old paddler is in Oban for four days,
heading back to Greenock tomorrow. Co-incidental with the holiday we
have had four days of rain, and on Saturday a near gale.
Despite this we have been very busy with traffic going out to Mull,
many of them nice English folk visiting the dear green brown place, I
do feel for them given that 300 miles South of here it is scorchioo.
