Day off today and I was disappointed that I wasn't working!! Stuart and I went down to the Ferry more in hope than expectation because of the wind (not ours). There were about 10 people waiting to cross but we knew that the wind was too strong from the waves on the Kyle. Aye I'm begining to get the feel for the weather! Forecast doesn't look too good either. Jo and I drove east along the top and went for a walk at Strathy Point to see the lighthouse there (not as good as the Cape but a better road). Sat and watched the Gannets feeding and the farmer trying to gather up his sheep before returning back to Durness. We stopped off at a tea shop at Tongue and met a couple of passengers from yesterday and had a chat and they said how much they had enjoyed themselves ( a bit of a relief). The tea shop owner picked up on this and when the tourists left instantly we became locals talking about how the season was going, ferry times, council policy and how they must come over to the Cape.
Well, its confession time.........we've got the gas fire on and the heater in the bedroom as well.
Had a text from Virgin that our android facility to act as a Wifi hotspot might be stopped as the tariff may have changed so all future posts will be from the android direct to the blog and therefore no photies. I spoke to Virgin who assured me that my tariff hadn't changed so I could still tether but they didn't sound convincing so we will find out tomorrow!
