Wednesday 19/07/06

Warmest day of the year elsewhere in the UK, but not here. Some high level cloud passes over occasionally, but it's very calm. In the morning, the lighthouse and the yard at Arnish reflect in the waters of the outer harbour. Muirneag sailed into port at 8 am, and she appeared to float in the air rather than in the water. Sorry, no pics of that; only of conditions later in the day and in the evening around sunset time. Went to Somerfields for some bits, but don't do much else. In the sun, it feels a lot warmer than 22C at 1pm. It's also very warm to engage in exercise. We have a tuna roll outside in the backyard; mrs B's son stays outside to do some painting. Supper consists of the lamb casserole (see my journal Recipe Book). At 10, go out for a stroll to Goat Island. It is perfectly windless - wind force 0. Beautifully coloured sunset.
