Disathairne :-/

Is Gaelic for Saturday, only reason I know is because I spotted a banner in the town centre this morning, for the shinty/ hurling international next Saturday.
Struggled for something to blip today, this is the book I am reading at the moment, I love Dava Sobel's books.
Bought it whilst I was on the Isle of Wight, seems an appropriate description for the island :-)
