Gone fishin' !

A violently stormy night, with heavy thunder and amazing lightning right overhead, followed by heavy rain. I didn't realise just how much rain until we went out this morning and saw the washout on the drive.

Today was a good day, however, and after lunch I walked down to the town to hand a few books and DVDs in to the charity shop. I don't usually give books away once I've bought them, but there are exceptions! Because I like actor Rupert Everett I bought a copy of his autobiography while in Durham - having read the book I most decidedly don't like him any more! Nuff said.

I watched a party of trippers waiting to board the good ship Creagallan, owned by Argyll Sea Tours; off for a spot of fishing, no doubt. I took a lot of pictures as I liked the way they were spread out down the slipway, rather like the Beatles on a sloping Abbey Road, but then the two ferries, 'Isle of Mull' outbound and 'Coruisk' inbound, arrived on the scene and mucked things up! So this became my Blip.
