Thursday 19 November

Overcast and breezy, with the odd spot of rain. It's more than the odd spot they are getting in northern England and the rest of Scotland: a horrendous day down there, with little sign of improvement.

I am still monitoring the bulk carrier "Almi", which has been Not under command for the past two days or so. The ship, 42,000 dwt, is tracking back and forth in the Minch, between Tiumpan Head and Stoer Point. Don't know what is going there, but there is no Coastguard activity in the area, so I assume all is well.

More later.

  1. Funny that about the "Almi." did you contact the coastguard ? I suppose they know what is going on, but it does seem unusual behaviour.
    We have had a dry day but still gale force winds.
