View across the Outer Harbour of Stornoway

Yesterday, our ferry suffered a major breakdown, as I posted on here. Well, the backwash duly arrived. I spoke to some people who had been subjected to a 6-hour delay, with diverted journey through Skye, arriving into SY at 2 am. They were still bleary-eyed twelve hours later, as someone had to put them up in their private home.

I went on an amble around the shopping precincts of Stornoway, including Point Street, North Beach and Cromwell Street. From North Beach, it could be seen that the works on Lews Castle are progressing well.

  1. ...And now it's the turn of MV Hebrides to fail, leaving North Uist and Benbecula in disarray. What is it about all the ferries failing straight out of refit this year?
