Wednesday 25 September

Like yesterday, we had a glitch with the broadband. Apparently, there was a fault with the microwave link to the mainland, which carries all our internet traffic. When things were restored to normal, I was able to carry on my researches into North Uist casualties of the Great War. Upon going into town, I noticed that the Muirnneag's port of registration (previously Glasgow) and the Calmac website address had been painted out. She is apparently due to go to Turkey in the next couple of days. Sunset brought us another display of blazing colours.
