Saturday 29/01/05

The usual weekend trip to sunny Stornoway started at 11.09, on the small bus. Had to wait for a bit at Balallan but nothing serious. It was busy in town. Internet off in the library, had lunch the library coffeeshop. Wandered around An Lanntair, the municipal arts center, more specifically the giftshop. This is the only bit remaining open of the center, because the rest has been closed until the new building opens. This is currently under construction on the corner of Kenneth Street and South Beach. Found an artistic diary for 2005. Had a bit of a natter with the woman in the giftshop. When I first went in at 1.15, nobody was there. Twenty minutes later someone was there, but talking with a screaming brat round the corner is not very easy. Somerfield is not my favourite store, cannot find anything there, so take it off my list. Returned to Kershader at 3. Weather today quite acceptable; cloudy but with brighter spells in between. It’s very misty and drizzly around sunset time.
