A Winter's Tale

Across to Stromness to visit Phyllis who has just been discharged from the Balfour Hospital. Also went to see David B who is working on his novel. Still with incredibly high energy levels we went in past to see my Mum, let ourselves in and it was all a bit Mary Celeste like. Half finished cup of tea (luke warm - not the character out of Porridge) crossword incomplete but no sign of life. The Kirk had finished so she was away somewhere on the randan.

Returned home with a tail wind of about 55 mph. Ward Hill can be seen looming ghost like across the Clestrain Sound. They haven’t caught the person yet who keeps dusting it with castor sugar
