Just been looking at the weather stations that contribute to the Weathercloud network on the west side of Scotland to see what the wind's been doing. The highest value I've seen so far is on the Island of Eigg which achieved wind speeds of 40 m/s last night, or around 90 mph. Mid you, that's out in the middle of the sea. A number of stations don't seem to have updated for a few hours, so perhaps there are power cuts in the area. Eigg, by contrast, doesn't have that trouble, perhaps because it's a little island and they've got their own generrator.

Morning All.
A "nothing" day really. No wind/rain/snow/hail/sunshine.
Unusually for me I had no Alcohol MTWT and slept well each of those nights but had some last night. I slept poorly and feel rotten this morning. The clues are there then.
Have a great Saturday.

Scientists warn AI has crossed ‘red line’ and can now replicate itself
Advancements in artificial intelligence are growing rapidly, so it's no surprise it's becoming increasingly difficult to spot – whether that be through scams, AI-generated content or calls. And it's only getting smarter, with scientists recently warning AI has crossed a "red line" with its...

Got the passport photos done, yet another expense, not a big one admittedly.
Yessdi got an email from a bloke who ordered copies of both my books two years ago. (Sales are massively rare and he did it cos he is the mem sec for the Marlin Owners' Club and I'd been emailing him over other stuff. Discovered he'd been a teacher and had done similar work to mine in helping students get into top unis. In a school I knew in Bath. so he wanted to read them. )
So no fool and not easily fooled as in the same game.
Anyway his email was massively complimentary, in a calm and well-judged way. He really got what I was on about. It ended with the fact he had lent them to an ex colleague who had yet to give him them back. The last phrase being in block capitals.
So I think I may rewrite a second edition of both and, this time, time it right so I can get the Times Ed to review them.(They cannot review an "old" book, which is one that has been out over 3 months!) (It'd only take me about 5 minutes!)
If my blasted brother can write 6 books and get them published, (and he has SEN! although I love him to bits and our mum did think he could write. )
then "Fight!".
(I don't think his sales are much better than mine! He has yet to tell me!! I have yet to read one)

I've just watched the vid up to the point where I can see that his loo is in fact a Portaloo.Bushes are his toilet dock leaf for a wipe
No sound on as W is busy watching the Last Leg on catch up.
CBA to get the headphones out.
Can't believe it hasn't been taken away by some council, but from what I have see so far it looks quite good!
