Thursday 26th May 2022

It was a freezing cold gusty day with every combination of weather possible. Of course it would be when the Electricity company planned to replace the pole and transformer that is situated on the croft. Those guys had an arduous shift, I xan tell you, and I was pretty distracted watching them most of the day. I documented the process in my instagram stories if you want to see - there are a lot of them.

Aside from that, I did some housework and laundry, and made a pasta bake for dinner.

Both yesterday and today I had back to back online meetings or seminars to attend. Two sessions were interview and recruitment training for members of the School Parent Council. We have a Head Teacher vacancy that has just been advertised. One was a Community meeting with potential offshore wind power developers, and the other was part of a Scottish Government consultation on a net zero carbon strategy for Island Communities. All very interesting stuff.

It's not all cleaning, shopping and pizza…
