Paddy the barge driver wisely checked the forecast and decided not to make any tar or gravel deliveries until today. He almost came yesterday but didn't, actually I'm not sure about today. The boys were given a couple of days off so the Mallaig/Dalmally lads went home. Some of the Islay boys decided the trip back was worth doing but the Scousers stayed here. Two of them went out mackerel fishing and creel lifting and got two lobsters, although one of them found the boat's rocking upset his stomach, and probably didn't care about the lobster.
Our bit of road is beautifully smooth now. I got into fourth gear and it felt a bit scary. There isn't any tar yet, just compacted gravel. The tar stops the far side of Acha but smooth road goes almost as far as the road lochs, just two miles of bumps now! Our elected (as opposed to list) MSP came in on Saturday to look at the road, a bit late. I heard his bike got a puncture. There's a surprise! I was going to ask him why he didn't reply to his emails but I couldn'r raise the energy. The only people who think MSPs do anything are MSPs.
The Scousers are booked in for another two weeks, I don't know if that is the minimum time to finish the job, or if includes another weather break.
