Good morning, Elle!
Great day here, hope it keeps up!
Looks like you will have a busy day with your family arriving!
Hope the computer gets fixed.
I've no plans today.
Just about to go for my paper.
Here's a wee video from the Courier about what the experts think happened to the whale. https://www.thecourier.co.uk/fp/news/local/angus-mearns/624009/video-watch-as-complex-operation-to-probe-death-of-and-bury-tay-sperm-whale-gets-under-way/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter
It looks bigger than I thought it was.
Unfortunately the wind noise spoiled the sound and they have used sub-titles, but interesting never the less..

A Very Good morning to you, Rusty!
Wet here! Very dismal..... warmish though at 8C.
Just back from the park.
I have read the article from The Courier - very interesting and great pics!
But I couldn't get the video to work?
Just a black screen with a circle going round in the middle.... nothing happened, no matter what I clicked!
I have time for a coffee, to sort out the washing, and to "tidy up", before everyone arrives!
Maybe even a quick squint at the crossword!
Have you any interesting sport to watch today?

Hello, Elle!
It's like a Summer's day here!
I get the same black screen thing now on the Loch Garten site.
Was fine up to Tuesday.
What it means is the computer is not set up for the system they are using.
I'll have a look to see if it is on YouTube yet.
They use a system that most of us can use.
No sport for me, except the golf in the evening.
But tomorrow, there is a major bike race in Belgium.
Gent-Wevelgem, one of the Spring Classics.
I am looking forward to it!
Proper racing, cobbled climbs etc!

The Loch of the Lowes stream has good sound today, but there is no movement at all on my screen

Good morning, Jazzgirl!
A good moving picture from the loch on my Chromebook and tablet.
Havd you tried refreshing the screen?

Perfect picture of Lassie and trees are moving in the wind.

Good Morning rusty
Yes, I kept refreshing the screen (I was on iPad )
I am now on laptop and it's fine .

Hello, Jazzgirl!
I am afraid technology is not my thing!
There will be some minor thing on the iPad not quite in tune with the loch broadcast, probably.
Was it working OK earlier in the week?

Yes, rusty, it was working fine early this morning. . I have now disconnected and will leave it to rest for a while. It should return as normal I hope

Hi, Rusty!
You will be busy tomorrow then .........out to the Pine Cone with Misses O and L-B and also a bike race to watch!
"Cobbles" take me back..... the street where I lived as a child, in Bolton, had a cobbled road.
It was a good job that not many folk could afford cars (we did not have one)......as it did very little for the suspension!
Now, talk about a spooky coincidence.....
Have you looked at your crossword yet?
15a is very topical!!
I was gob smacked!
Right, family just arriving .......I shall most probably not get chance to use the computer again, until my family have gone home this evening.
I am hoping that my daughter will be busily employed in putting said computer to rights!!
Talk later.



Lassie busily grooming herself and tidying her nest!
No problem with vision and movement.
