Wednesday
Dull drizzle. Felt very much better, and made a good
breakfast. Arranged to stay another night.
Down by the Ness
and the old bagpiper, and at times an old tiny dirty bearded man playing a
jigging tune on an accordion.
Skuas and herring gulls of
monstrous size, crying and shrieking, swooping down to pick bits out of the
water, fighting over a bit of food, drifting sideways on the swift current,
anchored on far side in calmer water like a flotilla of little white yachts.
Amazing number of high class
confectioners in Scotland ,
packed with delicious chocolates which nobody can buy.
Daily Express today says large
force of heavy bombers out over coast last night. News says only Mosquitos. Apparently no divers last night.
To cinema café – met
Ann McLean [a nurse at Inverness Hospital]. Cinema, same show as last night. Out in teeming rain. Walked back to hospital. Arranged to see her again. Feel v. ill, though, better during day. Bitter cold.
