A Facebook post from Ardnamurchan Lighthouse showing a video of the paddle steamer Waverley passing the lighthouse today with dolphins playing at the bow.

Re: MEDICAL MATTERS

When I was in Colne Library this morning a lady came in trying to find over 75s who wanted a Covid vaccination as the Vaccination bus was in Colne but no-one seemed to know it was there. She said the uptake in Barnoldswick had been poor as well. No advertising by the NHS.

Well, not gunpowder tea, but badly crimped tea bags so that when I poured hot water into the mug they expanded, floated to the top and then went pop spraying tea powder out!!
