Leica glow eh?

Not a chance of a Leica glow as it happens. I don't even own a Leica sticker let alone a lens. I think I can honestly say this is the Industar 61 glow. Or maybe the Polypan-f film glow on account of the film having no anti-halation layer being meant originally for copying movie film.

Or maybe it was such a shock that the sun was shining and The Crofter SMILING for goodness sakes, it started glowing all of it's own accord. Either way, it is nice to see The Crofter glowing.

Murdo, a hosepipe and the interconnector

I notice the huge windmill has been erected - sans wings at the moment. I'm rather disappointed that the thing looks nothing like the pictures I've seen of ones in the Netherlands and even England for goodness sakes. Still, it is a big one as they say and no doubt will make a nice whoosh as it slices through a passing eagles wing. The down side is, the lack of something called an inter-connector that precludes the power from the thing being sent over to the mainland where the poor dears need it.

The villagers are not easily put off it seems as Murdo, fresh from finding an old electric water-pump and some hose-pipe is putting plans together to open the Tolsta Colon Hydrotherapy Centre, pumping water at high pressure from the reservoir at the back and providing an interesting new service to locals, visitors and sheep alike.  Once the grant for the new shed to house the new centre has gone through, Murdo will be announcing the opening date. I shall be there for the opening day - with camera in hand. Watch this space - but not too closely.

In the meantime, you can feast your eyes on Tolsta's lovely surrounds. I got lost and wandered up this way and found a Meades mobile.
