Rain

So the snow that was here, has all but gone and the rains back on and off on a north west wind thats getting stronger and dying away. But it's not all doom and gloom, day light is coming in before 6 and its gone near on 7 at night, long days means more to do, more to be planned and more excitement in the air.

On the wildlife side of things, I've just seen a Shetland Wren on my garden fence, there was a dipper in the garden last week which was pretty cool, the oyster catchers have been back for a couple of weeks, with puffins, dunlins, bonxies, swans, geese and more all now making the islands suddenly come alive after months of peace, black cold seas and few signs of life, except of course for the fur seal seen up in Yell.

I start diving at the weekend, got plans to enter two triathlons at least in the summer so training for that starts on monday, it should have got going already but with doing my back in and subsequent sciatica training is not something that happens quickly. On top of all that, got one interpretation project starting if funding comes through, 3 jobs applications in, and two tender documents to get together, so as ever its all go as theres more to do on top of all that.
