Rain pelting down, wind blowing up the street. Not a nice afternoon to be out and about. A gastanker is moored in the towncentre, to deliver another consignment of LPG for us to cook our suppers on. Yippee. In years to come, this hazardous sort of activity will hopefully be relocated 2 miles down the coast to Glumag Harbour, and out of the town centre. Does anyone recall the Buncefield explosion in December 2005?
In this incident, a fuel depot blew up north of London, severely damaging houses and an industrial estate, but fortunately without loss of life. If the fueltanks in the centre of Stornoway blew up - well, doesn't bear thinking about.
Tropical cyclone Gula is causing concern in Mauritius. Although it isn't due for another 3 days, I have already had 400 hits on my TC blog in the last 16 hours alone. Last year, TC Gamede attracted thousands of hits on my old, AOL-based, TC blog.

Amazing picture! I'm sure I heard of what happened at Buncefield but memory betrays. 400 hits that's incredible. Gula definitely worth noting. CATHY

Wow, that looks like the explosion we had here in town a few months back, when the propane truck and tanks blew up. Happy to hear no one was killed. Linda in Washington state http://journals.aol.com/lsfp1

It's considerably nicer here than there right now. It went up to 60 today. What a tremendous number of hits on your TC blog! I hope they relocate the LPG delivery point to the harbor down the coast. Too much risk right in town like that. Hopefully it won't take years to do it.
