In the Outer Hebrides, sharing information about the place and whatever takes my interest.

HS2 is the postal code for areas in the Isle of #Lewis outside #Stornoway. If they would be prepared to spend the £102bn earmarked for the HS2 rail project on the likes of #Tolsta, #Point, #Lochs, #Uig, the West Side and #Ness, we'd be a better place for sure.

Stornoway on the Sunday after the Hebcelt revellers left

@sweenyness That's not terribly good. Your download and upload speeds are slow. Don't know whether you can get anything better up your way, but this does not look fantastic.

Even the plants and flowers in the Lews Castle Grounds stand in sympathy with #Ukraine.

North Beach Street in Stornoway on #solstice night. It may look deserted, but there was plenty life in the pubs!

The massive glacier collapse that covered the #Swiss village of #Blatten last week has already been mapped by the Swiss mapping service. The area is marked in light-brown, with the word "Bergsturz" just below the name Blatten. Don't confuse this Blatten with the one near Brig.

@BBCNewsnight Could have given more background to this guest; he was Putin's 1st PM, but has turned into a critic, tried to stand against Putin in 2007 (but was disallowed) and is now living (as captioned) in Latvia.

@gmrpetricca Was there a beginning of vorticity in the shower that passed over SY at exactly 5pm?

[adb44 @adb44]

@sweenyness We had 93 mph in Stornoway at 11.40 am

@BBCNews #Moldova borders #Ukraine and #Romania, not #Russia, as suggested on the News at One.

@uncoovr There will be no peace in Europe until Russia withdraws from Ukraine. Until such time, I reject any such utterances from Putin, the architect of unprovoked wars.

@JoeBiden By not supplying arms to Ukraine, the USA is indirectly reneging on its article 5 obligations under the NATO treaty. If #Ukraine️ loses its #ukrainewarwithussia, a NATO member state could be attacked next...

@sweenyness Did you also visit Stromness?

[adb44 @adb44]

@cne_siar Could you confirm whether bin uplifts (in Stornoway) will take place on Wednesday 31st January, in view of the strong winds forecast?

[TORRO (Tornado & Storm Research Organisation) @TorroUK]

Following a site investigation TORRO have confirmed that Stalybridge was hit by a tornado late on Wednesday 27th Dec 2023 with a provisional maximum damage rating of T5. https://t.co/grlJA4IKgU

@sweenyness That's why Gaelic learners, like me, are told to mind their accents. Eilean Bòd = Isle of Bute, but Eilean Bod = Isle of the Penis.

Stand with #Israel. By all means.
Support the #Palestinians. By all means.
Hope and pray they'll end up standing with each other, and supporting each other

[adb44 @adb44]

#Israel and the #Palestinians. Just my take.
