I do like to live beside the seaside particularly when the sun is shining!

It's been a while since I've blogged, in fact it's been a while since I've visited the site but with the lovely weather, friends visiting and business doing well there just doesn't seem to be enough hours in the day.
Thanks Duncan for all your Broadband info - don't suppose you can find out when Iona will get it? The AIE guy told us in January that we would have it by the end of June but I haven't heard an update since then.
Island news - the 2 hotels held an election night theme night on May 5th which was really good with a very imaginative menu - gave us a good excuse to go out and not watch all the election stuff on TV.
The Friday night dances in the village hall have recommenced for the summer and as a result I fell asleep on the beach the following day while trying to recover and now have one bright red ankle and one red ear. Not a good look. Was hoping for some more sunshine today to try and balance up the suntan but sadly today was a bit dull and drizzly. Just as well we had our barbie last night.
Iona, like the other islands has a chronic housing shortage and on Tuesday the Iona Housing Partnership have a public meeting in the Library so it will be interesting to hear whether they are making progress with their project to build some affordable rented accommodation on the island.
