A survey has revealed that one third of the rubbish washed up on the coast of West Scotland originates from America and that amounts of floating rubbish in general, have increased by 40% in the last ten years.

John Major is visiting Israel at the moment and has tried to explain his policy differences between his meeting ex-terrorist Yasser Arrafat of the PLO on the one hand, and his attitude concerning the position of Gerry Adams of Sein Fein on the other but the newspapers say that Britain is making a fool of itself.

The Labour Party Executive tackle the re-drafting of their Clause Four now that Tony Blair's visit to Scotland has obtained their backing. "Wealth, Power and Opportunity should be in the hands of the many and not the few" is the key theme.

Council Tax bills are increasing by 10% this year, twice the rate of inflation, due to reductions in central government funding. I walked Sam both morning and afternoon today; taking him hunting on his first expedition and retrieving on the next.

He found and pointed a rabbit and hen pheasant and then flushed a deer in the morning mist. His dummy-work was fine later and I am quite pleased with him overall.

Worked on my CIX off line readers, once I got back this morning as I still had Wiggly's PC link lead and could experiment with transferring scratchpads between my PC and Psion.

Diana was shopping and I could exchange email messages with Wiggly. Lunch and then more work on my accounts this afternoon until it was time for Sam again.

After a nice tea with the family, I went round to  Wiggly to see her friend Tracey to take her out for a drink and try to persuade her to stand with Louise for the Town Council.

She is thinking about it. It was a useful evening as I put up Wiggly's pine spice rack at last when I arrived and then reaped my own reward at the end of the evening in the normal way. I got back well after midnight.
