Right, as promised a few days ago, here is a photo of Balmaha Bay, a few miles down the road from us.
You can see the double yellow lines at the side of the road under the water, and in the middle of the picture are two way markers - a three-sided metal one and a small wooden post. They are next to a footpath called the West Highland Way, which runs along the stone wall and is normally well over a metre above the water level! The trees on the left give you an idea of where the water's edge should be.
Needless to say I am working from home today after almost failing to get home last night, when the debris on another stretch of the road was far worse than it is now:
Every piece of wood you see here (even that rather large branch on the right) was across the road last night, and the Loch was across the road as well. During the night the waves have pushed the debris right across the road, so having blocked it, the Loch also reopened it. How considerate ...
