Denise: It’s not so long since going to the aid of a crofting neighbour meant helping with rounding up the sheep or mending the byre roof: but this afternoon J helped our neighbour Joan MacKinnon by getting her computer going again. And whilst he was there he set up workgroup and file/printer sharing. It’s what neighbours are for! They’re about half a mile away, but in the snow it was safer to walk,. He  called in at Mairi-Cait and Padraig on the way back: they were warm and cosy in the kitchen with the Rayburn glowing.
