Inverness has had lovely weather lately, even managing to be warm on top of sunny, which is somewhat of a rarity. However, to remind us all that summer is not yet here, it has rained loads today. It's forecast to be nice on election day, Thursday, though – which should hopefully do more for a high turnout than the politicians have.

So I am spending the evening writing, and listening to music. I bought OK Cowboy by Vitalic, a French techno DJ. It is very good: heavy and energetic, and yet catchy and light-hearted. I can highly recommend it. If you like French techno, that is.
