Alberto's Hutte

2nd May 2026 (Saturday)      09.15 .... It's a lovely sunny morning, with a light breeze form the Westerly direction just now but backing to the Easterly direction by in the afternoon;   light showers are mentioned in the weather forecast for KY9.   I haven't a 'plan' for today;  if the roads are quiet later I might get 'the Buggy out;  I say later, because Ferry Road is busy just now.    It's 'early morning coffee' time! 15.00    I've had a reasonably busy morning in The Hutte;  the roads were, and are,  too busy for me to take 'The Buggy' out .   We've had a nice sunny day s far, but the sky is clouding  over over, and we have the chance of showers in the late afternoon/ evening time. I that Jewish people suffered from so much hatred.   They are actually frightened to go 'walking' like we do;  that shouldn't happen in the UK, or anywhere for that matter.   I'm sure that ...

1st May 2026 (Friday)      09.45 ....Is this not the morning when we're supposed to wash our faces with morning dew?    Anyway by the time i got up (slept in)  the morning dew had been evaporated by a warm sun, aided by a drying breeze.    Face washed in the shower, had breakfast, taken a  hay fever pill;  yes... I'm  ready to 'rock 'n roll.     Going by the Glenfuir flags (I can see them) the breeze is from the SSW. 20.30   Although we have light rain just now, most of the daylight hours have been mostly sunny and warm.   Even with the rain the air is warm;  and the pollen count 'low'.    I've had a l az ... er ... restful day.   I didn't mean be 'lazy';  nut I sat down to watch the snooker after lunch and it was so exciting that I couldn't stop watching it.    It's the World Championships (from the Crucible in Sheffield ... on BBC 2 usually)).  ...

30th April 2026 (Thursday)      09.00 ..... It's bright and sunny  this morning, with a frisky SE breeze, so there will be windchill to contend with on then beach.   I'm feeling  mair adventurous and have decided to go and annoy Alice, then do some shopping in Leven.    There's  been some heavy traffic on Ferry Road;  either that or my hearing aids are too loud.    Must 'go';  'slight Flap On' this morning. 20.00    We've had another lovely, sunny day;  and it was warm as long as you were sheltered from the onshore wind.    At one point it was blowing F 4 -5 out in the bay.    This dry Easterly wind is disagreeable ro the tubes;  but brilliant for drying claes. I had a pleasant trip to Leven and Methil;  the roads were busy both ways, but nobody was driving like they should have set off half an hour earlier.    Alice had the kettle 'on' when I arrived, so we had ...

29th April 2026 (Wednesday)      09.15 ....  We have a "bright, with a light Easterly breeze' morning";    definitely a 'play day'.    The temperature went down to 2.6C overnight, but is now at 6.8C.  We should have a lovely, warm day;  though there will be a cool onshore breeze on the beach.... and maybe even on the golf course.   Me? ....  I'm feeling almost 'bright eyed and bushy tailed' this morning;  and ready  to'play' with the new Hoover.    I'll have an early morning coffee first. 14.45    I enjoyed using the new Hoover, but, my word, it was hard work!   Then, after I'd finished,  I remembered that  there's a bit you slide to uncover air holes,  to make it easier on deep pile carpets.    Anyway the Hoover sooks brilliantly;  there's stuff in the stoor container.    Which bin does that go in I wonder? It is a bonnie, sunny day now, and ...

28th April 2026 (Tuesday)     09.30 ..... We have light cloud just now, but sunny intervals  are  forecast for the afternoon.   There's a light Easterly breeze, so I imagine it will be cool on the beach.   It was 10.8C on the thermometer when I went out 10 minutes ago.   Oh.... I don't feel as lethargic as I was yesterday, but I'm not going to over exert myself today!    That's another way of saying that this is going to be a 'stay in and stay warm , and lazy, day.'      17.00     I went out to The Hutte after lunch to do a few Sudoku's, and have my siesta;  actually it wasn't as warm as I thought it would be, because the sun hadn't broken through.   I came in and watched the snooker,  until the Official  Ceremony welcoming the King and Queen to the USA.  That went well, and President Trump's speech was just the right length... with some humour in it.  ...

27th April 2026 (Monday)      09.15 ..... I had fun in the shower this morning;  the water kept going from really hot to cold all the time;  this is caused by low water pressure.    Anyway I danced around, in and out of the water, and had a shower of sorts.   I've done the important thing;  filled up a container with  water for the kettle;  it's all 'go' at Ivy now!    Apparently there's a burst pipe in the Ferry High Street.    Off to have a banana .... and another cuppa.    And, I need the sun to break through and warm up 'The Hutte'.    'Light rain' showers  are mentioned in the weather forecast for KY9.    I think this will be a 'lazy' day for me. 20.00    I said I'd have a 'lazy day' ... and  that is what I've had.    I went up to Chapel Green in the car, and had a short walk around and took a few photies.   I'm always surprised at t...
