Bright, and very breezy morning ....
25th
June 2017 (Sunday)
... 10.00 We have another ‘bright and
very breezy’ morning, with the chance of showers later..... it's a good 'drying' day. I have
been doing some gardening, and general tidying up around Ivy.

Today’s
‘News’ is all about the Camden flats being evacuated; it must have been horrible for the people to
be woken up in the middle of the night and told that you had to pack a few
things, and leave your home. I can
understand why the Council had to do it;
as soon as the Fire Service declared the flats unsafe any insurance would
most likely be nullified. It is a
catastrophic state of affairs.
20.30 I was
about to go down to the beach at 20.00, when a blustery shower came over so
that was the end of that ‘plan’; it was
the only shower we’ve had, on what has been a windy, mostly ‘bright and sunny’
day. I should get down to the beach
later, because the shower has moved away and the sun is out again.

This
has been a productive kind of day for me, though not very ‘active’ in the way
of exercise. Jimmy came along for a
morning ‘fly cup’ at Ivy then we went down to the Sailing Club for a cuppa at ‘Lorraine’s
Place’.... with Lorraine and Stewart.
The harbour area was quiet, but it was windy and none too warm at that time. Steve came in which just as Jimmy and I were
getting ready to leave; but we stopped
for a wee while to find out what has been happening in ‘Steve’s World’. We found out that the former ‘Elie Fayre
Day’ has been renamed ‘Elie on the Green’ and will ‘happen’ on the Toll Green
(this explains the change of name)..... so not only has it been renamed it has
been re-located. ‘The Fayre Day’ was always
at the harbour. The ‘Toll Green’ is
the
‘grassy bit’ with the main flag pole, in the middle of Elie.

Jimmy and I took a run up to see the 'Oak House'.... and found that the 'Oak garage' has been built too!
I
fancied, and made, ‘macaroni cheese’ for dinner today, and made enough to
freeze four individual portions. I’ve
done ‘nae bad’ at producing ‘ready meals’ over the past couple of weeks. Tomorrow I must get ‘up and out’
early; the weather forecast for tomorrow
is much the same as today, but the wind is going to go round to the East, by
Tuesday. Not good.
