Lovely late 'sunrise' over the Chapel ruin ....

27th September 2017 (Wednesday) .... 09.30     After a really long and restful night’s sleep, I woke up to find that we had a lovely morning, albeit a bit hazy,
'Sunrise' over the Chapel ruin.
but nice for getting out and about ... even though the wind is from the Southeast.
  I had a good walk ... along the beach, round Chapel Green and home by the golf course:   meeting and chatting to Carol on the beach, and another lady out walking her dogs up at Chapel Green;  so I’m a contented ‘boy’, who is now looking forward to the Colinsburgh Lite Lunch at 12.30.

20.30    Earlsferry is busy with holiday makers still .... that and building work... so there’s plenty of folk to speak to.   The weather hasn’t been bad at all today, though it’s going to rain later, and overnight.
We had the Colinsburgh Lite Lunch today;  a choice of two soups, and two sweets, plus tea/coffee and biscuits... and best of all... company and chat.   All my Colinsburgh

girlfriends were there, so there was much noise!    Jimmy and I went down to the harbour after the ‘lunch’ ... just to see what was ‘going on’:  not much as it happens on the ground, but the sky was busy... with  interesting clouds and light.   We then went back to Ivy and had a cuppa, before going along to Leven so that Jimmy could ‘top up his larder’, with porridge, and other foodstuffs he was running out of.     Jimmy likes to have a decent stockpile of grub .... I think he is worried about a bad winter.

AH Varazze, Atlantic Kestrel and Transocean Prospect should reach the Strait of Gibraltar in a couple of days;   I imagine I will lose them soon after they get into the Mediterranean, but I might get lucky when they are at the toe of Italy.    This is a good way for me to improve my Geography.    I now know where their final destination, the ship breakers yard at Aliaga, in Turkey, actually is ‘on the map’.... and how big the
Lonely beach hut.
yard is!    Our redundant aircraft carriers, Invincible, Illustrious and Ark Royal were dismantled there.

Tomorrow we have the ‘Drop in Cafe’ in the afternoon:  I must remember to go for the papers tomorrow, having completely forgotten about them today.    The weather forecast is ‘nae bad’ for tomorrow, ... after some overnight/early morning rain.
