.... 10.00 There’s
been a lot of rain
 |
| Bonnie (but breezy) morning. |
overnight: snow on the west of Fife.... but it is bright and
breezy this morning. I went down to
the harbour for a change of scene, and a place to shelter, out of the wind,
when taking photographs; because it is
cold out. Colin, who originally set
out for a game of golf, (but no one else had turned up), had a turn down to the
harbour instead. He was well organised,
having an insulated mug full of coffee.
I have one of those mugs; and I use it in the evening when on the
computer. I’ll use it before I go out
in the car in future.
There
was one other man at the harbour; he was
getting ready to go wind surfing. I
was cold just looking at the water; I
couldn’t imagine going out on the water .... even wearing a wet suit.

| 'Harbour House' late in the afternoon. |
21.00 It has been a lovely day, but cold before
the wind dropped away tae practically nothing. With it being a quiet evening, I decided
to go out and get photos of Elie, Kinneuchar and St Monans kirks floodlit; but
only Kinneuchar Kirk was floodlit. I
did Kinneuchar Kirk, and went out the Balbuthie road to see if St Monans Auld
Kirk was lit but it wasn’t, and found out when I reached Elie that our kirk
wasn’t either. If I remember correctly
Elie had problems with the floodlights being vandalised a couple of years ago. Anyway I’m a happy bunny albeit a tired
one: though I can’t understand why I’m
tired ‘cos most of my day has been spent
either writing cards or pottering about with photographs on the computer. Oh ... I went out in the afternoon to catch
the sunset from the Toft.... by that time the wind had moderated. I must get a pair of fingerless

gloves ‘cos
it’s cold operating the camera at this time of year.... especially in the
evening! I’ve just realised that, in 6
days we’ll be starting the climb back to summer time.
Tomorrow’s
‘plan’? I have an appointment in
Leven, and Jim is also wanting needing to go to Leven.
It will be a quick trip as there’s Memorial Service for Robert’s wife in
Kinneuchar Kirk at 13.00. I think the weather
for tomorrow isn’t bad; Tuesday’s is not
so good.
