Considered cleaning the windows ....


21st March 2019 (Thursday) .... 08.30     It could be my imagination ... but
Peaceful afternoon.
the air seems colder and damper this morning;  having said that, it is overcast, and there is a brisk wind so it probably is colder.    Rain is in the forecast for tomorrow.
I’m feeling kind of ‘playful’ this morning;  in fact so playful that I thought  about cleaning the windows, however I quickly tuned in to another, more sensible, brain cell;  the ‘leisure activities’ one.   I’ll have another cuppa while mulling over the choices.

12.00    This is Thursday... the day that I’m talking to the Colinsburgh girls.    In the afternoon so I’d better get a move on;  I still have the ‘rools’ type up, and print off.
The sky has broken up to give us a lovely day .... and the wind has moderated some so it feels warmer.   I’ve been up to Elie for the paper... and morning coffee... and came home via Balbuthie Loan. 
Williamsburgh.
20.00     Oh ... what an enjoyable afternoon I had with the Colinsburgh girls:  it was perfect.   I knew all the ‘girls’, and I was really happy and relaxed.    I might join the Colinsburgh WRI!    Irene had borrowed the projector from Pat;     the laptop that Iain gave me had the proper connections and everything went smoothly.  
When I got back home I went straight down to the beach and sat on Nana’s seat and thought about how lucky I am living where I do, surrounded by friendly people:  I feel like I’m ‘in love’.
I don’t have a plan for tomorrow;   I’ll see what the weather is like before I make a ‘plan’.... it’s supposed to be much like today, but with the chance of light rain around midday.    I might have a lie in .... especially if it is dull and damp.   I’m tired ;  I think it’s an early night in bed with my book.

Pittenweem swimming pool....

20th September 2017 (Wednesday) ... 13.30    When I went along to Elie for the papers this morning, I got slightly diverted and ended up along at the old Pittenweem tidal swimming pool.  Pittenweem  swimming pool.    Unfortunately we have a, mostly overcast, with occasional spits and spots of rain, morning.     I must go back on a ‘bright and  sunny’ morning... this will show up the different colours of the sandstone rocks etc better.    It is an interesting spot, and would have been busy in the 1930’s , 40’s and 50’s.        20.30     My day has been spent pottering around Ivy... including baking a batch of wholemeal scones.    Note to self .... I must remember to freeze some of them this time;  rather than feed them to Blob and his pals.     It has been a grey and sometimes damp day;  not a day for bumbling about outside.    The ‘cold’ that I had last night didn’t come to anything.... I must have been tired after Solid infrastructure at Pittenweem swimming pool. my wand

Cold and overcast ....

18th April 2024 (Thursday)    08.00 .... The Fife Weather cams are all showing an overcast sky:  rain hasn't reached Fife so far, but is expected to arrive by mid morrrrrrrning...."light rain and a fresh Westerly breeze" being the forecast until later in the afternoon;  but we're going to end the day with a bonnie evening.  Hmmmmm .... I don't think I'll be painting any bits of the shed today; and that was my project to take my mind off the car.   Computer stuff it will have to be:  I'm actually in a writing mood so this might not be a wasted day. 09.00   Forget the heap oops... car (it's in the 'bad car' corner);  I'm excited because the workmen are here to begin work on the patio. They arrived a wee while ago;  unfortunately spits and spots o' rain arrived at the same time and, if  the rain is heavy and prolonged they won't be able to do much.   Showers are OK but not prolonged rain.  Must 'go' got to have another cuppa

Quiet morning ....

 5th October 2023 (Thursday)     09.30.... The crock pot has been fired up with a batch o’ Scotch Broth, George’s bucket has been put out for tomorrow morning....I have had breakfast, and now on my third cuppa of the morning; hoping for a stress free day.   The past two days were not stress free. Yesterday began really well.... I got the car insurance sorted, and was   settling down to check FB.    I saw a photograph captioned ‘Seal on a floe .... or was it?’   Being inquisitive I ‘clicked’ on it;   and that   was it .... flashing warnings all over the computer screen.     I’d been hacked.   A small window appeared purporting to be from Microsoft Security so I clicked on that and got an 0800 number to phone;    which I did and was answered by an Indian.     That’s when I should have pulled the plug on the computer.    However, h e as very   plausible so I began to follow his instructions for a few minutes... then  began to get suspicious;   especially when he began to insist that I
