Crackin' mornin' ....


16th December 2019 (Monday)       12.30 .... You will have guessed that I have been in “‘flap on’ State 1”  this morrrrrrning which explains why I am late with the Hutte.    Anyway everything that I had to do has been done and I now relaxing with ....yep ... a cuppa.
Sunrise time this morning over Elie Bay.

We have had a lovely morning.... apart from a short  rainy spell... so I was out on the bike;  and I even remembered to pick up my prescription.    Earlier I had been on the beach for sunrise time ... David and I had the beach to ourselves.... along with David’s dog.   We could see rain clouds moving in from the Northwest so didn’t hang about:  though I did take time to write “Merry Christmas” (twice) on the beach.


16.00    Welll .... I’ve had a busy day but at last I can say that I am organised;    and the rucksack is not heavy but it looks bulky.    That’s due to the bag of pills which though light in weight take up a bit of room;   I only take two pills daily .....  but they’re big lauds.   Maybe I should make them out of the boxes!    Oh I nearly forgot my ‘moothie’.... my word...  it (the rucksack) will be heavier!

Interesting sky ... and light.
The weather has been a bit iffy this afternoon;  not that I’ve been very far;   as far as Ken and Irene’s to leave a key .... and have a coffee and catch up with the ‘news’ from Williams-burgh!   Much the same ‘news’ as Earlsferry .... i.e. none.  Actually it’s hard finding folk to talk to in the ‘Royal Burgh’ now.... the gaps between permanently occupied houses are getting wider .... which is why I go down to the beach!
The forecast for tomorrow is good..... sunny intervals and a moderate breeze’.    The weather in Sussex is .... er ... wet!

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
