Bonnie sunrise....


5th February 2020 (Wednesday)     09.00 .... We had a bonnie sunrise
Nice morning .... but cool.
this morning .... a mix of red and gold;   bonnie but ominous.    I enjoyed being on the beach early but I didn’t stay around as there is a cool breeze, though not too obvious in the lee of the dunes.    Marcia was out with the dogs and there was another dog walker going along the edge of the tide but there wisnae anyone building sand castles.   It’s a nice morning for being out;  well wrapped up.


Elie beach this afternoon.
11.30    Oh my word  .... ‘The Hutte’ is guilty of spreading ‘fake news.    Harbour House isn’t opening until tomorrow morning.    Apologies to anybody who was looking forward to morning coffee this morrrrrning;   I know that for a deflated person I don’t look very deflated but I had been looking forward to tormenting Laura and Brenda ... oops I mean morning coffee.   I met Geoff in ‘the ‘Paper Shop’ and we went to the Pavilion.... but I’m assured that ‘arbour ‘ouse is opening tomorrrrrow.   Fake news?     No.... well I don’t think so.

 20.00     I am happy with today’s efforts ... at work that is.    My efforts at relaxing went
The Ferry beach.
‘a bit agley’.... although I did enjoy the chat and coffee in the ‘Pav’ with Geoff.    Myra... . our Leader ...  had to leave us to our own devices today as she was off on a mission.    Everything should be back to normal tomorrow.

At one time today I had a plan for tomorrow but I’ve forgotten what it was.    The new plan is to go to Elie for the paper, have morrrrning coffee, then do the ironing.    If it isn’t too breezy and cold I’ll get the bike out in the afternoon.    I intend visiting Jim on Friday.   Of course that might all change if I remember what the original plan was.

Graham asked me to place a couple of notices in the notice board outside the Ferry Hall this morrrrrning.   There was only one space and all the other notices were still ‘active’ however I managed to jiggle them about and get both notices in without obscuring any of the others.   (I think one of them goes out of date tomorrow.)   It’s good to see the board ‘full’ as it means there’s a lot going on;  I must read them more and keep up with what is going on around me.

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
