Bonnie morrrrning .... ....

9th December 2021 (Thursday)   11.00 .... we have another bonnie morning; 


and my washing is on the line, though it’s not the best of drying days.... there’s only a light breeze.

We had another beautiful sunrise this morning;  very peaceful so I have another batch of photographs to ‘play’ with.    By ‘play’ I mean sort out.   Actually I could end up with more;  I might go out in the car for a change of scene.....I have to go for the paper anyway.


16.30    Instead of going out in the car I had a short walk up to the golf course in the middle of the afternoon.    By that time the sky was clouding over, and there was never going to be a visible sunset, but I enjoyed ‘roamin’ in the gloamin’.   

The washing I hung out this morning didn’t dry, so,  with there being a chance of light rain showers overnight, I brought it (the washing) in, and will dangle it out again tomorrow.    There’s going to be a drying breeze and loads (I hope) of sunshine.


19.00   This has been another quick day;  today was  ending before I really got going.   That’s what happens when the nights are longer than the days.   Having said that it will be the Winter Solstice (the shortest day ..or ...the light bit between the two longest nights) on the 21st.  Spring is just round the corner, and the daffy down dilly’s.







22.30    When I put out the bucket (Grey one) there had been a shower of rain because


the road was wet.   The showers are to fade out overnight, and tomorrow is to be ‘bright and breezy.    I haven’t a ‘plan’ for tomorrow but I must charge the bike battery , because there’s spell of warmer weather coming our way, and I want to take advantage of it.

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
