Lovely morning ....

20th April 2022 (Wednesday )    07.30 ....I’m feelin’ fairly frolicsome;  which


isnae bad after a restless night;  my arm was tender at the injection site and I kept waking up.  The arm feels fine now that I’m vertical, but I know what’s going to happen when I sit down to watch the ‘News’ after lunch.

We have a bonnie start to the day but there’s a cool breeze orf the sea;  that said, it will be warm when sheltered from said breeze.   My ‘plan’ is to potter around the garden in the afternoon.  

20.00    I was a week early for my blood test appointment, which I am happy about ‘cos yesterday’s jab has upset my routine completely.    This the first time I’ve had Pfizer jab and I ain’t likin’ it.   At least my arm is no longer sore so I should get a good night’s sleep.

I enjoyed the ‘istory Society cuppa at the Pav;  there’s always something interesting talked about.   When I set off to come home I left my camera bag on the ground;  it was right where I left it when I went back to get it.   I’ve had an exciting day.

The ‘plan’ was to go for the Colinsburgh ‘Lite Bite’ lunch but I fell asleep having a quick cuppa in the Hutte, so missed it.   Myra was there and said there was a good attendance.

It has been a nice enough day but easterly breeze meant that haar has been hanging around most of the time.... and it has been colder.  The cool wind is going to be with us for the next few days unfortunately.

I have no plans for tomorrow though I am hoping to have shaken off the after effects of the ‘jab’.   I’m thinkin’ tomorrow might be a restful drawing day.

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

 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
