Bright and breezy ....

9th June 2026 (Tuesday)     09.15 ....  I'm seriously beginning to think of a long hot warm summer

with this kind of sunny weather.   We have a lovely sunny start to the day, but light rain showers are forecast.    They (the light rain showers), will arrive after the jerseys, that I'm going to hang out in a wee while, have dried!    We have clouds drifting over on a moderate Westerly wind, but they're cotton wool clouds at the moment.  Anyway it's a lovely morning;  and I'm feeling positive!     This is going to be a 'work' morning, followed by a 'rest and play' afternoon.

18.30     It has been a lovely summer's day;  well it was until the sky began to cloud over about 17.00, bringing rain (and thunder about an hour later.    This has been a good day for me;  jersey's dry, and in, long before the rain came to water the tubs!    This would have been a really good day but I had a migraine in the middle of the morning, and that meant progress was slower than I wanted, but I'm happy with what I have done.

Bob came round  in the morning so we had a good old blether sitting in The Hutte.   There was a nice breeze lowing do The Hutte was comfortably warm.    When Bob went off saying he was "to make Ann's lunch",  ....or... he might have said "I wonder what Ann has got me for lunch?  
Me? ....  I got the camera and went up to the phone box,  to get  today's photographs.   At that time the clouds were of the fluffy kind;  as you can see in the photographs.    They are not of the fluffy kind now;  and I'm not going out to take a photo!   It's raining heavily just now.    

The thunder will have 'cleared the air', and I should be loupin aboot, like a Spring lamb tomorrow.    The bedroom should be near enough finished ....if I am feeling frolicsome.   The weather is going to be much the same as today's.

Quiet morning ....

7th May 2025 (Wednesday)    08.15 .... "Sunny intervals with a light breeze" is today's weather forecast for.... KY9, Ellon, Uckfield (Sussex) and London:  it's going to be a bonnie day all over the UK.  The breeze is from the Easterly direction so the East coast will be cooler; but it will be warm sheltered from the breeze.   It's a nice, peaceful kind of morning at Elie and Earlsferry:  the sky is a mix of fluffy clouds and blue bits, and the temperature is 11.6C just now.   3.3C was the minimum overnight.  20.30     I'd been reading about the cyber attack on M & S, Harrods and the Co-op... so, feeling inquisitive, for my morning 'mission' I decided to go to The Store (Ainster) and see how the 'attack' was affecting our local 'Store'.   The first thing I noticed was the car park wasn't as busy as normal and all the Disabled spaces were empty.  Inside the store,  the empty vegetable and fruit...

3rd October 2025 (Friday)     10.30 .... It's a quiet morning; after a lot of overnight rain this is the calm before the storm.... 'Storm Amy', that is going to bring strong winds and heavy rain, this afternoon and Saturday.  It could be a good drying morning!   Anyway all is still at the moment.   I'm going to see if I can rescue a few of the apples that are still attached to the tree.    Actually I think I'll have morning coffee first. 04 12.30    We had a power cut  (45 minutes) last night ,so I unplugged the computer.    We got the torches and candles out, chatted for a while then went to bed.

4th August 2025 (Monday)    08.45 ....  It's breezy with light rain just now;  but the rain is going to move away and the wind freshen to 'gale', with sunny intervals and squally showers, by midday.   There could interesting clouds, and stormy seas.    I won't be going out on the bike!    High tide is at 11.20;  there will be an abundance of fresh air on the beach today.  11.00  The wind is freshening, from the SW, as can be seen in the photo of the 'Glenfuir' flags (Swiss, USA and Jersey).    Sunny intervals are starting to come over, so it's a bonnie enough day now, albeit breezy:  F5 - 6 with stronger gusts now and again. 19.30  It has certainly been a wild old day, but the wind is moderating, and tomorrow will be much quieter.   It was F8 - 9 at times out on the bay.   Which is why HMS Iron Duke (Type 23 frigate) is sheltering off Elie and Earlsferry.      HMS Iro...
