Nice morning ....

23rd April 2026 (Thursday)     "Happy St George's Day" to all my friends in 'Sunny England'! 09.00 .... Although the sky is mostly cloudy just now, we should end up with a nice sunny intervals day once the sun gets going.    I haven't been further than the gate but it doesn't feel as cold as it was yesterday;  probably because there's only a light breeze.   Then 'plan' is.... to go to Methil and annoy Alice, then do a bit of shopping for Iain coming at the weekend,   I'll have another cuppa before I do anything else! 19.30     Apart from the chilly wind off the North Sea this has been another lovely,,sunny, Spring day.   As per 'plan' I went to Leven, and Methil.   The only hold up were the roadworks at Lundin Links.  Actually, there didn't seem to be anybody working on site;  the only movement I saw was when the traffic lights changed colour!   It was the same on the return journey...

22nd April 2026 (Wednesday)      09.45 ....  The overnight 'low' on the thermometer was was 3.2C so we had a chilly stat to the morning.;  it's 9.4C , now with a light breeze.     It will  be cool on the beach.   There's  already heat in the early sunshine, so really warm sheltered from the breeze.   This could the day that I get 'The Buggy' out .... after morning coffee. 1 2.00    The sun is starting to break through the cloud that has been with us for  most of the morning;   I'm looking forward to a sunny afternoon!    Unfortunately there's a moderate breeze, and, being off the North Sea it's chilly.    I have been 'working';   d inner has been organised for tonight ... the tautties peeled etc.   I'm having 'sausages and mash' (with vegetables), one of my favourites. 19.15    It has been a nice Spring day, albeit a cold one when  out in ...

21st April 2026 (Tuesday)    09.30 .... We have sunny spells, with occasional  drizzle, blowing through on a brisk, and chilly Easterly wind.    It is a 'wrap up well morning;  especially  before going anywhere near the breach, or golf course.   Me? .... I haven't  got a 'plan', but I think this will be a 'stay in and warm' day:  probably mostly in 'The Hutte' once the sun warms it up.    I'll venture up to the 'Paper shop'  after morning coffee;  but won't be going to the harbour. 17.30     As per 'plan' I went to the 'Paper Shop;  where I caught up with the local News, then on to Colinsburgh to put fuel in the car: not an enjoyable task nowadays.    The present 'Leader of the Western World'  will go down in history as the most disruptive President of the USA  .... ever!    Let's hope that the talks, that might take place in Pakistan sometime, extends the 'cease...

20th April 2026 (Monday)      09.15 .... It'a a bonnie morning for being out and about;   I might get 'The buggy' out today;   but April showers are mentioned  in the weather forecast so I'll see how that develops.  I'm feeling? .... 'almost playful' actually,    But the 'plan' is to have a quiet day;  one of the things I'm going to do is post my Postal Vote.   Right now it's time to  have an early morning coffee.    oops ... I sneezed!    20.00    I've had a busy day.   In the morning I posted my Postal Vote, and, being as the car was pointing to the harbour I  went there;  for the firs time in a couple of weeks.   There was hardly any wind so it wasn't cold;  and I was well wrapped up. The villages are still busy with holiday folk;  or I should maybe say, 'folk I don't know'.    Some of them could be 'new locals'! As you can see fro...

Lovely morning ....

19th April 2026 (Sunday)     09.30 ..... It's a an absolutely beautiful morning;  sunny and warm, with a light, but cool,  Northwesterly breeze.... a nice morning for the joggers.  I might even make it as far as 'Nana's Seat' sometime today.    Actually I might get 'The Buggy' out later;  it depends on how busy the Ferry Road is.    At the moment it's quiet.    Oops ....a migraine has just kicked in;  that will cramp my activities a bit.   Off to take the pills.  18.45    It's a gorgeous evening,  so I ventured up to my usual place  at the end of the Kinneuchar Station road to get a few 'today photies.   And 'lo and behold', there was 'His Nibs' strutting his stuff.  He started to give me the warning off signs;  that let me know that his wife must be sitting nearby.   I was hoping he'd step into the sunny bit, but no;  he was mair interested in war...

18th August 2026 (Saturday)     09.45 ..... I've been 'up and running'(?) since 06.45 this morning, thinking of going to Nana's Seat for an early morning 'walk';  but it's to windy and cold to be out in the open.    It's a nice enough morning, with April Showers forecast;  that means 'sunny spells' in between the showers.    I'll most likely work in the, hopefully cosy, 'Hutte'.  There's 'work' that I want, and need, to do.   Today is the start of a spell of colder weather according to the BBC weather lassie (Elizabeth Rizzini) this morning.   We need a spell of warm weather to shake of the winter ailments.   I'm going to venture out to check the thermometer. 19.00    Apart from a couple of squally showers in the afternoon, we've had a nice day at KY9;  right enough it has been breezy with a bit windchill so not as warm as  I'd like.    However it was warm in 'The Hutte'.  ...

17th April 2026 (Friday)     09.50 .... We have an overcast sky with la light shower just now, but it's warm (11.2C) ;  and the sky has promising signs of 'sunny spells' now and again.   The joggers have been out, and Andy went out with his golf clubs,  so all is good at Ferry Road.    Me? ..... I've been as far as the thermometer.... and have done some 'ousework.    I'm actually feeling playful, but will remain calm and get on with the  'work'.   I might go out after morning coffee. 15.45    I ser off for Nana's Seat, as I did yesterday, and got as far as Ferry Corner, found that the wind had freshened and it was much colder than expected!   I wasn't well wrapped up because I'd been in 'The Hutte'.    I might try for Nana's Seat  again .... tomorrow! Actually, it has been a day of mixed weather, quite cloudy with a couple of short spells of light rain.   I'm going to make ...
