4th May 2026 (Monday)      10.45 .... I overslept this morning, because I watched  the film ('movie' nowadays) '1917' , and that didn't end until 23.50.   I was in bed by 040030.    It' shows the horrors of WW1 at the beginning, but sort of loses it half way through;  but is an interesting WW1 film.   Anyway we have a bonnie, sunny, and warm, morning here in KY9;  with a moderate drying breeze.   And, the washing is on the line.    I don't really have a 'plan' for today, but I might go out after morning coffee, and after the pills have kicked in.Ferry Road has been quiet, but that might be because I slept in and missed the 'Ferry Road' rush hour(s). 17.15    Elie High Street parking places were full of  parked cars when I went up to the Chemist to hand in my prescription;  even the disabled one!    However I parked in the 'Keep Clear' space next to the Disabled space;  then...

3rd May 2026 (Sunday)     10.00 .... The sky is overcast,  and it has been raining overnight, but its fair now.    Light rain is forecast for the morning, but dry in the afternoon with (let's be positive) sunny spells in the afternoon!   There's a light Easterly breeze so it  will be cool on the beach.    Me? ..... I'm going to potter around Ivy in the morning, then see that the weather is like in the afternoon.   I doubt if I'll take 'The Buggy' out today;  Ferry Road has been busy;  with cars, joggers and walkers. 12.00    It is chilly out (I've been as far as the gate) so I won't be going anywhere this afternoon.    However, we  get a respite from the East wind  tomorrow, as the wind is veering to the West, but only for one day!     I forgot to mention the snooker!    Last night Mark Allen had to pot the black to win through to the Final, 17 frames to 15,...

2nd May 2026 (Saturday)      09.15 .... It's a lovely sunny morning, with a light breeze form the Westerly direction just now but backing to the Easterly direction by in the afternoon;   light showers are mentioned in the weather forecast for KY9.   I haven't a 'plan' for today;  if the roads are quiet later I might get 'the Buggy out;  I say later, because Ferry Road is busy just now.    It's 'early morning coffee' time! 15.00    I've had a reasonably busy morning in The Hutte;  the roads were, and are,  too busy for me to take 'The Buggy' out .   We've had a nice sunny day s far, but the sky is clouding  over over, and we have the chance of showers in the late afternoon/ evening time. I that Jewish people suffered from so much hatred.   They are actually frightened to go 'walking' like we do;  that shouldn't happen in the UK, or anywhere for that matter.   I'm sure that ...

1st May 2026 (Friday)      09.45 ....Is this not the morning when we're supposed to wash our faces with morning dew?    Anyway by the time i got up (slept in)  the morning dew had been evaporated by a warm sun, aided by a drying breeze.    Face washed in the shower, had breakfast, taken a  hay fever pill;  yes... I'm  ready to 'rock 'n roll.     Going by the Glenfuir flags (I can see them) the breeze is from the SSW. 20.30   Although we have light rain just now, most of the daylight hours have been mostly sunny and warm.   Even with the rain the air is warm;  and the pollen count 'low'.    I've had a l az ... er ... restful day.   I didn't mean be 'lazy';  nut I sat down to watch the snooker after lunch and it was so exciting that I couldn't stop watching it.    It's the World Championships (from the Crucible in Sheffield ... on BBC 2 usually)).  ...

30th April 2026 (Thursday)      09.00 ..... It's bright and sunny  this morning, with a frisky SE breeze, so there will be windchill to contend with on then beach.   I'm feeling  mair adventurous and have decided to go and annoy Alice, then do some shopping in Leven.    There's  been some heavy traffic on Ferry Road;  either that or my hearing aids are too loud.    Must 'go';  'slight Flap On' this morning. 20.00    We've had another lovely, sunny day;  and it was warm as long as you were sheltered from the onshore wind.    At one point it was blowing F 4 -5 out in the bay.    This dry Easterly wind is disagreeable ro the tubes;  but brilliant for drying claes. I had a pleasant trip to Leven and Methil;  the roads were busy both ways, but nobody was driving like they should have set off half an hour earlier.    Alice had the kettle 'on' when I arrived, so we had ...

29th April 2026 (Wednesday)      09.15 ....  We have a "bright, with a light Easterly breeze' morning";    definitely a 'play day'.    The temperature went down to 2.6C overnight, but is now at 6.8C.  We should have a lovely, warm day;  though there will be a cool onshore breeze on the beach.... and maybe even on the golf course.   Me? ....  I'm feeling almost 'bright eyed and bushy tailed' this morning;  and ready  to'play' with the new Hoover.    I'll have an early morning coffee first. 14.45    I enjoyed using the new Hoover, but, my word, it was hard work!   Then, after I'd finished,  I remembered that  there's a bit you slide to uncover air holes,  to make it easier on deep pile carpets.    Anyway the Hoover sooks brilliantly;  there's stuff in the stoor container.    Which bin does that go in I wonder? It is a bonnie, sunny day now, and ...
