21.00 The weather did stay ‘nice’ all day ....
and my washing dried nae bother; so not
only has it been a bonnie day it has also been a productive and satisfying
one.

Elie Bay this morning |
Today I pruned some kind o’
shrub that Maggie planted; definitely the
prickliest thing I’ve had to prune so far.... pruning an acacia tree came into my mind at
one point. Anyway the bush has been
pruned, and the ‘broon’ is ‘full’. I
might take some ‘garden’ stuff along to the Recycling Depot at Pittenweem later
in the week.
After
lunch, I felt tired and in much need of ‘50’, so I retired to the Hutte and
read a bit of my book before falling asleep for around 20 minutes.
Feeling frisky after the short rest, I made a cuppa, read another bit of
my book, did a wee bit more garden tidying, then decided that I

needed to take some
exercise for the hip muscles. By now
it didn’t feel as cold as it had been earlier, so I got the bike out, and went
up to the Chapel Green where I told Maggie
how busy I’d been; and got ‘instructions’
re getting on with my ‘Spring clean’ ... now that Spring is ‘here’. I biked round to Sea Tangle Road, where I
met Ron and Elinor out for their afternoon walk.... then went up to Grange Road
to take a look at the new houses, before drifting back to Ivy, in time to go
down to the beach for my evening potter around at sunset time. I have had a very busy, pleasing day, and
will be well ready for my ‘book at bedtime’.

First Sand Castle of Easter |
The
weather forecast for tomorrow is ‘excellent’
.... so I might do some ‘gardening’ in the morning. In the afternoon I’m driving Jimmy up to
St Andrews for a check up appointment.
