Grey day ......
15th
April 2016 (Friday) 09.00
Our weather is mixed up right enough;
yesterday we had a bonnie sunny day, today it’s overcast, but dry. Having said that, if every second day was
sunny, I wouldn’t complain..... half the year would be
‘sunlit’.

‘Nae
plan’ this morning apart from go for a walk, and tidy up some of the
garden. The bowling green ‘opens’
tomorrow.... at least I’ll be able to get down to deliver the bowl this year; the only problem are my hands , which are
‘bothered’ with arthritis. This is not
‘handy’ ... especially when bowling!
22.00 Myra, Jim and I went to Harbour House for
morning coffee.... this was after we’d been at the bowling green to play four
‘ends’ to see if we could actually deliver a bowl!. I’m not sure how my hand will cope, but I
did get the bowls ‘up’ the green, though not very accurately. We’ll make our minds up tomorrow. Ian and Joyce, joined Myra and Jim, in
Harbour House so I left them
chatting.... and set orf walking, thinking that Jimmy would be ready for his
morning cuppa at Ivy. I met Jimmy
coming from The
Ferry (in his car): so I
jumped into the car, and we went back to Ivy for the aforementioned cuppa.

The
weather turned wet after lunch;
upsetting my ‘plan’ to walk out to west Bay. Instead I booked ‘Sooper Buggy’ in for
‘her’ MOT (Thursday), then ‘fired her up’ and went along to Leven to get some
messages ... a good way to pass a wet afternoon. Although he weather has been of the dull,
and wet at times, kind, we have had a lovely evening, which suggests we might
have nice weather, ‘bright, sunny and cool’ tomorrow. The wind is from the north, hence the ‘cool’.
I’ve
been checking the BGS (British Geological Survey) website to find out about UK
earthquake activity. There’s plenty of
it (earthquake activity), though most of it is in the ‘weak’ category: we had a 1.7 (weak) one in the Solway Firth
area on Wednesday,.... which would pass
unnoticed, by folks ‘stood staunin’ on the epicentre!

We
have a Coffee Morning tomorrow in the Church Hall at 10.00 .... I must remember
to phone Jimmy and remind him.
