Nice morning ... but cooler than of late
24th
October 2016 (Monday)
.... 09.30 This is more like it .... there’s a mostly,
blue sky this morning; however there
are big shower clouds here and there,
and the, light, wind is from the
Northeast and therefore cool; but a
bonnie start to the day. I have a
washing going through the machine so I don’t want rain.

I
went down to the harbour (in the car) to watch the sunrise over the lighthouse; it didn’t
turn out to be “an all over the sky” sunrise, but it was bonnie
nonetheless. It was cold down at the
harbour .... then again, it always is.
21.30 There were three sets of temporary traffic
lights between ‘The Royal Burgh’ and Leven this morning: Jimmy and I went to Leven to get some stuff
at Sainsbury’s, and had to wait at all three sets. We really just wanted a run to somewhere,
and I
wanted Cranberry Juice to treat the urine infection. At
the Doctor’s this afternoon I discovered that I never had an infection; the sample was clear. It’s a good job I like Cranberry juice. Strange
thing is; the pills must have sorted
something.... because I feel ‘better’.

This
has been a ‘lazy’ sort of afternoon for me... all I did was L-Mail ‘M’ (No
0932) then get ready to go to the Surgery.
The weather hasn’t been exciting... just a typical late autumn day; showery with sunny spells and cool. It is going to become warmer in the middle
of the week, and windier from the West.
The
villages are still busy with holiday makers;
which is good because it shortens the time that Earlsferry is a ghost
village, .... and, any addition to the ‘tourist season’ must also be good for
the village shops.
I
don’t have a ‘plan’ for tomorrow.
Tomorrow is Jimmy’s birthday so I might go along
to the Windmill where
Donald has organised ‘cake’ and ‘Happy Birthday’ celebrations so that Chris can
join in. We’ll get her started singing
.... after that there’s nae stopping’ her. In fact it’s sometimes harder to stop the
Residents singing, than it is to get them started.

: all three taken down at Elie Harbour at sunrise time this morning. I might go down to the Harbour tomorrow
morning but it depends on the weather.... I’m actually fancying a ‘sleep in’!
