Bright, breezy and very cold .....
21st
March 2017 (Tuesday)
.... 08.30 “Happy Birthday Iain” .... who will be .... what? How
old? That cannae be; 52 ..? Mmmmm .... does this mean that I am a tad
older than I’ve been admitting too?
Have a great day ..... eat cake ‘n stuff!
We
have a bright, breezy, and cold morning..... not a morning for ladder
work. That said ... I remember working
over at Livingstone one hard winter, and we did ‘ladder
work’ in the snow ....
yon was a miserable place to be. I’ve never been back to Livingstone!

| Maggie's name on the Memorial Stone at Elie Kirk. |
12.00 I got
an e-mail from Olive this morning, telling me that Maggie’s name had been
inscribed on the Memorial stone at Elie;
this made me decide to walk along to the kirk, to see, and take a picture,
of the inscription. We have had a few blustery showers this morning but I was
lucky and managed to get ‘there and back’ dry. At
Telfer’s Wynd I went down to the beach
and walked along to The Breakwater ... that cleared away the cobwebs. .... from the Breakwater I scampered back up to the
relatively ‘sheltered’ Bank street! There’s a heavy shower battering it’s way
over just now ....we’re getting rain;
some places in the ‘central Belt have been getting snow, and I noticed
snow on the Pentland Hills behind Edinburgh, and along the Lammermuirs. Yes we do have a touch of wintry weather
today.

21.00 Jimmy
had an appointment at St Andrews in mid afternoon, so we combined that, with a
shopping browse round Morrison’s Supermarket.
We bought some necessities... for instance, Lemon Doughnuts being were
bound to be a ‘necessity’. On the way
home we drove through a rain/sleet shower so the cauld, wintry weather, looks
like being with us for another 24 hours.

I
have had a look at my set ‘presentation’ for the EKC Guild tomorrow afternoon,
and they seem interesting to me; I hope
they are for the girls, and boys, of the Guild! The ‘zapper’ is working perfectly so I ought
to be able to see my photos on the screen .... as a ‘viewer’ more or less.

be around somewhere.
