Overcast but dry .....
11th
April 2017 (Tuesday)
.... 08.30 Mmmmm .... ... it’s
overcast and breezy, with the chance of light rain now and again by the look of
it, but it may
brighten up by midday.
I haven’t got a plan for today;
if it stays dry I’ll go out to the garden and do some more tidying
up.... there’s plenty to do out there.
fact the President Trump
has found his ‘toys’.... and thought about stockpiling some food.

18.30 It has been windy, and cold, all day. Jimmy
gave me a run along to Elie so that I could post a letter at the main post box, and I walked
home, via the beach; the beach was not
the place to be. I met Jim and Myra
out for a romantic stroll,..... they
were up on the high Street sheltered from the wind. Jim told me that he had been tired after our
day out at Loch of the Lowes.... that made two of us.

I
had an appointment at the surgery this morning (blood test) and I drove along
in ‘Sooper Buggy’ rather than bike.... it was so windy. The thought of biking home in that wind, was
too much; I felt a weakness coming on. After
the blood test I went round to Jimmy’s and took him for a run in the Fiesta....
all of five metres, the distance I’d reversed it down the driveway. We put a CD in the player thing, someone
called Glen Campbell,.... jings that made a lot of noise. We found the Volume control. That was the excitement for the
morning. I drove back to Ivy, Jimmy
went up to Chapel Green, and dropped in for a cuppa on the way home. We discussed the

Jimmy
went off home for lunch; I went to
Leven and did a ‘shopping’ in Sainsbury’s... where I bought another box of
porridge oats, this makes two I have in ‘reserve’; a sort of mini stockpile. I have been planning on having a baking ‘sesh; I bought the flour, eggs etc then found an
aisle with much beautiful ‘rubbage’. I
bought some. The ‘Troops’ Jim and
Jimmy will devour some of it this evening!
I bought real food too! The
baking I’ll do probably tomorrow morning if it’s still windy and cold.
22.00 Jim and Jimmy are off home after another
evening of reminiscing and planning. Tomorrow
we have the Friendship Lunch in the Kirk Hall so lunch is taken care of. It is forecast to be windier, (therefore cold),
but brighter, tomorrow.... however I’ll bike along to the “Lunch”.
