Overcast with light rain .....
15th
May 2017 (Monday)
.... 09.30 I’m definitely feeling more energetic this morning... I’ve been up
the ladder, that was a waste o’ time, because the bit of
rhone I wanted to
clean out had water lying in it. The water problem will go when I get the
new brackets fitted. At that time (07.3) the sky was grey but it wasn’t raining. By the time I put the ladder away and got
the camera out to go down to the beach it was .... raining i.e. It was only light rain so continued with
the ‘plan’ and went down to the beach, where
I enjoyed a quiet half hour, albeit a damp one. It
looks like the rain is going to be with us for a while so the ‘plan’ is to work
on the computer: I’m going ‘back up’ photos
onto DVD’s. ... that will be a triple ‘back up’.

For most of the day our weather could
be classed as dreich; however, the rain did stop about mid afternoon; having said that, I got caught in a shower
when I was biking home from Elie in the afternoon.... so it wisnae ‘bright and sunny’. It did turn ‘bright ,and nearly sunny’ at
18.00, and we ended the day with a reasonable
evening.

I
went down to the harbour on the bike, and had a walk out on the harbour beach
when the rain stopped; or ‘intermittently’
stopped, because there were spits band spots when I was on the beach.... and I
got caught in the aforementioned shower on the way home. As I’ve already mentioned the best of the
weather was in the evening and that wasn’t “iggzactly” exciting. The weather forecast for tomorrow isn’t good
.... overcast with rain the chance of early rain.
My
task for today was backing up my photos onto DVD’s as a third backup. I’ll need to go online and order some more
DVD’s... I have a lot of photos. I
also have external hard drives, I use for ‘backup’ so I’m well enough
covered. In the past two weeks I’ve
had suspicious e-mails... one purporting to be from Microsoft, and the other from
BT business: I dumped them both. My security is automatically updated, which
is what the Microsoft e-mail was ‘about’, and I’m not with BT business. That said it
could be easy to be ‘conned’
into opening one of those of e-mails;
they look authentic at first glance.

I’m
feeling tired tonight... probably the weather, because I haven’t done much in
the way of exercise today. I did watch
some television today and saw our lovely
Theresa telling us how her Party is going to protect worker’s rights, build Council
Houses. ... and help ‘Cathy’ to live on £100 a month. I’m hoping the weather is better tomorrow!
