Frisky sort of morning ....
12th
June 2017 (Monday)
.... 08.30 We have a ‘bright and
breezy’ start to Monday .... the wind, from the West, is forecast to become
even friskier by lunch time
.... with the threat of some showers later; a bonnie morning. I will ‘do’ the Chapel Green walk after I
have my cuppa: the ‘Chapel Green’ walk
is the walk we used when walking our dogs Shep, Morag, and Bonnie, so it is the ‘natural’ walk for me of a
morning.... and a nice distance. I
need to go to Sainsbury’s sometime today;
I’ll see if Jimmy wants to go... we could have a cuppa in the Cafe.

21.30 Although breezy, we have had a bonnie day,
with plenty of sunny spells, and no showers... at least I can’t remember
rain.... today i.e. In Bonnie Scotland
we get our share of rain; in fact it
(water) could become one of our main exports when the South runs out... which
they will do when they build all those houses that they want to build down
there!

Jimmy
and I did go to Sainsbury’s, Leven, where I bought ‘flaky’ pastry; I wanted to make a pie out of the remains of
the beef casserole that I made yesterday.
The aforementioned pie has been ‘made’ and eaten; and it was very tasty. I should have bought mincemeat to make some
mince pies, (as in Christmas – 195 days
to go), because I have pastry needing to be made into flaky mince pies! Flaky mince pies .... Mmmmm.... “Puku”
(bless his fatness skinniness) likes flaky mince pies!
Most
of my afternoon was spent ‘sookin’ Kurol’s and watching the ‘News’. Unfortunately even Kurol’s wouldn’t cure the
mess that we are in since the General Election. I almost feel sorry for Mrs May, who has
been “hung on a shooglie peg” by her ‘Troops’. Not only is she on “a shooglie peg” but she
has to make it look, and
sound, like she’s ‘The Boss’ .... which she most certainly
is not. That’s politics.

With
Monday with a ‘romantic’ evening, albeit breezy, I went for a walk up to the ‘Pony
Field’ and across the golf course: then
down to ‘Nana’s Seat’ on the bents, in front of St Margaret’s. From the quarry hill I’d noticed a cruise
ship leaving the Firth and wanted to get a photo of ‘her’.... the “Rotterdam”.
