London Bridge terrorist attack .....
4th
June 2017 (Sunday)
... 09.30 The ‘News’ of another
terrorist attack, this time in London, has me in a state of ‘shock’; my thoughts and prayers, are with
the families of those killed, injured, and
affected by this atrocity. Innocent
people, enjoying ‘time out’ in one of the World’s bonniest cities, suddenly
find themselves in the middle of what must appear like a ‘war zone’... albeit
for a short period of time, ..... but a lifetime for all those caught up in it.
We live in sad, and sometimes downright
evil, times.

Up
here in Elie and Earlsferry, 450 miles away from London, we have a ‘bright and
sunny’ morning, a bonnie morning in fact, .... a morning for getting out and doing
something we enjoy. I am feeling a bit
better, but have a bad cough so it’s another day of staying out of everyone’s
way for me.
21.30 Our ‘bright and sunny’ morning became a
nice, ‘bright and sunny’ day, and the villages have been busy with holiday
makers enjoying it. After breakfast,
and watching the horrific News from London, I went up to Chapel Green and
pottered around on the Chapel Ness rocks ... then went home and had a cuppa in
the Hutte.
Most of the remainder of
the morning was spent watching the News.

When
Jimmy came along, in the afternoon, we
went to Leven to get “Blob and Co” food.
We decided that we’d go down to the Sailing Club (Elie) for a cuppa, and a blether... rather
than go to Sainsbury’s cafe. The
harbour area was busy with sightseers, but with the tide being out there wasn’t
much happening on the water.
In
the evening I went out for a run in the car, the intention being to fill up
with fuel at Colinsburgh, but I forgot to take money with me so that didn’t
happen; I did enjoy the run up to
Kinneuchar, where I discovered that I’d forgotten my wallet; so I went back
to ‘Ivy’ via Balbuthie Loan.

The
weather forecast for the next couple of days is not ‘bright and sunny’.... it’s
windy and wet, especially on Tuesday. I’m
hoping to be able to be fit enough to attend a meeting tomorrow morning; but won’t go if I’m coughing and spluttering.
