July 2017 (Sunday)
.... 11.00 Wellll ... what an
absolute cracker of a morning we’ve had:
I went out on the bike at 07.10, and arrived back in Ivy, at 09.15
 |
| Early morning boat trip. |
....
hungry, but contented. All I did when I was out is ‘do’ the
villages, from Chapel Green to Elie Harbour, taking photos from most of my
favourite ‘spots’ on the way. I’ve had
my breakfast, and had a quick look at the photographs I did take:
I’m happy. Right now, I am going
to make another cuppa, then sort out some photos for the ‘Hutte’ and FB. Enjoy ‘your’ day .... I’m hoping to get
out on the bike in the afternoon again .... it looks like there could be some
interesting clouds.

20.30 The ‘interesting clouds’ turned into rain
showers, and they s were wetting enough to stop me from going out on the bike
this afternoon; that said they, the
showers, haven’t been that many, nor heavy,... just annoying. Mind
you, after the soaking I got last night you’d think a few showers wouldn’t
bother me! Anyway I got loads of photos down at the
harbour this morning; enough to keep me
happy for a day or two. Jimmy went
down to the Sailing Club at lunch time, but said that it was ‘quiet’... I think
he just missed Gordon and Bruce who had been out sailing.... so he ended up
going to Leven to do some shopping.
With
the weather being ‘iffy’ I went on to the computer and found out that “Albatross”
 |
| Elie Bay. |
(now without oil
rig) is moored up in Corpus Christi harbour, presumably awaiting instructions
as to what ‘her’ next mission will be .... and where it will be. “HMS Queen Elizabeth” continues to bumble
around the Cromarty Firth testing ‘stuff’;
I’m still hoping that she will
come back to the Firth of Forth, so that I can get a decent photo of her.
It
looks like tomorrow morning is going to be another quiet one, with ‘nae wind’, so
I’ll get out on the bike early again, and do my ‘end to end’ bumble along the
villages. Once again showers are
forecast from around midday.
