Interesting foggy morning ....

26th September 2017 (Tuesday) .... 08.30    With fog blowing in from the North Sea, on a Southeast wind, it’s rather gloomy just now....  but ‘sunny spells later’, are mentioned in the weather forecast.    At least it isn’t raining... and it is warm,

Sunrise time at Elie this morning.

considering the wind direction.   I went down to the beach to see the sunrise ... and didn’t.    However there were interesting ‘fog blowing in’ photos to be had.    I now have them.    Orf to have breakfast ... and another cuppa.  

 22.30     This has been a quieter kind of day for me ....  especially after the hilarity of yesterday.   Jimmy and I visited ‘Laurie’ (Lawrence Anderson) in the Rehab Unit at St Andrews... and were pleasantly surprised to find him chatty, and looking forward to food.   Today was the first day he’s felt like he wanted to eat for a while.    Hopefully he’ll get out soon.    We also went to Morrison’s and bought a few bits and pieces.... including grapes for the ‘patient’.    We didn’t get lost in the lift this time:  we had company going ‘up’, and coming ‘down’... and one of them pressed the buttons!   Jim was telling us that the numbering system of ‘1’ being the

Earlsferry beach ... with Elaine walking her dog.

ground floor, instead of ‘G’, is the American way.

We’ve had a fair amount of ‘overcast’ today...i.e.  fog, .... with spells of sunshine, now and again, in the afternoon.    Jim and Jimmy have just gone orf home, and its foggy tonight.    Al least this has been a dry day .... i.e. no rain.

I went down to the beach after I got back from St Andrews.... there was stiff breeze from the Southeast, so it was rather cool.    There was a lot of ‘scattered light’ about which made things interesting.    I got a good photo of Elaine walking her dog along the beach... photographs are always far better with ‘action’ in them.

Jim and Jimmy came along in the evening and the subjects we discussed tonight were

The Ferry bents.

many .... they included, National Service, pitch and toss as played by the miners, lifts, Transocean Prospect (she is off Lisbon), and the Colinsburgh Lite Lunch which is tomorrow.

The weather for tomorrow is going to be much the same as what we had today;  our problem is the wind being from the sea, bring in the cloud/fog.    There should be ‘bright spells’ now and again.
