... 09.00 We, who live in the East
Neuk of Fife, have a good, mixed, bundle of weather this morning, but at least
it’s warm! It

was raining when I poked
my head ‘ower the gate’ at 06.00; I
went back to bed and got up at 07.30.... by this time the cloud had broken up and it looked promising; however that changed, and, now, as I type, it’s not raining, but is overcast
and breezy ... with a serious ‘rainy look’ towards the West .... from whence
our weather is coming. I’m not going
back to bed.
21.00 My only sortie ‘out’ today has been to go
up to Elie for the paper.... I haven’t been down to the beach at all today. I did get myself organised for the beach after
lunch, then discovered that, the rain, which had stopped ... had
started again. Being

that I was
in a ‘working’ mood I decided to clean the windows on the inside; I’d do the outsides when the rain went
off. As it happened the rain didn’t
last long so I got both sides, inside and outside, of one of the kitchen
windows done. Luckily, just as I was
beginning to weaken, Linda arrived, and made a mug o’ coffee. We caught up with each other’s news, then
Jimmy dropped in so we got his news too.
Oh
my word .... the ‘boys’ have a busy schedule tomorrow morning; we have Crane Out at the harbour (it starts
before 09.00)... and there’s a Coffee Morning in Earlsferry Town Hall, .... it
starts at 10.00. Having to ‘plan’ for more
than one event per day is

highly stressful.
And, oh dearie me I have windows to clean ... er ... it, would be
a good ‘plan’ for me to get the camera organised tonight! The weather forecast for tomorrow looks
like being much the same as it was today ... minus the rain. What.... no rain? No, that can’t be.
Calumn
(my former apprentice at the ‘Craw’s) phoned today to say that he is back in
the country after much travelling, all over the globe, with his work. I think he’s been on every continent in the
last 12 months. I’m looking forward to
having a good old catch up with him.... and Karen.
