Quiet, 'romantic' sort of morning ....
8th
October 2017 (Sunday) 09.30 It’s a pleasant morning; it is overcast but the wind has dropped to
F2-3, and the sun should break through by
midday .... it looks like being
another bonnie afternoon.
Sunrise time. |
I’ve
been out for a decent walk; I went down
to get the sunrise but the clouds were too far over the horizon. I’m ready for ‘the kirk’; I was wondering about the 11.00 start... I
thought it would mean me having to curtail my morning activities, but not this
morning. I might fall asleep in the
church...! Have a lovely Sunday.... I’m
going to have breakfast.
19.30 The ‘bonnie afternoon’ lasted as long as a snowball in the Sahara... ..
the sky clouded over about 14.00, and has been so ever since.... but has
remained dry. A whole day of daylight
hours without rain ... that’s unusual. Luckily I’d had a good
walk in the early
morning, so didn’t go out again in the afternoon; with the sky clouding over the temperature
dropped.... however it seems to have risen in the last couple of hours.
Choir practice. |
Jimmy
enjoyed the service at Kinneuchar.... we were up there in plenty of time and enjoyed
a pre-service cuppa... and chat. There was a good turnout, and the hymn singing
was a pleasure to listen too; I don’t/can’t
sing, but I enjoy listening to those who can.
The 11.00 o’clock service doesn’t stop me going out early, but I did
feel drowsy in the kirk; that said, we
were sitting in a pew with a central heating pipe for a foot rest!
In
the afternoon I ‘played’ with the morning’s photographs... and fell sound
asleep in
front of the tele for 45 minutes.
I was late in bed last night because I watched a fact based film, “Unbroken”,
that didn’t end until 23.40. It will be an early night in bed for ‘the
boy’ tonight.... unless I find another film to watch.
Maggie's Uncle Jimmy ...he will be 91 this month. |
It’s
another ‘there could be sunny spells’ forecast for tomorrow... but it is going
to be warmer; I’ll have a peek out at
06.00 to see if we look like having a bonnie sunrise. Otherwise I have ‘nae plan’ for tomorrow ...
I’ll make a ‘plan’ after a good night’s sleep!
