St Patrick's Day
17th
March (Saturday- “St Patrick’s Day”) Enjoy St Patrick’s Day celebrations
wherever you are; hopefully your weather
will be ‘bright, sunny and
warm’ on this happy day.
Bright afternoon.... but cold..... |
08.30 We do not have ‘bright, sunny and warm’
in Bonnie Scotland; at least not in our
bit of this lovely country. Our
weather is ‘windy and grey, with, intermittent, snow showers’ .... undeniably wintry. Oh ... and it’s cold! Ivy hatches might not be un-battened
today! As for me .... I feel
frolicsome,.... but, this ‘boy’ is not
going to be frolicking far today; and,
right now, at this very moment ... only as far as the kitchen to make myself a
mug o’ coffee! Enjoy your day.... and
stay cosy.
Ireland v Scotland in
the Six Nations today.... that will keep me cosy, in the early part of the afternoon....... after a dull morning. |
The
wind is still from the East, and bringing in big rolling waves with it, so he
bay has been rough again. The wind is
to be from the East again tomorrow, but less strong. It was overcast, and the tide out, when I
was on the beach in the morning, by afternoon we were having long sunny spells;
it was cold both times,... but bearable
in the afternoon sunshine.
The
villages are busy this weekend; as they
are most weekends. Both times I was
on
the beach there were dog walkers out.... but no joggers. Joggers add a bit of colour as well as
life to a photo; they, joggers, are usually wearing luminous, brightly coloured clothing.
This afternoon. |
Tomorrow
I intend getting ‘up and out’ early; the
plan being to get back to Ivy in time to go to the kirk at 11.00. Of course if it is too cold in the wind I
might not go ‘out’ .... well.... if I do go out it won’t be for long. Frost is forecast for tonight and tomorrow
morning.
