Oh dear ... NE wind
10th
April 2018 (Tuesday)
.... 08.30 Mmmmmmm .... I’d been
looking
forward to going out to play this morning, but there’s a brisk North-easterly
wind, its overcast, and it is cold.... and sometimes there are spells of Scotch
mist.... not a morning for biking.
Actually I might bike up to buy a paper later, being that I went up in
the car earlier, only to find I didn’t have money in my pocket .... gain.. I
nearly forgot .... there’s a good chance of light rain in the afternoon. Sunny spells? .... ... no sunny spells.
The good news is
that the East winds are forecast to veer to the West in about six days; and, I am feeling playful.
Elie - yesterday. |
22.30 I have had a sedentary kind of day .....
mostly in front of the computer; and I
did the ironing. My bike was never out: it started to rain at 11.00, and it has been
raining, at varying intensity, ever since, so any thought of biking was quickly
a
bandoned. I did take the car up for the
paper, and had a coffee in Harbour House with Myra, Jim and Geoff.

Yesterday
I was sitting in The Hutte watching Blob and Blobette going through a
complicated mating ritual; it all ended when
Blob found that his feet were cold, and
jumped on top of Blobette to warm them.
I didn’t see either of them today.... but, in this kind of weather I rarely
go out to The Hutte.
Silverburn
House, near Leven, is ‘no more’; having
been destroyed by fire today. It was
a bonnie house, and Maggie and I used to exhibit at Craft Fairs in it. Over the past few years it has fallen into
a dilapidated state; probably due to
lack of funding.

Jim
and I spent our evening chatting about the cinemas that once operated in
Kirkcaldy, Leven, and Methil: I suppose
those were the ‘good old days’ of our generation. Having said that, I’m enjoying living in
the present .... if only we could have a
spell of decent weather.
The
weather is not forecast to be much better tomorrow; the wind is still going to be Easterly, bringing
stuff in from the North Sea, so it’s going to be overcast, with spells of Scotch Mist probably. The Friendship Lunch will brighten up the
middle part of ‘the day’
