Christian Aid Coffee Morning ....
26th
May 2018 (Saturday)
.... 08.30    There’s a different ‘air’
about today; 
the sky is mostly overcast,
and the wind, which is brisk,  and from
the ENE, is warm(er) because the air originates over Africa.   I still don’t like the East wind... but a
warm East wind feels better than a cold one.  
It could be a nice enough day, albeit windy.... but nae 'heat wave' here.    I’m
taking advantage of the drying wind, with a washing going through the machine.

After
breakfast I’ll get the bike out and ‘point myself’ towards the Coffee Morning.
20.00   We had an excellent Coffee Morning, with q
few new faces:  the ‘new faces’ would be
visitors here for the holiday weekend.   
I was along there in plenty time for the baking stall, and bought a mix
of ‘goodies’, including a Ginger Bread.  
There was a book stall with a really good choice of books, so I bought
three (new authors for me) for bedtime reading.   Oh...  I won a prize in the raffle;  a personal home organiser.    I will use it.... organising is good.

It
has been a bonnie day, and the villages are reasonably busy, though I have seen
them busier.    There’s a young family
across the way, and they went down to the beach in the afternoon ...  carrying windshields;  you need them on the beach, especially an East
wind.     There were ‘white horses’ on
the water and that indicates a F4 wind.  
Yes they’d need the windshields.  
I haven’t been on the beach at all today.
The
weather forecast is ‘good’ for the next few days;  ‘good’ that is apart from the
wind direction.   Alas
the East wind is forecast to be with us for most of the next week.

No
‘plan’ for tomorrow.   The kirk is at
Kinneuchar so I might bike up there, depending on how I feel.   I’ve been a degree or so under for the past
couple of days, and have been confining myself to pottering around the garden
mostly, and having early nights in bed.
