Pittenweem Re-cycling ....


8th June 2018 (Friday) ....   I think I’ll go to Leven this morning because the
East end of Earlsferry High Street - pre 1947.
weather is overcast and dour looking:  however it should brighten up by the time I get back.
I have just seen some photographs, taken by a friend of mine,  of the ‘display’ that the workmen had at Pittenweem Re-Cycling Depot:  I write ‘had’ because they (the workmen) have been ordered to remove it;  presumably by some ‘Job’s Worth’ within Fife Council.   To me this is vandalism. 


20.00    In the first part of the morning I did go to Leven, and for a wee bit of shopping retail therapy.    By the time I got back to Ivy, and put the messages away, the sun was breaking through..... so I went up to Elie for the paper.... and had a coffee in Harbour House with ‘the Troops’.    Myra was saying that it’s only four weeks today that we go off to Cornwall!  

I

did some weeding after lunch, and ironed the washing that I’d done in the morning.    By this time it was ‘hot’ in Ivy garden so I went in to the Hutte and had my siesta.   
I'd bought a ‘Lamb Moussaka’ ready meal when in Leven, and had that for dinner:   and that was a new taste for me.    Welll... no it wasn’t a ‘new’ taste, because it tasted like lasagna, and I’ve had loads of that.    It was tasty enough but it didn’t seem to be overloaded with lamb.

Regarding the Pittenweem Re-Cycling Depot, and their having to remove the display.  I have emailed Fife Council to ask why this was done.    As far as I am concerned the ‘display’ added to the re-cycling experience at Pittenweem,.... and might even have encouraged re-cycling.    Apart from the acknowledgement  e-mail that came ‘in’ immediately, I don’t suppose I’ll hear any more on the subject.   However I like writing
Present day Earlsferry High Street with the old cottages 'ghosted' in.
e-mails, and might enjoy communicating with Fife Council re this subject. ... and, it will give me something to do.

The next couple of days are forecast to be less breezy, so, theoretically, it should feel warmer.    I’ll get up early tomorrow morning and have a walk on the beach;  then do some more weeding.   The ‘broon’ bucket is empty.

6th October 2024 (Sunday)    "Happy Golden Wedding Anniversary"  to Brian and Moira". 09.00 .... All the Fife Weather cams are showing overcast skies.   The Anstruther cam looks the bleakest!..... the Lochgelly the least bleak.  The Easterly breeze has brought the weather in from the North Sea.... and  'sunny spells' are not mentioned in the weather forecast, but ... sometimes the sky looks promising!   It's a good day to be inside.  Luckily I, (and all the other guests), are celebrating Brian and Moira's Golden Wedding Anniversary in the Lindsay Room at Kinneuchar Castle. 10.30     It's still raining, but the sky looks promising now and again;  the sun might break though in the afternoon.  I had a walk round the patio in the light rain; very refreshing.    I'm having morrrrrrrrrrrning coffee before I start to get organised for Kinneuchar Castle. 20.30    We had a really pleasant family and f...

16th August 2024 (Friday)  08.30 ...It's a lovely morning but a layer of thin cloud is taking the Jackie. edge off the temperature so we have a chilly start to the day;  hopefully the sun will burn off the cloud to give us a sunny and warm(er) day soon.    The Auchnagatt 'troops' are expected to arrive about 10.30:  and I am organised .... and looking forward to seeing Jackie, Hazel, Catriona and Iain in one photograph.... a rare occurrence nowadays!  20.30 .... I got the photograph that I wanted... all four (soon to be five) of the Lawrie Family of 'Backhill of Inkhorn' (Auchnagatt) in one place!   It has been a most enjoyable day.  We had lunch at the very popular Cupar Garden Centre Restaurant (it was busy) followed by a browse round the garden centre:  the 'troops' did proper browsing:  I had quick browse followed by a catnap in the car.   The middle of the afternoon is my siesta time; and especially so after a good l...

6th August 2024 (Tuesday)    10.30 .... it's a beautiful morning, with a nice fresh breeze.... if only I Aldershot 1958. could go out on the bike!   Anyway... forget dreamin';  today is my appointment with the Consultant, at Queen Margaret Hospital (Dunfermline);.... and I'm hoping to find out what the 'plan' is.   Michael and Janice are out in the car.... shopping.   They should be back in about an hour or so.    I've tidied up the kitchen and will now have a cuppa while watching some of the action from Paris.  22.00    This is more like summer.... in fact I could get to like this weather.      Michael and Janice went up to Cupar in the morning, while I got myself organized  for the Queen Margaret appointment.   Michael and Janice arrived back with lunch, Fisher and Donaldson macaroni pies, with FD's for sweet.   We set off for Dunfermline in plenty of time and arrived with t...
