Summer .....
25th
June 2019 (Monday)
..... 09.00 I’m thinkin’ that summer
is upon
us: we have a lovely, sunny and warm with a light
WNW breeze morning. There were a few holiday
makers enjoying an early stroll along the beach... and three Heron catching
their breakfast. That reminds me; I’d better have my breakfast. I haven’t made my mind up what I’m going to
do today; it’s a bonnie day for getting
some stuff done. Oh .... I have a
washing to hang out.

20.00 Yes .... this is summer weather right
enough: let’s hope it stays with us ....
for a few weeks at least. After ‘morning coffee’ in Harbour House
with the ‘troops’ I went to Leven and got all the things done that I needed
done; including a wee bit of shopping in
Sainsbury’s. It was hot in the
car; and that was with the windows
slightly open. I see that this car has
air conditioning, but I have yet to find out how it works. I suspect it’s more sophisticated than
opening windows.

I’ve
been feeling tired all day, probably after the driving yesterday. I really enjoyed Auchnagatt; a whole weekend without stress. Absolutely magical. However, after a quick ‘50’ in the Hutte in
the afternoon, I did some pruning: there’s
a lot more still to do... and the weeds are making a big move after the recent
rain. Some of the weeds are a perfect
height for detaching from the planet without actually bending down.
Tomorrow
morning I have an appointment at St Andrews Hospital; the result of a recent blood test. This is a morning appointment; they’re usually late in the afternoon. I suppose it depends on when the Consultant
is at St Andrews. Apart
from this
appointment I have nothing ‘planned’.

This
summer weather is forecast to continue for the remainder of the week; the only ‘fly in the ointment’ being the wind
veering towards the East. Will this bring
in haar from the North Sea? I hope not....
I’m beginning to like this weather. Our holiday makers will be making the most of
it. The villages are reasonably
busy. ‘Strangers’ are, in most cases, “new
friends” to talk too.
I
might have a daunder down to the beach after this update; it depends on how tired I’m feeling.... and right now I am tired.
