Oh my word ... another cracker of a morning


4th July 2018 (Wednesday) ....happy Independence Day to all my
Perfect morning.
American friends, wherever you may be;   enjoy ‘Your’ Day.
We have another absolutely cracker of a morning here;  sunny and warm, with only a light breeze .... it could be hot by midday.   When I set out for my morning walk I intended going up to the Pony Field and across to the third tee;  however, with it being a bonnie morning I ended up going across the golf course to West Bay, then round Chapel Green and home by the beach.   As long as there are plenty seats to have short breaks on I can cover a fair distance... albeit painfully.    
I was lucky again this morning, with two ‘live’ photos;  one of a lady walking out on Sea Tangle road to West Bay, and another of a lady going for a swim, with her two dogs.    (On both occasions I asked the girls if it would be Okay to take their photos).  
Kincraig cliffs from the 15th fairway..
Strangely enough there are very few men walking dogs in the morning.;  though I did see a pair of male joggers in the distance.
I’m a happy bunny this morning.... all I need to do now is get the bike out to go up for the papers.    And coffee in harbour House. 
 

20.30     After a busy day I am well ready for my bed;  but not just yet.    Most of the morning was spent walking, then biking up to Elie ... and having coffee in Harbour House with Geoff... and Laura.    Myra and Jim were otherwise engaged today.
It was hot in Ivy garden in the afternoon, 25c at one time, so I did ‘ousework .... and ironed yesterday’s washing;   anything to be out of the heat.   That said, this has been a good sequence of ‘drying days’.... and it’s a long time since we had that.    I get up in the morning wondering what I can put into the washing machine!    However the sky
Grangehill Road.
has clouded over during the evening time, and the forecast is for it to be cloudier tomorrow .... but warm.

We don’t have the ‘Drop in Cafe’ tomorrow afternoon;   it will have to be Ivy coffee .... or .... I could bike up to Harbour House.    I’ll see what I am doing .... and how hot it is.

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 friends gathering to celebrate Brian and Moira's Gol

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 lunch!   And it was a really good lun

18th April 2024 (Thursday)    08.00 .... The Fife Weather cams are all showing an overcast sky:  rain hasn't reached Fife so far, but is expected to arrive by mid morrrrrrrning...."light rain and a fresh Westerly breeze" being the forecast until later in the afternoon;  but we're going to end the day with a bonnie evening.  Hmmmmm .... I don't think I'll be painting any bits of the shed today; and that was my project to take my mind off the car.   Computer stuff it will have to be:  I'm actually in a writing mood so this might not be a wasted day. 09.00   Forget the heap oops... car (it's in the 'bad car' corner);  I'm excited because the workmen are here to begin work on the patio. They arrived a wee while ago;  unfortunately spits and spots o' rain arrived at the same time and, if  the rain is heavy and prolonged they won't be able to do much.   Showers are OK but not prolonged rain.  Must 'go' got to have another cuppa
