Light frost ....
29th
October 2018 (Monday)
.... 07.30 We have a lovely, crisp morning
with a light
frost; as was forecast. The air should quickly warm up once the sun
climbs above the clouds. The beach was
busy, with dog walkers this morning .....no joggers! Sunrise was obscured by low cloud: I knew this was going to be the case, having
browsed the Fife Weather cams. The Aberdour
camera shows what’s happening along the East horizon.

I
don’t need to go to Leven for a wee while yet .... yes .... I’ll have another
cuppa.
19.30 It has been a beautiful, and busy day . The car has been serviced; it has to go in on Wednesday to get two tyres replaced, and
something else done. I’ll take it in
first thing on Wednesday and hope to have it back before the ‘Lite Bite Lunch’
at Colinsburgh. Unfortunately Wednesday
was the only day they could fit it .... the car ...in.

I
went round to Janet’s after leaving the car at the garage, had a cuppa, caught
up with her ‘news,.... and even remembered to leave a memory stick with the family
photographs on it: we then both walked
(at my speed) down to Leven; I went to
Sainsbury’s... Janet was going to the High Street. I had sandwiches in Sainsbury’s. Angela
and Graham were just finishing their coffee so I company for a few minutes....
and an interesting chat.
When
I got the car from the garage I went round to Janet’s to pick up an Aran jersey
that Janet had repaired. There was a
small hole where I’d caught it I’d caught it on a door handle. I was back home by 13.30. I’d intended washing said jersey when I got
home, but we had some heavy showers bumbling their way over by then. I’ll wash it first thing in the morning and
hope that any showers that come our way tomorrow are later in the
afternoon. I’ll be around Ivy most of
the day.
When
I arrived back at Ivy (from Leven) I met Jock who was worrying about planting
his tubs. “Jock” I said to Jock; you don’t need to worry.... “get Honor to do
it”.... then gave him a travel sweetie to calm him down! Jock was just a complete ‘bag o’ nerves’: even more so than me!

We’ve
had a busy sky this afternoon, so I went down to the harbour (not the warmest
place to be), followed by a quick trip home, by Balbuthie Loan.... then down to
the beach to catch a few more cloud photographs. I’m a contented boy tonight.... and a tired
one. My knee is not a happy bunny
knee.
