Nice airy morning ....
27th
October 2018 (Saturday)
.... 09.00 It is cold this morning, but,
because the wind has moderated, there’s less wind chill so it doesn’t feel as
cold as it was yesterday: a nice morning
for walking. It’s also a good morning
for driving to Hayward’s Heath in Sussex, which is where the two people (father
and son), and the dog, in the photograph , are doing today. The
gentleman’s wife is a relation of Mrs Lilburn so has ‘Royal’ blood coursing
through her veins.... she had left the beach before I got round as far as the
Cockstail rocks, so, unluckily, I didn’t meet her. The family come up to ‘The Royal Burgh’ most
years. I had an interesting morning on
the beach; even with ‘sunrise’ being obscured
by low cloud.

19.30 This has been a perfect drying day ....
well it was until later in the afternoon when a heavy shower of rain passed over
us; luckily the sheets I’d washed and
hung out were dry, long before the rain arrived. They have even been ironed... ready to put
away tomorrow.
Today
has been spent... doing a washing, followed
by the already mentioned ironing: and
working on the computer. Of course I
have also played 18 holes of Wii gowf, and two games of ten pin bowling..... no
wonder I’m beginning to feel sleepy. I’d
been up for the paper and coffee in the morning, but couldn’t get down to the
Harbour as someone was making a delivery to the ‘Ship Inn’, and the road was ‘blocked’. I came home.
Tomorrow
we have the Harvest Thanksgiving Service in Kinneuchar Kirk; with ‘lunch’ afterwards. Guess who is going to the kirk! I
hope you don’t think I’m
going to the kirk just for the food; I’ll reclaim my pew too! We don’t have our ‘own’ Minister yet, but
are in the process of getting one: shared
with St Monans.

I
see on the News that there has been another ‘shooting’ in the USA: I guess it’s not surprising when you consider
the number of guns, and the Laws
governing ownership of said weapons, in the country. My thoughts are with the families who have,
sadly, been caught up in this latest atrocity.
When will it stop?
