Early morning fog ....


22nd February 2019 (Friday) ...09.30     Yesterday afternoon I walked round to Leeann and Martyn’s, taking a wrong turning on the way and walking about twice the distance that I should have;  however I enjoyed the exercise..... and was in plenty of time to enjoy food and goodies at Sully’s party.... and to have a blether.    I very nearly took another wrong turning on the way home, but found the ‘twitten’ I was looking for and was back on track, and well on my way to “No 1”.

This morning we have fairly thick fog but it is warm, and it will be a bonnier day once the fog lifts..... which it is starting to do now.    I’ll go for a wander when the  sun breaks through.


17.30     Michael and ‘JB’ set off for Bournemouth about an hour ago:   they are going to John’s (Emily’s fiancée) stag party.    It’s a case of driving down there today, doing ‘man things’ tomorrow, then c home on Sunday..... ready for work on Monday.    They might have the odd refreshing drink.
The early fog we had cleared away about 13.00, and it has been a lovely afternoon.    I did the ‘round the block’ walk, taking in the local Tesco’s shop in the passing.... where I bought toothpaste .... and, ‘needed like a hole in the heid’ ..... Mr Kipling Almond slices.
I’ve had a quiet afternoon;   actually not really.     Janice brought Darcie back with her (they had been to Eastbourne shopping), and Jeanette arrived so we had a spell of playing with Darcie before I had to abandon that and go up to my room to have ‘50’.   

The sun is beginning to set on what is a quiet Uckfield;   .... which is surprising because there are cars, being driven rapidly (and usually impatiently), all over the place.    Nobody browses their way along the roads here.    I’ve managed to waken up again, so I’ll go downstairs and have a cuppa.

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...
