Contented boy ....


22nd March 2019 (Friday) .... 09.30     Mmmmm .... it’s overcast,  windy
Overcast morning.
and colder,  but not yet raining;   though it looks like it could rain later, but hopefully not here.  If it does rain I’m going to sort out my sock drawer;  that is a big job, with a lot of socks heading for the bin.

I woke up feeling really refreshed this morning, after a good night’s uninterrupted sleep.... I didn’t wake up in the middle of the night at all.   When I went to bed I felt truly contented;  I think my afternoon with the ‘Colinsburgh Girls’ relaxed me in a way that I haven’t been in a while.    I don’t know why that should be ..... it was like being ‘at home’.    My next Power Point Presentation is going  to be what I think are the best
Heavy sky over the cliffs.
photographs of my main ‘play area’:   that is a triangle, with Kilbrackmont as its apex, with one side going down to the coast at Lower Largo and the other to St Monans.   I’d enjoy doing that and it would be something I’d enjoy looking at when I’m old.

 16.00   We have had one short wet spell, but it has in fact been a ‘no bad’ day .... albeit cool in the wind.    I’ve been browsing photographs;  and ‘saving’ any that I might need, for my ‘when I grow old presentation(s).    I have still to make up my mind;  should I make one big presentation, or a few small ones?    Anyway I’ve made a start, and it’s a project that will keep me occupied on bad weather days:  I certainly have plenty of photographs to choose from.
It looks like the sky has brightened up so I’m going to go for a daunder.

 19.30     I went up to the golf course for the aforementioned ‘daunder’, but I had to
Ferry Road.
keep my eye on the weather because I could see a shower heading our way:  it was cold out there so I shortened the walk.... and got back to Ivy just as the shower reached the ‘Royal Burgh’.  
We’ve had a red sky sunset so we can look forward to a bonnie day tomorrow.... which is a bit of luck because the ‘troops’ are coming down from Auchnagatt; I’m looking forward to that.   That takes care of tomorrow’s ‘plan’.

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...
