My goodness ...what a gorgeous morrrrning


25th June 2019 (Tuesday)       09.00 ......The villages are looking so
Lovely morning ... and warm.
extraordinarily bonnie this morning that it took me an hour and a half to scuttle (slowly) round them, taking 178 photographs on the way.    We have a lovely, peaceful morning, with an already warm sun:  the makings of a gorgeous day.
I’ve just remembered that I have a car somewhere;  I’d better turn its wheels sometime today.... even a few metres will do.

18.00     The car feels ‘loved’ again;   I took it to the ‘Pav’ for morning coffee.    No no no... that’s not iggzactly  right:   the car didn’t get the morning coffee;  I did, with Myra and Geoff.   I travelled along to the ‘Pav’ in the car.    That’s better;  it almost makes sense.    Having sorted that oot, what other stuff did I do today?

I had planned to go to Leven and visit Jim this afternoon, but I then thought I’ll do that tomorrow, and have my haircut when in Leven (in the morning)..   The lassie that cuts my hair works on a Thursday and Friday.    So that’s the Thursday plan :  it’s the
The harbour.
Colinsburgh ‘Lite Bite’ Lunch so I need to be back in time for that.    That reminds me:   what am I going to have for food tonight?    This calls for a quick browse of the freezer drawers!   Must go .... ever so slight ‘flap’ on.    Hungry boy.

Quiet morning ....

7th May 2025 (Wednesday)    08.15 .... "Sunny intervals with a light breeze" is today's weather forecast for.... KY9, Ellon, Uckfield (Sussex) and London:  it's going to be a bonnie day all over the UK.  The breeze is from the Easterly direction so the East coast will be cooler; but it will be warm sheltered from the breeze.   It's a nice, peaceful kind of morning at Elie and Earlsferry:  the sky is a mix of fluffy clouds and blue bits, and the temperature is 11.6C just now.   3.3C was the minimum overnight.  20.30     I'd been reading about the cyber attack on M & S, Harrods and the Co-op... so, feeling inquisitive, for my morning 'mission' I decided to go to The Store (Ainster) and see how the 'attack' was affecting our local 'Store'.   The first thing I noticed was the car park wasn't as busy as normal and all the Disabled spaces were empty.  Inside the store,  the empty vegetable and fruit...

3rd October 2025 (Friday)     10.30 .... It's a quiet morning; after a lot of overnight rain this is the calm before the storm.... 'Storm Amy', that is going to bring strong winds and heavy rain, this afternoon and Saturday.  It could be a good drying morning!   Anyway all is still at the moment.   I'm going to see if I can rescue a few of the apples that are still attached to the tree.    Actually I think I'll have morning coffee first. 04 12.30    We had a power cut  (45 minutes) last night ,so I unplugged the computer.    We got the torches and candles out, chatted for a while then went to bed.

Windy and wet .....

4th August 2025 (Monday)    08.45 ....  It's breezy with light rain just now;  but the rain is going to move away and the wind freshen to 'gale', with sunny intervals and squally showers, by midday.   There could interesting clouds, and stormy seas.    I won't be going out on the bike!    High tide is at 11.20;  there will be an abundance of fresh air on the beach today.  11.00  The wind is freshening, from the SW, as can be seen in the photo of the 'Glenfuir' flags (Swiss, USA and Jersey).    Sunny intervals are starting to come over, so it's a bonnie enough day now, albeit breezy:  F5 - 6 with stronger gusts now and again. 19.30  It has certainly been a wild old day, but the wind is moderating, and tomorrow will be much quieter.   It was F8 - 9 at times out on the bay.   Which is why HMS Iron Duke (Type 23 frigate) is sheltering off Elie and Earlsferry.      HMS Iro...
