Quiet morning ....
15th
June 2019 (Saturday)
.... 07.00 We have an “mostly overcast
with a
moderate breeze from the East” beginning to the day; in fact the sun is trying hard to burn the
cloud back, so we could have sunny spells in a wee while. It’s a nice morning for doing things morning for doing things .... painting flagpoles for instance.
Misty morning .... but nice. |
I should also get out on the bike sometime today.
09.30 The auld villages are looking good.... and
it’s a nice day to come and admire them.
I know this because that is what I did an hour ago; went out on the bike to circumnavigate, and
admire, the Centre of the Universe. The next mission (after breakfast) will be
working .... weeding etc. I don’t
think rain/showers are mentioned in the ‘KY9’ forecast for today so I might go
out on the bike in the afternoon.
I’m
having a ‘lit bite’ lunch before I attack the work ... I might even have ‘50’. I have been on the go since just before
06.00.... and I do feel drowsy. Yes I
think ‘50’ is called for... my eyelids keep going into sleep mode.
12.30 Myra phoned to remind me that we had a
coffee morning in the kirk hall.... so that is where I spent the morning. Drinking tea and chatting. Oh and I won one of the raffle prizes ....
a box of After Dinner mints. This was
the annual Episcopal Church ‘CM’. ... sometimes known as ‘Brenda’s Coffee
Morning’.
Shower cloud heading our way. |
17.00 My
eyelids have had a good hours rest and are now flapping like a pair of humming
bird wings: maybe not quite as fast as
that, but they’re operational again.
I managed to do a wee bit of weeding then it began to spit rain.... just
as I was contemplating going up to Balcarres on the bike. We’ve had a fairly heavy shower pass over us
so Balcarres is off for today. Before
I started typing I browsed through the TV channels and have found what must be
the most boring of all programmes ... the Le Mans 24 race. Right now they have 22hours 11minutes and 48 seconds to go. I’ll go back onto this channel in
22 hours to see who wins..... maybe. It
isn’t being broadcast for the whole 24
hours ..... now that would be really boring.
Plagiarised poppy from Sussex. |
18.00 The showers have disrupted any plan I might
have had for going out on the bike in the evening.....though I might go to the
beach. I’m hoping the showers die out
overnight. It has been a ‘no bad’ day
but not how it should be coming up to the summer solstice.
