31st
July 2019 (Wednesday) 07.00 .... It’s windier, and overcast but
dry.

Junior golfers on the tenth fairway - Earlsferry links. |
The yellow warning is still in
place; active from midday through to
midnight.... hey, we might get some bonnie clouds in the afternoon. Right now there’s a menacingly dark area of
cloud over the south side of the Firth...hopefully moving south. For
those with allergy problems the pollution levels are at ‘Medium’.... a change
of wind direction should sort that. I’ll go out after this update.... but not too far, not until I see where that dark cloud is going.
21.00 I went up to Chapel Green hoping to see
bonnie clouds but, although the sky was laden with clouds they weren’t the huge
Cumulonimbus ones I was hoping for. Maybe
that’s a good thing (no cumulonimbus clouds), because we haven’t had any
thunder today, but there’s been lightning strikes all around us in the
afternoon/evening; along the ‘sooth side...
the West of Scotland and Fife, and North of

the Tay... also out in the North
Sea, but we’ve been lucky. That said
there has been that heavy thundery feel to the air. I’m feeling optimistic and thinking that the thunder
showers will miss us altogether. It has
been quite pleasant today, though mostly cloudy... but warm.
The
villages are busy just now; Earlsferry
is like a proper ‘living’ village, full of people doing normal ‘people’ things. There was some kind of Junior golf competition
this afternoon... so the golf course was busy;
as was the beach, and the Coastal Walk.
I should have taken my flask of coffee up the Boss’s Seat .... ‘The Boss’
is happy with my ‘work’ efforts just now.... and there are lots of people to
chat to. I do believe that ‘M’ arrives in
London today .... then Bonnie Scotland tomorrow. ‘M’s sisters, Molly, Sandra and Edith will be
looking forward to seeing her

again.
She is over for 8 weeks.... so I’ve put a new bag in the ‘Hoover’; I imagine that’s the sort of thing girls would
expect. I suppose I could go ‘over the
top’ and do some dustin’ as well!
We’re
going to get a few more sunny spells tomorrow, though we could also have a few
light showers in the afternoon. I might
go out early in the morning, then bumble around the garden in afternoon; its the ‘broon’ and ‘bloo’ buckets this week
and I like the broon one to be full.
