Cooler air but nice ....
29th
August 2019 (Thursday) 05.30
.... It’s a quiet kind of
morrrrrrrrning so I’m going to take a wander
to the beach to see what kind of sunrise we get; sunrise time being 06.08 for ‘KY9’ this morning. There’s affair bit of clouds around but the
early sky does look promising.

07.30 Apart from the usual birds, I had the beach
to myself this morning; which is not
surprising considering the time. It
was an interesting pre sunrise sky and, though not spectacular it is always exhilarating
watching the sky change: it makes me
feel irrelevant in the general scheme of things but really glad that I made the
effort to be there. One thing I must do
is remember that it isn’t ’iggzactly’ warm at that time and dress accordingly; heavy duty jacket etc. Yes it was a bonnie start to the morning...
even though there was a touch of ‘red sky in the morning’ etc. There is a chance of light showers later
according to the forecast.

I
haven’t done much today; though I did do
a small washing; and some weeding as it’s
the ‘broon bucket’ tomorrow. I kept an eye on the weather re the washing
and managed to get it ‘nearly dry’ before the showers came.
In
the afternoon I visited Jim.... and found him more or less as he was
yesterday. He remembered that ‘M’ was
with me yesterday, and that we had a conversation about New Zealand: he asked how long she was over for and would
I be bringing her in again. We had a ‘normal’
conversation. As long as I remember to keep to the one
subject and to give Jim
time to think about his answer.

When I got back from Leven Patricia stopped to tell me that I’d missed a Coffee Morning earlier this week, and the Drop in Cafe this afternoon. I can’t believe that I missed those.... but I did. I am a silly boy.
‘Strong winds and rain’ is the weather
forecast for KY9 tomorrow; it looks like
being a ‘work on the computer’ day. I’ll
manage to go for morning coffee, and the paper.
