Overcast and breezy ...


26th August 2019 (Monday)     07.00   ..... Ohhhh .... it’s overcast and
The sun breaking through.
breezy;  not ‘iggzactly’ what I was expecting, but at least it’s dry .... and warm:    the forecast is for us to have ‘sunny intervals with a moderate breeze’.    I’ll leave the biking until later .... once the sky breaks up;  I'm feeling quite frisky this morning. 

 08.00     The early morning weather is slightly disappointing and especially noticeable after the brilliant day yesterday.   I haven’t been anywhere but have done some housework and had breakfast.... now I’m going to have another cuppa and concoct a ‘plan’ for this afternoon.  
  09.30    I ended up wandering down to the beach to see the sun breaking through the clouds... by the time I came off the beach it had,....  and it was warm and sunny.   It’s going to be another hot day again, though wind is friskier so it might not be ‘mauchless’ hot.  This Bank Holiday has been blessed with bonnie weather.  I’ll pop
... a few minutes after the photo above was taken.
along to Elie (in the car) for a paper... and morrrrrrning coffee in Harbour House.


13.01    I’ve just had news from my Top Secret roving reporter that Joyce (my Top Secret roving reporters’ adoring w.... oops .... I am nearly a silly boy) is playing Kirsteen in the Final of the Ladies Bowl Championship (Elie) this week .... in fact it could be this afternoon.... so “enjoy the Final girls”!    I'm feeling lavish with X's, so XXXX's to the Finalists... and mair XXXX's to the Winner and the Runner Up.


14.00   My word .... I’ve had to give up working in the garden.... and sitting in The Hutte;   the temperature is at 25c, and that’s with a ‘cooling’ breeze.   I won’t be going out on the bike this afternoon .... but I might go up to Chapel Green in the evening to have coffee with ‘The Boss’.   Right now I am in ‘rest mode’ .... inside Ivy with a glass
The beach this evening.
of water.
20.00    Another bonnie day is ending with a bonnie and balmy evening.    I biked up to Chapel Green and spent a lazy half hour reminiscing mostly.... just letting my mind drift.

Tomorrow I must organise a haircut;  I want to see my lugs again.    And it might help with my hearing.  The weather is going to be slightly cooler in Scotland.... but not much, so a good day for getting a haircut.

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...
