August 2019 (Saturday) 07.30 .....
We had a colourful sunrise this

morning, though I didn’t see the actual
sun come over Elie skyline as it disappeared behind a low cloudbank; however the pre-sunrise sky was what I wanted
to photograph. It was a “red sky in the
morning” sky so we should expect ... probably wind and rain at times today. It was fairly pleasant on the beach but a
bit windy; I had the monopod with me so
that help negate the wind effect. I’m
a happy bunny .... and well ready for breakfast.
08.30 Blimey.... I’m glad I went to the beach to
catch the sunrise; it looks like that
was the best of the morrrrrrning..... we have wind and rain now. I think we are forecast to get sunny spells
later but right now it is not a morning for being out.

15.30 The rain passed over us and we’ve had a sunny dry and windy afternoon
so far; the wind is beginning to
moderate so I might get the bike out later. As for me .... I have been using my afternoon wisely .... mostly on the computer....
and I am a happy bunny with the end product of all this ‘hard work’.
21.00 This has been a really satisfying day for
me.... working on the computer with photographs mostly. What I was doing challenged the auld brain
cell but it came up with all the correct answers.... eventually. It’s good to have a challenge now and
again. Tomorrow afternoon I have
another challenge ..... a wee bit signwriting.
With my hands that could be tricky but I can’t wait to see how I get
on. A few cuppas might be required.
Tomorrow
the local History Society will be doing guided walks round The Royal Burgh....
and the weather forecast is good: “light rain showers and a moderate

breeze”
with the chance of showers increasing after midday. The walks will be an interesting way, to find
out about the auld place. The History
Society guides will be keen to answer any questions: actually, when I think of it, I have a
question I need answered. I’ll see
Alan tomorrow morrrrrrrning!
What
is my ‘plan’ for tomorrow? Welll I’ll
scuttle up to Chapel Green on the bike, with a flask of coffee, in the morning,
assuming the showers are few and far between, and spend a quiet hour with ‘The
Boss’.... then do the signwriting in the afternoon.
