Lovely morrrning ....
17th
September 2019 (Tuesday) 07.30 .... it’s a nice morning and not
as
cold as yesterday because there only a light wind. I
am ready to take the car to the garage though I’m not in the mood for doing
that; I’d rather stay at Ivy and annoy ‘M’. I’m hoping the car is near the top of the
list... the job shouldn’t take that long once it’s on the ramp. Orf to have a cuppa.
Quiet morning. |
21.00 What a difference the new exhaust has
made; I’m ‘in love’ with the car
again. The job didn’t take long and I
was back at Ivy by 09.wo, having a cuppa with ‘M’. We then went to Leven because ‘M’ needed to
buy some bit’s and bobs, and have a trawl round the Charity shops. ‘M’ didn’t but anything but I did; a ‘Flat White’ in Costa Coffee.
'M' on 'The Ferry' High Street. |
From
Leven we went to the Cupar Garden Centre to have lunch. It’s a wee while since I’ve been there and
it has changed just a bit. It’s in the
same location but bigger and with a bigger (and popular) restaurant. There’s always been a restaurant at this
garden centre but this is a new one: Cupar is one of a chain of ‘Caulders Garden Centres’
in Central Scotland the first one having opened in Mugdock Park, 10 miles north
of Glasgow, in 1999. We enjoyed a braw
lunch and ‘M’ bought a couple of things to take home to New Zealand.
By
the time we got back to Ivy I was well ready for a quick ‘50’... which I
promptly had. George, who had been out
for a walk with his camera, arrived for a blether... and a cuppa. Ant that is what we did. We caught up with all George’s ‘news’ and
stuff.
‘M’
goes back to stay with her sisters tomorrow... staring at Crail. I have enjoyed
having her stay with me, (for nine days I think it is); and it has been
brilliant having someone around to chat to.
Hopefully that feeling was two way!
It will be back to Skype in a a couple of weeks though I will see ‘M’
before she sets off on her journey back to Otaki (North Island, New Zealand).
Thoughtful 'M'. |
‘Plan’
for tomorrow? Well we intend going to ‘arbour
‘ouse for morning coffee then taking a few photographs around about Ivy before
I take ‘M’ along to Crail. The weather
forecast is ‘nae bad’ for tomorrow.... probably cloudier than today but no
mention of showers.
