October 2019 (Wednesday) 08.30 ....there was a definite autumn
 |
| Sunrise over the East links. |
feel
to the early morning air.... but I did remember to wear two gloves. It was a beautiful morning, still is, though
there is a cool wind from the Northeast, and I had the beach to myself. It looks like being a bonnie day, and it
should be warmer once the sun gets up a bit;
that said there will be wind chill.
It’s a good morning for working in
the garden... and biking once the air is warmer.
19.00 There hasn’t been a lot of work done though
I did do a washing and will iron that tonight;
but I did go out on the bike in the afternoon, on an erratic ‘Grand Tour’ and enjoyed
it, even though it was cold on the lugs when out in the wind. At Chapel Green I sat on one of the seats
sheltered from the wind and it was really warm;
I nearly fell asleep. I promptly
jumped on the bike went home and had ‘50’ then went out again to the harbour
then home by way of the estate.

Spiders
are beginning to look for cosy places to spend winter and today I found a huge
one at least four inches from tae nail to tae nail wellll ... maybe not quite four inches....more
like one and a half inches. When you
think about a spider has eight legs that’s a lot o’ tae nails to cut. But I’m wanderin’ off the subject
again; now where was I? .... oh aye; all of her eight eyeballs were glowerin’ at me. So I says tae her... "my
lass you are going out on your fea”.... I was going to say “feathery butt” then
I remembered that spiders don’t ‘ave feathers;
so I said “you my lass are going
out on whatever kind of butt you have!” Picked
her up, the big spiders are the girl ones, and placed her gently in the middle
of a big bush. No doubt she will be
back in

| Kinneuchar Loch. |
Ivy later tonight. Boy spiders are the skins of spiders you find near where they mate .... she has him as a snack after she's enticed him into doing his duty!
21.00 Busy
morning for ‘the boy’ tomorrow; going to
Leven for haircut, then visit Jim, then do a wee shopping when I’m there. Our weather is going to be ‘sunny intervals
with a moderate easterly breeze’.... so not ‘iggzactly’ warm; and I’m getting
my hair cut? Silly boy.
