Lovely autumnal morrrrrrrrrrrning ....


3rd October 2019 (Thursday)     08.00 .... we have another lovely
The Ferry beach on what is a really bonnie morning.
morning.....‘sunny intervals with a moderate breeze’ being the forecast for our area.    I haven’t been out... well no further than the front gate .... as I started ‘playing’ with some photographs and forgot about sunrise time.   Nae clouds for the rising sun to light up so it wouldn’t be  a spectacular sunrise.
‘M’ will arrive home today .... in fact she may well be in New Zealand now.   We will all have to get used to her not being here......but at least we have Skype.
I’d better go and have breakfast then get organised for Leven.

 09.00    It's such a bonnie morning that I had to have a daunder to the beach..... and I had it all to myself.   On the way home Patricia reminded me that its 'Drop in Cafe' this afternoon.   The plan is to go.... unless I end up being diverted.

Kinneuchar this afternoon.

17.00     Yet again Sarah (hairdresser) has worked her magic and I feel much more comfortable,.... even optimistic.   It great what a haircut can do.    I then went to Stuarts to buy a goodie for Jim;  I bought three in case he was sitting with one of his ‘girlfriends’.   Sitting with his girlfriends? .... he was sound asleep in a comfortable chair.     One of the nurses said that it would be best to let him sleep as he’d been wandering about a lot during the night so I left him in peace.   He did look contented... even if he was sporting two black eyes after falling the other day.   I have two goodies to eat!

I did remember to go to the ‘Drop in Cafe’ this afternoon, the weather had completely changed from a lovely warm, wind free morning to a grey, cold  and breezy afternoon, meaning that I didn’t go out on the bike.   Had I done that I’d probably have been sidetracked and forgotten all about the ‘Drop in Cafe’.    It wasn’t overly busy but we managed to make a lot of noise;   well Lexie made a lot of noise!  


19.38    Now .... that was a good year!    It is bitterly cold out and rain is forecast overnight;  we might have wet start to Friday.    No biking tomorrow I’m thinkin’.   I
Ferry High Street (East end south side).
don’t need to go anywhere tomorrow.... other than for the paper and morning coffee bumble up to Elie in the car.   It’s strange how I ‘bumble’ in the car and ‘scuttle’ on the bike.   You’d think the car would be the faster of the two.   The Ivy hatches have been battened down and I am now ready to potter work on the computer for most of the evening.    If it is wet in the morning I shall make a cuppa and go back to bed for an hour or two.

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 friends gathering to celebrate Brian and Moira's Gol

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 lunch!   And it was a really good lun

18th April 2024 (Thursday)    08.00 .... The Fife Weather cams are all showing an overcast sky:  rain hasn't reached Fife so far, but is expected to arrive by mid morrrrrrrning...."light rain and a fresh Westerly breeze" being the forecast until later in the afternoon;  but we're going to end the day with a bonnie evening.  Hmmmmm .... I don't think I'll be painting any bits of the shed today; and that was my project to take my mind off the car.   Computer stuff it will have to be:  I'm actually in a writing mood so this might not be a wasted day. 09.00   Forget the heap oops... car (it's in the 'bad car' corner);  I'm excited because the workmen are here to begin work on the patio. They arrived a wee while ago;  unfortunately spits and spots o' rain arrived at the same time and, if  the rain is heavy and prolonged they won't be able to do much.   Showers are OK but not prolonged rain.  Must 'go' got to have another cuppa
