Dreich ....
1st
November 2019 (Friday) 07.00 .... Mmmmm ... it’s cauld and wet
as per weather forecast; a real dreich
morning. I am feeling considerably
brighter than the weather and looking forward to morning coffee in ‘arbour
‘ouse..... then spending the rest of the day mostly working on the computer, and doing
Soduko’s. I might bake Melting Moments..... baking and sampling 'MM's is always a cheering occupation on a dreich day.

09.00 The sky to the West is showing promising
changes in greyness; could we be in for
a few bright spells? “Light rain
showers and a gentle breeze” is the forecast for today.... but a bright spell
would be very welcome. I haven’t been
anywhere further than the pavement when manoeuvring the bucket into its ‘ready
for emptying’ position. I’ll have
another cuppa then ‘loup’ into the car and go up to Elie for the paper.... and morrrrrrrrrrrrning
coffee.
15.30 Ye Gods .... it has been a bleak afternoon...
and it looks like being so for the rest of the day. However the forecast for tomorrow is
improving with the mention of sunny spells.
I did enjoy morning coffee with the ‘Troops’; George was missing but he will most likely be
in the state of being ‘in love’. I had
a run down to the harbour but there wasn’t much happening down there; it’s been that kind of day. I pottered about on the computer, had ‘50’,
did a Soduko; and not very much else. The ‘plan’ was to go to Leven at some point
but I decided to cancel that plan;
however I did go up to Colinsburgh to put fuel in the car. That’s when I changed the ‘plan’: when I found that it was even wetter at
Colinsburgh than it was at Elie and Earlsferry.

| Damp morning. |
19.00 I’m not saying that it’s really really
dreich just now; but the morning was the
best part of the day as far the weather went.... and it was drab. My word it is miserable this evening: I had to go out to put something in the bucket. I
would say that a cuppa would be a good idea but I already have one.
‘Nae
plan’ for tomorrow; the weather dictates what we, do on a daily basis (in Bonnie
Scotland) at this time of year .....it is so changeable. The forecast is not great but we should get
sunny spells after a wet start to the morning.
It looks like being a good morning for staying late in bed.
