Lovely morning ....
21st
November 2019 (Thursday) 09.30 .... The beach was quiet this
morning; only me, and my Heron pal
at the Cockstail Rocks.... so we had the whole beach to ourselves. It’s a bonnie morning mostly overcast but
the sun is trying hard to burn its way through the thin layer of cloud so we
could have a few sunny spells. I’m
seriously thinking of going out on the bike because, although it’s breezy it
isn’t as cold as it has been.

12.30 Work continues apace on the new roundabout
at the War Memorial.... in fact the job will be finished today by the look of
it. The pedestrian crossing won’t have
lights so nae buttons, which is a disappointment, but it will have the pimply (tactile)
slabs for people with poor
eyesight. The
first impression I had this morning was that ‘arbour ‘ouse was cut off because
of work vehicles and we weren’t going to be able to have our morrrrrrrning
coffee; major ‘flap on’ state cut in. But that was not the case and all was well
on the coffee front! And the
entertainment one too!
The
air has turned cooler since I was on the beach.... I doubt if I’ll bother
taking the bike out after lunch.
Otherwise it’s a bonnie day. |

15.45 Welll that was really clever Alberto! I went out for a run in the car after lunch
and got back to Ivy in time to have a cuppa before going along to the ‘Drop in
Cafe. I fell fast asleep in front of
the tele and woke up at 15.30 with a three quarters full mug of tea on the
coffee table .... too late to get organised for the ‘Cafe’. Silly boy .... I made myself a fresh cuppa
and switched on the computer.
19.38 There’s dampness in the air tonight (I’ve been putting
the bucket out). The
hatches are
battened down and I have the kettle ‘on’ ready to settle down in front of the
computer.... and the tele (“Last of the
Summer Wine”) .... for the evening. I’ve
had an enjoyable day today apart from missing the ‘Cafe’. Tomorrow is going to be cloudy with the
chance of light rain... that explains the damp feel to the air tonight..... so
computer it will be. With a break for the paper and morning
coffee in ‘arbour ‘ouse.
