Lovely morning ....


29th November 2019 (Friday)     08.00 .... we have a bonnie, quiet,
Bonnie morning.
bright and soon to be sunny morning, not quite frosty but not but not far above it in Ivy garden;   I think I could get the bike out after the sun gets going.


09.00    There was a touch of frost in the air when I was coming up from the beach, but it is a lovely morning;  a braw morning for a walk on the beach.... for a walk anywhere in fact.   I will get the bike out later and have a scuttle round the villages.    It’s time for breakfast now.


12.59    I’ve been out on the bike;  just a quick circumnavigate of Earlsferry to see that everything is where it should be.    It is.    I drove into Elie via Park Place this morrrrrrning and was pleased to give way to traffic (Myra) coming up from ‘The Royal Burgh’ because of this new roundabout.    This is how it should be.    That was when I went up for the paper and morning coffee.  

Kincraig Cliffs - Earlsferry.

19.00    I’ve had an enjoyable day.... but I am looking forward to an early night in bed;   early means about 22.00.     I had the urge to go out on the bike again in the afternoon but thought better of it, because it was colder by then.   I went up to Balcarres in the car and had a stroll around the woodland walk at the bottom of the crag.      The frost had never lifted in the shade of the trees so I didn’t hang about.... having decided that it would be warmer at Elie Harbour.   It was but not much.    We had a bonnie sunset again tonight.... so we will have another bonnie albeit cauld day tomorrow.

Yesterday I got a letter from Wendy Chamberlain (the Lib Dem candidate)... and I
Chapel Green - Earlsferry.
immediately thought “I’m in love”  .... jings my vote must be important.    This morning I found out that all the postal voters in East Neuk had  been ‘lettered’ so I dinnae feel ‘important’ many more.    Anyway I’ve voted so I’m waiting for the result.
Nae plan for tomorrow though if I’m feeling  fine and not coughing too much I might visit ‘Jimbo’.   Leven will be busy tomorrow with it being Saturday so I’d best get along there early, do any shopping etc then visit Jim.

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
