What .... nae wind? ...


12th Dec 2019 (Thursday)     08.00 .... At last ... a morning with only a light
Quilt that raised over £400  for a church charity when raffled.
breeze,  though it is cloudy as far as I can see ‘cos it’s still dark;  I’ll have a daunder to the beach after breakfast to see what’s ‘appening there.   The ‘Master Plan’ is to go to Leven (again) to get my haircut, then visit Jim:  I’m not sure as to the whether I should have morning coffee before I go to Leven, or in the afternoon when ‘Harbour House' is hosting the ‘Drop in Cafe’ due to the hall being used for voting.    I guess the best idea would be to go to ‘arbour ‘ouse morning and afternoon.

16.30    My word I have had a hectic day but it has been enjoyably hectic!    I went to Leven and had my haircut, my eyebrows trimmed;   and had a cuppa in Stuart’s.    I didn’t visit Jim because I knew that today was going to be busy but will visit him either tomorrow or Saturday, but was back in Elie in time to have a quick coffee with ‘The Troops’ in ‘arbour ‘ouse.   The for some reason I got myself all a fluster when I got
Elie harbour this afternoon.
back to Ivy;  however I sorted myself out and put things to be done ‘in order’, then got the bike out and went for a quick trip ‘roond the Ferry’;   with the wind having backed to the South easterly it was raw on the lugs.
Most of my afternoon was taken up with the Drop in Cafe (held in Harbour House today) where I was able to deliver a fair number of my local Christmas cards.   The ‘locals’ that have still to be done will be done tomorrow by car as it’s going to be damp.   I have a few postal ones to send yet and they will be done tomorrow too!


19.00    This has been a busy day for ‘the boy’ and it will be a tired ‘boy’ that crawls
The cygnet in the above photo.
into his ‘burrow’ tonight.   I have caught up with all the things I wanted to do today so tomorrow should be less hectic.   I don’t have any ‘plan’ for tomorrow .... other than poodle around delivering cards and having ‘morrrrning coffee’ in ‘arbour ‘ouse.   The forecast isn’t that great for tomorrow morning but it should be brighter in the afternoon.

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 f...

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 l...

6th August 2024 (Tuesday)    10.30 .... it's a beautiful morning, with a nice fresh breeze.... if only I Aldershot 1958. could go out on the bike!   Anyway... forget dreamin';  today is my appointment with the Consultant, at Queen Margaret Hospital (Dunfermline);.... and I'm hoping to find out what the 'plan' is.   Michael and Janice are out in the car.... shopping.   They should be back in about an hour or so.    I've tidied up the kitchen and will now have a cuppa while watching some of the action from Paris.  22.00    This is more like summer.... in fact I could get to like this weather.      Michael and Janice went up to Cupar in the morning, while I got myself organized  for the Queen Margaret appointment.   Michael and Janice arrived back with lunch, Fisher and Donaldson macaroni pies, with FD's for sweet.   We set off for Dunfermline in plenty of time and arrived with t...
