Lovely, crisp morning ....


25th February 2020 (Tuesday)      08.00 ....  Nice crisp morning (we
St Monans.
have a touch of frost) with a light westerly breeze;  definitely a morning to get out and about.   What a difference it makes when the sun is visible.   According to the weather forecast it‘s going to be cold today with the odd chance of a shower coming across..... it’s a ’wrap up well and explore’ morning.    I’ll take the car to St Monans,  bumble around the harbour then have coffee in the ‘Diving Gannet’ with the ‘Troops’.


13.30    It was a beautiful morning for bumbling about St Monans harbour.... and  I enjoyed a coffee in ‘The Diving Gannet’ with ‘The Troops’ midday through my morning.   Jimmy’s son, Ian was busy getting ‘Shearwater’ ready for the lobster season
Links Road - Earlsferry.
having had a frustrating time with the weather trying to get the work done.
I am happy with today’s batch of photographs;  the light was perfect and a few clouds came over to make the sky interesting.    Jim Ednie (Colinsburgh) was working on a boat by the middle pier so there was a bit of activity at the harbour for a change:  usually I have it to myself.

19.00    This change in the weather (sunshine instead of wind and rain) had me out again in the afternoon.... this time I went up to the ‘Pony Field’ and home by the golf course.   I had thought of getting the bike out but it would have been ‘cauld on the lugs’;   anyway I enjoyed the walk though I don’t doubt that my knee will be sore tonight.
Tomorrow’s weather is going to be much the same as today’s was for us;   sunny and
Earlsferry from the pony field.
cold.... but with a fresher breeze.    We have the ‘Colinsburgh Lite Bite Lunch’ tomorrow so I don’t need to bother with food.    Just a snack at tea time will do.   I don’t have a plan for tomorrow;  I might go to the beach in the early part of the morning the tide will be going out then.   If it’s a good drying day I’ll wash the Lobby, kitchen and bathroom floors.   I have to leave the doors open so that the floors dry quickly:  I shut the ‘glass door’ so that the main part of Ivy’ stays warm.   Hmmm ... that’s a ‘plan’ for tomorrow, but it depends on just how windy and cold it is.

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...
