morning and looks
like being a good drying day so I am going to do a washing... and I might visit
Jim. I have a cough but it’s not as bad
as I’d expected it to be and I feel in the need of some retail therapy. ‘Goodies’
come to mind. Orf to have breakfast.
20.30 This has been
a ‘mostly working’ day catching up with stuff I haven’t done for the past few
days; ‘ousework etc. I did go to Leven and had a good bit of ‘retail
therapy’ which did not include coffee .... nor goodies because I decided not to
go to the Care Home for another couple of days. I got all the things I needed (and a few
that I didn’t but fancied) so all in all I’m a happy bunny. When I

left Sainsbury’s and got onto the road out I noticed that the car two in front
of me had smoke coming out of the boot:
by the time we got to the roundabout at the Bawbee Bridge it was like he
was laying a smoke screen and we, the drivers behind him, couldn’t see a thing....
luckily there was a breeze. The last I
saw of him he was going across the bridge, making for Methil, like a rocket taking off horizontally from Cape
Canaveral. I assume he eventually saw
the smoke and stopped the car somewhere safe.
It has been a cracker of a day.... sunny and unseasonably
warm; I thought of getting the bike out
but had lunch then did a wee bit more pottering about Ivy. Later in the afternoon I went to the
harbour for a run and wandered about for nearly an hour. With there being very little wind it was
really pleasant for a change. That is
going to change by the weekend and we’re to have gales again; the weatherman mentioned ‘ferocious winds’. I don’t like
the sound of that.
Things will settle down for the Troops tomorrow; Harbour House

is back in action after the winter
break. I imagine Laura, the girls (that
includes Brenda) and the ‘boy’, Alan, will be excited already at the thought of
seeing our happy smiling faces again; and catching up with our ailment status. I am looking forward to being in ‘appy ‘arbour
‘ouse again. ... and the coffee.
I am tired tonight;
it must be all the ‘work’ I’ve been trying to do. I’ll be in bed early and read a bit more
about the naughty boys ... and girls .... of Aberdeenshire.
