Wall to wall 'bloo' sky ....


2nd March 2020 (Monday)       08.30  we have a wall to wall blue sky this
St Monans 'Auld Kirk'.
morning;   the kind of sky that makes you want to do things.   I might even do some tidying up around the garden.... and clean another window:   I don’t think it’s going to be overly warm out but wrapping up well sorts that.   ‘The Troops’ are going to have morning coffee in the Diving Gannet (St Monans) this morning so I’ll get a few more St Monans photos.     If the wind doesn’t freshen too much I might get the bike out after lunch when the air should be at its warmest, and circumnavigate the villages.

Kinneuchar loch.

13.30    I took advantage of the bonnie morning and, after I came home from St Monans, I went out on the bike.    I thought of going up to Balcarres but it was a bit too cloudy by this time so I did the Elie Estate run.... and really enjoyed the feeling of being free again.   I have to admit it was a bit cauld on the lugs but worth it.   Actually the wind freshened when I was out... that would explain the cauld lugs.
The ‘Diving Gannet’ was busy this morning;  in fact the East Neuk villages appear to be busier than they used to be at this time of year.   That isn’t a bad thing .... the villages are alive with people to talk to.

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...
