Quiet morning ....

1st August 2020 (Saturday)     06.00 .... it’s a nice, quiet mornin but

Breadwinner II off Apple Rock.
there is the chance of a few early showers but after they’ve passed over we should have another  bonnie day;   and a busy one.

I’m sorry about how ‘The Hutte’ text is all mixed up when I add photos;   someone has decided that ‘Blogger’ had to be improved(?) and this is the result.    The IT folk are still working on it so it should improve.    The ‘old’ Blogger (that worked) is to be totally closed down on the 24th August.     I’m not sure what the reason is for  needing to update ‘Blogger’..... something to o with making it more acceptable to i phones I think.   Oh well I can report any problems:  it will be interesting to see what the outcome is.

 09.30    It’s an absolute cracker of a mornin’ .... a nice day ahead I’m thinkin’.     The face masks have me beat .... I hardly recognise anyone behind them at first;  it’s like being in a queue full of ‘strangers’.    That said the villages are busy, and we do have a

Chapel Green.
lot of ‘strangers’ about;   however ‘strangers’ are, mostly, friends we have yet to know.   Mind you it stresses me out a bit when I go out and pass people I should know but miss them because my brain is in ‘stranger’ mode.

Chapel Green has a ‘first’ this morning;  a car dumped on it after a bit of playing around.     I’m disappointed but not surprised.   That  sort of thing that can easily be stopped  by simply putting bigger boulders between the posts.

Orf to have a cuppa;  then I might go out  before the villages start to fill up.

18.30    I was feeling adventurous so went out on the bike at 17.30 when the streets had quietened down.    With this being a ‘change over’ weekend the new arrivals are settling

Earlsferry.
in  after driving from various parts of the UK.... I noticed a ‘GY’ registration when I was out;  the original registration being Brighton.    The beach will be busier tomorrow.... especially if the weather is good.

21.00     With it being a quiet evening I went for a walk up to the Pony Field and golf course;  it’s almost strange seeing the village so quiet!   I daresay it well liven up tomorrow;  the forecast isn’t bad.

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

Cold and overcast ....

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
