Frolicsome mood ....
8th October 2020 (Thursday) 08.00 .... Having slept in this morning I feel
Kinneuchar. |
refreshed and ready to tackle the garden.... a wee bit of it anyway. I haven’t been for the paper yet, I think that I will chance going for it later in the morning; when the air is warmer. It’s a nice morning and looks like being a really nice day for ‘working’ .... or playing, but there is a cool air.
16.00 There’s a lot of Clematis bits in the broon
bucket but it ain’t giving in easily, but this job will be finished by the next time the broon bucket goes
out. I eventually ‘chanced it’ and went
for the paper in the middle of the morning, by way of Ferry Road, Kinneuchar Kirk,
Elie Estate, Elie village and finally Chapel Green. I met Stewart (and assistant) getting the
supporting ‘walls’ ready for the re-installing of cattle grids (in this case
Roe Deer grids) on the Elie Estate road.
I would have gone to ‘arbour ‘ouse to buy a morning coffee but didn’t
have a wallet with me.
Re-installing cattle grids. |
The post card albums haven’t been delivered yet (and there was no note through the door indicating that someone had been at the door); I hope they come tomorrow so that I can get some postcards filed away; I’ll then have a have a better idea of how many albums will be required for all the cards. At the moment I’m thinking another seven.
It
has been a beautiful day ... a good day for working in fact; and for going for the paper. I’ll go for the paper at my usual early time
tomorrow; in anticipation of the delivery van arriving
about 11 .00.
21.00 ‘M’ was telling me that New Zealand is back to normal again (for the second
6th green. |
time). New Zealand seems to clobber it fast and hard. At home, I feel sorry for our publicans who have spent money to make their pubs as safe as they can: unfortunately they can’t control the ‘punters’. I think that we’re going to have a long winter.
I’ll
potter around Ivy again tomorrow; after
going for the paper at my usual time.
The weather forecast is good.
