Lovely morrrrrrrning ....

 

6th December 2020 (Sunday)     07.30 ....although still dark it feels like

Sunrise time.

we’re going to have a bonnie day.... and the forecast is good.   There’s a light breeze from the North;   not strong enough to totally dry a washing, with daylight being short, but it should give it a good airing.    It’s too dark to hang the washing out just yet, but there are light patches beginning to show in the Eastern sky:  a promising start to the day.    It’s not that cold.... but I wouldn’t say it was warm.   I need another cuppa.

10.00    It is a lovely day and I have been for the paper;  and checked out the harbour.    I didn’t have it all to  myself this morrrrrrrrrrrning with two folk going in for a swim and a photographer waiting for the sun to come up.   Busy place.   I took my ‘sunrise time’ photographs then bumbled along to Chapel Green, where I caught the sun appearing above the clouds, twenty five minutes after ‘sunrise time’.

The ‘plan’ is to take advantage of the nice morning and go out on the bike.... after another cuppa.   I’ll take money with;  I think  ‘arbour ‘ouse is open on a Sunday.

Main Street - Kinneuchar.

15.00   I had a most enjoyable run out on the bike;   up to and through Kinneuchar, then home by way of Balbuthie Loan and Elie.    It has been a beautiful day for being ‘out’, though 'nae guid' as far as drying the washing went (it’s now dangling on horses in front of radiators). 

I’ve had a busy day actually having done a few little jobs around Ivy.... and pumped up the tyres on the bike.    That’s tricky job with wee wheels ‘cos the pump connection is too long... however it can be done.   I’ll have a browse on the web and find out what kind of pumps are available;  there may be one specifically for wee wheels.

19.00    It has been a cracker of a day and I have taken advantage of it:  I haven’t written

Sunset time on the beach.

a single Christmas card today ...but I might if I find something to watch on the tele in the evening.   What I have done is enjoyed the sunshine .... and taken a lot of photographs.     Alas tomorrow is going to be cloudier, with the chance of light showers.

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
