A lovely morrrrrrrning ....
18th January 2021 (Monday) 10.30 .... It’s a bonnie morning and, after a
slow start because I worked late on the computer last night, I am feeling spritely after a walk on the beach .... and a couple o’ cuppas.
I
was talking to Marcia at the gate this morning and had been telling her that I
hadn’t seen ‘Blob’ (Bless his feathery butt)
for a few days. Marcia suggested that
he might be ‘in love’; well, Marcia
continued on her way ... I turned round and there he was... ‘Blob’. He’s not ‘in love’ (though he does have a
romantic look about him this morning) and very much ruling the ‘Blob’ roost. And
all the other roosts, in Ivy garden.
I’m
orf to have another cuppa then I think I’ll contemplate getting the bike out,
for a turn round the villages.... and to pick up a paper when I’m out.

| The harbour this afternoon. |
16.00 I didn’t get out until 14.00 by which time it was bitterly cold, so I went in the car. Of course it was too late to get a paper but I did go to the harbour. You’d think I’d know by now that the harbour is not the place to go with a cauld wind blowin’.... but to the harbour I went. It wasn’t busy..... only one other walker, the stone masons and Stewart. I came home by way of Abercrombie as the Balbuthie road to Kinneuchar is ‘closed’; the bad bit of road, at the east entrance, is finally being resurfaced. I was glad to get back into Ivy.
21.00 I agree with Marcia.... I suspect that ‘Blob’
might be ‘in love’ right enough; he has
the ‘glaikit’ look that the male has when head over heels ‘in love’. I biked from Balcarres to Kinghorn some summer
evenings, just to look across the water to Edinburgh, where Maggie worked. I never told Maggie I did that! I moved to a job in Edinburgh.... it wisnae
sae sair on the legs.
I’ve been looking at the weather forecast and I think tomorrow may well be the day that I
