Beautiful morning....

23rd January 2021 (Saturday)    11.00.... Oh my word;   what an absolutely


gorgeous morning and I have been out enjoying it.   The plan was to catch the sunrise (08.25) from the ‘Pony Field’, but I forgot to take into account that I’d be higher up and that the sun would appear over the horizon a few minutes earlier;  so I missed the sun ‘ping’ as it appeared above said horizon.    I did however get a load of ‘early sunlight’ photographs, both on the golf course and on the beach.   I have yet to go for the paper But I’ll do that (in the car) after this update.

16.00    I went for the paper, but there was a queue outside the shop and I ended up at the harbour.    By the time I left the harbour, going for a paper had disappeared into the back of my mind and I ended up coming home by way of Balbuthie Loan and Kinneuchar.  The Balbuthie road entrance to Kinneuchar has been resurfaced and is the best bit of road in the village now!.   Perfect condition for one of the 'Utilities' to come and dig it up!

Early morning sunlit Lomond hills.

19.30     What a difference a whole sunny day makes;   and tomorrow is going to be more or less the same.   I have been ‘out and about’ three times so have a good collection of, hopefully nice, photographs to ‘play’ with this evening.  I never got the bike out but may do tomorrow.

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

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
