Beautiful mirror oops morrrrrrrrrrning ....

22nd April 2022 (Friday)    09.00 ....I wondered where the haar was this


morning then realised that the wind had backed to the NNE and the haar would be further south.   It’s a nice morning though cool in the brisk wind.   The paper has been uplifted, the harbour checked, the ‘broon bucket’ emptied and I’m feeling ‘almost frightfully frisky’;  all is good at Elie and Earlsferry.  



16.30   In spite of the brisk wind has been a lovely day;  and I have enjoyed it.   It was a bit breezy to go out on the bike so I’ve had a lazy day.... though I might go out in the evening once the streets are quieter.   My asthma (pollen) kicked in about 09.30 so I was confined to Ivy for most of the day:  however the breathing is settling down again, hence the ‘plan’ to (maybe) go out in the evening.  


This morning I had fallen asleep in front of the tele and sort of thought I heard the doorbell.    On answering the door (I must have looked half asleep... in fact more than half) I was pleasantly surprised to find Nicola at the door;  so I had Cullen Skink for lunch courtesy Nicola.   My word it was tasty: “Thank you” Nicola.   (Note to me;  consider combing hair now and again).  

22.00    Well;  this has been a funny day for me..... learning how to ‘manage ‘ my asthma is all new stuff.   Knowing when to stay ‘in’ is the main thing.   Having said that I am getting on with my drawing so I’m happy ‘staying in’....  during the busiest part of the day..... even though it is also the warmest time of day.   

Tomorrow is going to be another nice day;  in fact more or less a repeat of today’s


weather.   I hope to take the bike to go for the paper.... if it isn’t too windy.    My breathing is fine in the early part of the morning.    Must ‘go’ ... ever so slight ‘flap on’;  got chocolate to make.

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
