Early morning fog ....

21st April 2022 (Thursday)     08.30 ....The sun will burn back the haar we have


just now and we will have a bonnie day; though there will be a cool breeze off the sea.   

Well I’m feeling brighter this morning;  but I have to say that my second booster jab (the first time I’ve had Pfizer) did have ‘the day after side effects’.   After the previous three jabs I had a slight headache for a couple of hours the next day;  but yesterday I had the headache and my eyeballs were all over the place.   Anyway I’m feeling positive today (and my eyeballs are doing what they should do):  the test will be doing a ‘Diabolical Soduko’.

16.30    I am near enough over the ‘side effects’ of the jab;  I even did a wee bit of weeding.   That said I am tired now but I intend going up to Chapel Green, on the bike, once the work traffic (and there’s a lot o’ that) is off the road.   It has been a nice day; pleasantly warm away from the wind.    I passed the ‘diabolical’ Soduko test, so I am a happy boy:  in fact I did two (they’re from the Daily Telegraph book).   I think I deserve a cuppa before pulling a few more weeds.


21.00   The haar came in again late in the afternoon;  in between the morning and afternoon haar it was lovely.... warm in the garden which is where I spent a fair bit of the afternoon.     I saw the weather forecast for the weekend a few minutes ago and it looks like we’re going to have an onshore breeze most of the rime;  probably means haar morning and evening.  

I had a wander up the street to post my voting paper earlier today;  I like to get that done in plenty of time.    A postal vote was much easier for Maggie, so I got one at the same time.   The beach was quiet but that’s understandable on a cool and breezy morning.

I’m feeling much better tonight but I have ‘nae plan’ for tomorrow.   This East wind restricts my outdoor activities;  however I will go up to Chapel Green at some point .....  but I won’t bother with the coffee.

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
