Romantic morning ....

27th April 2022 (Wednesday)     09.00 .... I had an early morning walk to the

Wedding marquee.

beach, on what is a pleasant, but slightly cloudy morning.   There’s only a light breeze so it isn’t as cold as it has been of late;  but I won’t dig out the sun cream yet.  The beach was busy for that time of morning;  with dog walkers on a huge beach.   The tide was full out.

We have a ‘Royal Burgh’ wedding this weekend;  the marquee is being set up, and I am already in a state o’ excitement, with something new to photograph.   I hope the weather is fine.

17.00    Being ‘confined’ to the house for most of the day is frustrating’ (especially on a bonnie day like today);  but I manage to fine ‘ousework to do (not much) in between doing Soduko’s in the Hutte and research on the computer.   Oh.... and doing breathing exercises (4 times daily) .... and falling asleep in various places.   I’ve been checking the weather forecast for the next few days;  the wind direction is due to change to Westerly on Monday.


We (The Team) are going out for lunch tomorrow (the ‘Rockies’) so I’ll do a ‘test’ this evening.   Having had all the jabs I don’t suppose it’s really necessary, but I’ll do one anyway.

21.30    I did a COVID test and it is ‘clear’... as I expected it to be, so I am fine for tomorrow:  blood test at the surgery (09.20) then ‘play’ until lunch time.   The forecast is good for tomorrow (more of the same) with high pressure over us (1027 on my barometer) so we should have a dry easterly breeze.... a cool dry Easterly breeze I should say.   I’ll take a walk to the beach first thing.

Other than the surgery and ‘The Rockies’ I have no ‘plan’.  I’ll hang around Ivy during the best part of the day.... when the pollen is worst;  then I might go out on the bike, depending on how cold it is, in the early evening.   Biking in a dry easterly breeze is not good for my (wrinkle free) delicate skin.

I’m going to make the chocolate, then look for something to watch on the tele; hopefully


 an interesting documentary.

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
