Peaceful mornin'....

15th June 2022 (Wednesday)     10.00 .... it’s an absolute stunner o’ a mornin’....


and I have been ‘roond the villages’ on the bike.   It should be a  warm day;  we don’t want it as hot as ‘Sunny Sussex’ .... comfortably warm will do.  I’m going along to the ‘Pav’ to the ‘istory Society coffee/tea morning.   I don’t know if I’ll do the Colinsburgh Lite lunch.  I’ll see how I feel: and  I have a table top that needs painting.


19.30    This has been one of the best days we’ve had in a long time;  we could be doing with a decent spell of this weather.    I actually went out on the bike again;  only as far as Chapel green but it was brilliant being out....in warm weather.

I did the ‘istory Society coffee morrrrrning;  that was really enjoyable.   When I got up to leave Graham signed ‘hat chair behind you’;  I knew what he was signing but thought I’d left my hat and scarf in the car.   I eventually got the message... after Carol pointed to my hat;  obviously I hadn’t left it in the car!   I’d been sitting on it.  Actually I must brush up on the sign language.... Maggie and I used it.    Anyway I have my hat.

East End - Colinsburgh.

Back at Ivy I gave the top of the table a coat then went up to Colinsburgh for the Lite Bite lunch:  only to find it isn’t on until next week.   I took a few photos of Colinsburgh Main Street then bumbled my way home got the bike out and did Chapel Green.

By this time I was starting to feel peckish and made a couple of sandwiches for lunch.   The doorbell rang just as I began my lite bite lunch;   it was Shona.   I made another mug o’ coffee and we went out to The Hutte and had a ‘lite bite’ sandwich lunch.    We spent the afternoon catching up with each other’s news.

The ‘lite bite’ lunch soon wore off so I got two Sweet and Sour’ chicken ready meals out of the freeze .... bunged them through the microwave and had an early dinner.

I haven’t done all the ‘work’ I intended doing, but, my word....I have enjoyed 'today'.

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 f...

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 l...

6th August 2024 (Tuesday)    10.30 .... it's a beautiful morning, with a nice fresh breeze.... if only I Aldershot 1958. could go out on the bike!   Anyway... forget dreamin';  today is my appointment with the Consultant, at Queen Margaret Hospital (Dunfermline);.... and I'm hoping to find out what the 'plan' is.   Michael and Janice are out in the car.... shopping.   They should be back in about an hour or so.    I've tidied up the kitchen and will now have a cuppa while watching some of the action from Paris.  22.00    This is more like summer.... in fact I could get to like this weather.      Michael and Janice went up to Cupar in the morning, while I got myself organized  for the Queen Margaret appointment.   Michael and Janice arrived back with lunch, Fisher and Donaldson macaroni pies, with FD's for sweet.   We set off for Dunfermline in plenty of time and arrived with t...
