Breezy ....

15th November 2022 (Tuesday)    08.00 .... I had a quick trip to the beach to


catch the pre sunrise sky:  there’s a frisky wind so I didn’t stay for actual sunrise.   Anyway, ‘slight flap on this morrrrrrrrning’,  I have to go to Leven and I intend leaving about 08.40.   I got a load of photographs but only had time for a quick browse.




15.45     My word we have had a wet afternoon;  the journey home from Leven  was wet.... and in low cloud at Largoward.  (By the way...the car ‘Failed’ the MOT so will be going for a long ‘oliday at Kirkcaldy).   Apart from some deep surface water the journey was uneventful.   Normally it’s quite a scenic route but not this afternoon!

I’m glad that I went to the beach this morning;   I won’t be going out with the camera again today.   I went for a walk when the car was getting it’s MOT and took a few photos at the Banbeath Industrial Estate:  they aren’t the most exciting to look at but they are a record of my visits to Fife Auto.


I visited Alice after leaving the garage, where I enjoyed a cuppa with an Apple and Cinnamon scone....and had a good old natter.   With the weather being what it was, we didn’t go anywhere.... choosing instead to chat about the ‘olden days’, and Alice’s activities with ‘Special Needs’ folk.   She is a busy ‘girl’.

21.30    It has been a long, and eventful, day but at last the rain has stopped, and tomorrow’s weather forecast is... 30 second delay ........ ‘light cloud with a moderate breeze’ and only a low chance of precipitation.   I might go out on the bike.... when the ‘sunny spells’ come along, if it isn’t too cold;  there’s going to be a cool breeze off the sea.   At the moment I don’t have a ‘plan’ for tomorrow.   Right now I’m thinkin’ it’s chocolate time.... and I need to find a book to read in bed.

I mentioned earlier that I’d take a few photos of Banbeath Industrial Estate;  not the


most interesting of subjects but it exists, and I have used one of its services,  so has to be recorded.  It’s unlikely that I’ll ever go back there:  certainly not for the scenery.

Overcast with light rain .....

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

Cold and overcast ....

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
