Peaceful morning ....
26th November 2022 (Saturday) 07.30....Ye Gods; I must have been a
tired boy last night. I went to bed at 22.00.... read my book for five minutes, fell asleep and woke up at 06.30. It’s a long long time since I had a complete night of unbroken sleep. Today is a ‘rest day’.
08.30 Both the 'Paper Shop' and Elie Harbour have been visited this morning; and I can report that all is good at both places. It’s a quiet, albeit overcast morning, but I
am looking for sunny spells later.
I’ve just realised why the road were so busy when driving home in the dark last night; it was rush hour. In future I’ll make a point of only driving at night when it’s absolutely unavoidable.
18.45 Alice, and I enjoyed a cuppa and blether when we visited Sheila in Upper Largo this morning; we turned over a few auld Colinsburgh names from yesteryear I can tell you Sheila played the piano at the ‘Windmill Care Home’ in Cellardyke. It was the Windmill then... it’s called ‘Willow’ Care Home now.
I have spent a lot of the afternoon ‘resting’... and will do the same tomorrow. I think driving home in the dark must have made me super tired; so it’s going to be another early night in bed with my book. If I’m lucky I’ll have another night of 8 hours unbroken sleep. Orf to make a cuppa .... and watch ‘Strictly’.
Tomorrow
is going to be another quiet ‘rest day’ for the boy; there’s a good weather forecast for KY9....‘sunny
intervals and a fresh breeze’... so I might have turn round the villages on the
bike. Actually if I remember correctly
the bike battery is low so it will have to be a short run in the morning, and,
after I’ve charged the battery, maybe a longer run in the afternoon.
I’ve had a really enjoyable day today....and I managed a short walk to the beach; welll...
not actually onto the beach as the tide was well in. I sat on a bench, wrapped up like a polar because it was cold; until I saw a couple of swimmers enjoying the surf. I then felt really cold, and thought of a warm cuppa! The beach was busy.
