Frosty ....
14th December 2022 (Wednesday) 07.45 .... It’s -3C this morning but it
feels much colder than that... because there a brisk breeze from the WNW. It’s bitterly cold; I won’t be going to the beach until the sun is up... if at all. Our forecast for today is .... 14 minute pause .... is ...‘sunny with a moderate wind’.... so it’s going to be a bonnie day .... but awfie cauld. It’s definitely a Christmas card writing day.
10.30 I’m having ‘morrrrning coffee’ before going
out to post the cards; the Royal Mail
workforce is on strike today so there’s no hurry to get the cards out... as
long as it’s sometime today. (As I have
previously mentioned; if an MP is worth
£84,144 plus expenses and perks ... what are workers worth?????).
I’ll
be going out in the car to pick up the paper and get bread at the Bakers so I’ll
post them then. I’m not keen on my
toast this morning.... having been slightly overdone. ‘Burnt’ in fact... then scraped.

12.30 I’ve been up to Elie for the papers, bread
and a couple of vitally needed Christmas pies. The sun is well up but it’s still cold
out... especially at the harbour. That
reminds me; on the way to the harbour I
remembered to post the Christmas cards. I’m a ‘happy boy’. I’d be even happier if it was warmer.
16.45 We had a peaceful lookin’ sunset...that means it’s going to be cold tonight... and
tomorrow. I am not enjoying this cold spell. Having said that I took the car to the Toft to catch the sunset, and had a run to the harbour then home by Kinneuchar.
