Light frost ....

21st January 2023 (Saturday)    07.30 .... There’s rime on the car windscreen


but it isn’t hard frozen;  I won’t use the car until the sun has risen and (hopefully) melts the rime anyway.  At the moment we have light frost with a raw feel to the air.... it’s cauld!   KY9 is forecast to have ‘heavy cloud with a moderate breeze’ today;  but I’m looking for sunny spells, though it might be a forlorn hope as there’s the chance of ‘light precipitation’ later in the afternoon.    At this time I am thinking about going to the beach to catch the dawn sky;  after I have another cuppa.

10.00   It was brilliant on the beach;  the sky was spectacular and continually changing. ... so I have a wheen o’ photies tae play wi’, having been down there from dawn through to sunrise;  it was very peaceful and relaxing.    It’s now morrrrrrrrrrrrning coffee time.

11.30    The paper has been uplifted, and Alan tormented;  I’ve had a good morning.   The ‘sunny spells’ I was looking for have been with us all morning... so, I am now feeling ‘playful’ and might go down to the beach after a lite bite lunch.   It’s actually a nice day.... and warmer than of late.  

 


20.45  This has been a better day for me;  I had been worried that the ‘flu I had in December would set me back into ‘long COVID’ but I think that isn’t the case, ‘cos I’m feeling almost ‘normal me’.   I had a walk up to the golf course at sunset time though I knew from the Weather Cams that the sun would most likely set behind clouds.   It did:  however I enjoyed the wee bit o’ exercise.  And that reminds me that I have some photographs to browse. 

I see that King Charles has donated the excessive profits from wind turbines, on the  Crown Estates, to the Nation.   Will there now be a rush of other windfall beneficiaries donating their profits to the Nation?    I very much doubt it.  

‘Thick cloud and moderate breeze.... with a chance of precipitation’ is the weather for


our area tomorrow;  but it should be noticeably warmer.   Could be a day to stay in and do some drawing.

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...
