Warm and damp .....
30th April 2023 (Sunday) 09.00.... There’s been some rain overnight, and
Apple blossom time. |
light rain is mentioned in the weather forecast for KY9 today, but at the moment its warm and muggy; I’m looking for sunny spells in the afternoon.... with the chance of light precipitation. With only a light breeze (E) there’s nae wind chill to bother about; it’s a quiet and peaceful morning. The villages could be busy with ‘Scarecrow Seekers’.
21.00 I
bumbled along to Alice’s, by way of the Bargain Store (Leven) where I had a
small bit o’ retail therapy. (Retail
Therapy?.... shopping is anything but that nowadays). There was a lot o’ water on the roads so,
after I finished shopping, I went to Methil via Windygates ....to avoid the
deep puddle that fills the dip (to a depth of 12 inches or so) at the South end
of the ‘Iron Brig’. I arrived at Alice’s
in time for a morrrrrning cuppa. We
then spent the morning having a good, old fashioned blether.... before having a bowl o’ soup and a sweet (a nae
calories apple tart with ice cream) for lunch;
the diet begins tomorrow. I was
back at Ivy around about 14.00.... and ready for a catnap.
It has been a wet afternoon... but not cold. In fact the evening time has turned out to be the best bit o’ the day. That could mean a bonnie day tomorrow; or, at least a bonnier one. ‘Light rain and a moderate breeze is the forecast’... and I’m expecting sunny spells in the morning.
This
has been an enjoyable and restful day;
tomorrow will be another of the same.... unless I feel brave and decided
to go out on the bike. No, when I
thing about it, the roads will be too busy, as tomorrow is a Bank Holiday.. I’ll ‘lie low’ and have a quiet day with the
pencils and pens.
