Quiet morning....

 9th January 2024 (Tuesday)    07.30 .... the sky is overcast with an Easterly breeze; and it's cold


with some wind chill.... that was at 'Blob's breakfast time.  I've had my breakfast.... and now going to have another cuppa.

19.30    Welll this has been one busy day;  I didn't even have time for an afternoon nap!    At the end of this busy day I've had a bone scan at 'The Vic' (Kirkcaldy).  It's a long day because you have an injection three hours before the scan.   The scan itself only takes 20 minutes so you have to fill in the time between.   Luckily Alice and Izzy took me to 'The Vic' then Izzy drove us to a Cafe here we had morrrrrrrning coffee: I had to consume1 litre of water;  plus I had three cups o' tea;  before the scan.   We then went back to the hospital for the scan.   After that was done and dusted, we went to 'Rejects' Restaurant for something to eat.   A big 'Thank You' to Alan, who picked Alice and I up from the Alice HQ and delivered us to Izzy, who then took us on to Kirkcaldy.   It has been a long and tiring day and I'm glad it's over.   I suspect that tomorrow might be a rest day!

I didn't take any photographs today; but I'll dig one or two from the 'Alberto Archive' to brighten the page up.   It has been a bonnie enough day as far as the weather went.... and we had a 'ted sky at night' so tomorrow should be a bonnie. if slightly cold , day.

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

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
