Quiet morning....

28th February 2024 (Wednesday)    07.30 .... The sky is overcast in all the Fife weather cams

Balcarres - 2012.

and light rain is mentioned in the weather forecast:  funnily enough, even with a grey sky it's a nice, quiet morning .... though the 'light rain' isn't far away by the look of the Western sky.   I will go up to the 'paper shop' later in the morrrrning.... on the bike if the weather is amenable at the time.   Sunny spells come to mind.

10.30   The rain arrived just as I was getting the bike out to go to Elie .... so the bike was cancelled and I went in the car.  It isn't heavy rain ... but it's wet and doesn't agree with the bike battery.   Anyway I handed in my prescription ....and picked up the papers.   It's now morrrrrrrning coffee  time.... then work on the computer.   It looks like being a good day for that.

17.15    I surprised myself today!   How?.... I pranged a muscle while Spring cleaning!   Actually it's not tearing a muscle that surprised me; discovering that I had a muscle big enough to tear was the surprise! Anyway the Spring cleaning is 'on hold' for a few days:  so I've had a good day among the DVD's.   I found the Balcarres Three Day Event (2012) in today's lot; that meant a lot of happy browsing!

Warm up area.
19.30   I have enjoyed myself today;  I'd like to say that I was upset by having to stop the Spring cleaning.... but I'm not.  I can concentrate on less dangerous 'activities' now.  I'll start by putting the kettle 'on'.

21.00    It'd to be windy and wet tonight but rain  is moving through overnight ....to give us sunny spells with a fresh breeze tomorrow.
We, 'The Team' are going out for lunch at the 19th tomorrow..... welllll  I think we are.   Now I'm not sure.   I'll phone Myra in the morrrrrrrrning.

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
