Clearing sky ....

6th April 2024 (Saturday)     08.00.... Although the sky is mostly overcast the overnight rain has


moved away, and the sky is breaking up from the South;  "strong winds sunny intervals... with the chance of showers" being the weather forecast for KY9.    There's a brisk wind (SE) just now .... but it's not a cold wind and will mop up some of the rain we've had recently.   I might make it to the beach....  when the sunny intervals arrive.  The wind is going to freshen ... up to F6 - 7 in the afternoon.

10.00    I thought it was going to be really warm day today but, so far, it's cold exposed to the wind.   I'm going to have morning coffee then contemplate having a short wander to either the beach or golf course;  there will be loads o' fresh air on both.   When I think about it, the 'sunny intervals' have yet to arrive so I might leave the walk until after lunch! 

15.00  The sunny intervals have been few and far between so far .... but I eventually had a short walk, round Williamsburgh then up to the golf course; where I met Marcia and her granddaughter, who were going to the Driving Range.   The Golf Course was fairly busy on what is a bonnie enough day but breezy.   

Rotten Row - Williamsburgh.

22.00    The day ended long sunny spells....and it was warm, but the wind freshened and increased the win chill.  That said it has been a bonnie enough day.... but we really need a spell of decent settled war and dry Spring weather.   There has been a lot of rain this winter and the fields are beginning to go back to marshland.   Well maybe not quite, but there's a lot of water around.

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
