Lovely morning ....

27th May 2024 (Monday)      08.30 .... After a hot (and restless) night, we have a sunny start to the

Bank Holiday, with only a light breeze so it's warm.   Unfortunately there's a yellow warning for thundery showers from midday to late evening.   Hey!...we could have some interesting clouds later:  As long as their contents fall somewhere else!   I 'm organised for my visitors;  maybe 'nearly organised' would be more accurate.  I'm going to run round with the 'oover, then circle 'The Ferry' on the bike before an early morning coffee. Slight  'Flap On'! 

13.00   Emily phoned to say that they were 'on their way'.... via Cupar to buy lunch.    Oooh... I'm droolin' because I think I know what lunch will be:  I'm looking forward to it!   Meanwhile I have been out on the 'paper run'.... well it would have been the  'paper run' if I had remembered to pick up the paper;  so, I've been roond the villages on the bike!   I was going to the harbour but cars were manoeuvring into parking places, so I didn't visit the harbour;  but I enjoyed my bike run, on what is a bonnie day .... with interesting clouds!    That reminds me;  I have a washing on the line so I'd best keep an eye on those 'interesting clouds!


17.30    Emily, John and Henry set off for Innerleithen  half an hour ago;  and we've just had a heavy shower, but no thunder.   I can't get over how much Henry has changed;  he's grown from a baby into a small boy in the last 10 weeks.    He takes an interest in all that's going on... and making a lot of different noises, instead of various different wails, to attract attention.   When Henry is the age I am now, it will be the year 2110... and I'd be 172!   I know you will all be wondering about my washing:  it was bone dry and I brought it in 5 minutes before the shower!


20.00    This has been a bonnie and busy day for me;  and I still can't get over how fast Henry is changing.   Amazing.    I have enjoyed seeing 'The Troops' and have a load o' photographs to play with over the next few days.
The 'Yellow Warning' for thunder never materialized but the sky has had a load o' lovely clouds;  luckily most of them dumped their innards somewhere else:  and my washing was 'in' before the shower we had in the afternoon.   There was thunder up in the Aberdeenshire but not in Fife.   Mind you, the 'Warning'  is active until 22.00.

I'm tired after my restless night last night;  and I hope it isn't as warm tonight.   Tomorrow will have to
be a rest day I'm thinkin'.   I think the weather is going to me more or less the same as it was today;  but it mention the chance of  'light rain'  in the afternoon.

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...
