Light cloud ....

29th September 2024 (Sunday)     09.45 .... It's a quiet morrrrrrrning.... apart from 'Blob'

Drumeldrie.

warbling away in the Rowan tree;  he's a bonnie whistler.   We have "light cloud with a gentle breeze" so pleasant enough to be out.   I'm hoping for a sunny spell or two, but they're not mentioned in our weather forecast.   Actually the breeze is backing to the ESE so we'll probably have 'light cloud' for most of the day.

Iain is out doing something in the garden;  my job id making mince n' tautties for lunch .... and Cottage Pie ready meals.  

20.00    Iain and I have had a productive day;  Iain working in the garden and planning converting the wee shed for keeping a Mobility scooter in..... and me working in the kitchen producing a succession  cuppas....  and doing the mince n' tautties.   I got our lunch and 5 ready meals for the freezer.  That was from 1.5kg of mince and loads o' mixed vegetables.  I am well shattered now, but happy with what we've done.   Iain is coming down in a couple of weeks, when we'll have another look at mobility scooters;  and might even buy one.   Browsing on line is helpful daunting;  but there are so many to choose from.   We hope to get a trial run the next time we go to Kirkcaldy.

East end o' the "Staunin' Stane" road.
It has been  good day for doing things;  Iain made big progress with tidying up the garden, and I am kna... er shattered with staunin' in the kitchen most of the mornin'.   Tomorrow will be a 'rest day'.  The forecast for us is .... 30 second  pause .... is .... "light rain with a moderate breeze from the East".   I'm looking for sunny spells.   

We have Episode 5 of 'Nightsleeper' tonight (The last episode is tomorrow night).   I think I'll make the bed time chocolate drink after this update, and get into the loungers;  I'm well tired after a busy weekend.

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...
