Beautiful morning ......

20th November 2024 (Wednesday)    09.00 .... We have a lovely morning, but it's much

Colinsburgh Town Hall.
colder, than it was yesterday when exposed to the Northerly wind.  I'll go up to Colinsburgh (with Myra) for the Friendship Lunch, but I don't think I'll be down to the beach.  The photo of the moon was taken when waiting for the kettle to boil! 


15.00    We had a lovely lunch, and chat, at the Colinsburgh Friendship Lunch.   That said when I asked  Sadie and Robbie what was happening at Kinneuchar the reply, in both cases and at the same time, was ...."nothing; nothing ever happens in Kinneuchar"!   



21.00   When you first look at it the hall bit of Colinsburgh Town Hall (Built 1895) it hasn't changed: but the windows have been renewed recently, and I'm sure that the badminton lines have been painted a few r
times in the last 70 years.   The biggest improvements (and changes) have been with the Kitchen and Toilet areas.  The photograph shows the hall at the Friendship Lunch today.

Work on the Ladies 3rd tee.
I've had a good day in spite of the cold wind:  the only time I went out was to walk up to the phone box to wait a few minutes for Myra.   It was cold on the ankles in there.  There's a six inch gap at the bottom of the North and West wall panels ..... and there's nae door.   But definitely much warmer than in was outside!  
22.30     Tomorrow we ('The Team') are going to 'The Rockies' for lunch.   For me it will be Fish 'n Chips, but they do a varied menu.

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...
