Bonnie sunrise sky ....

17th January 2024 (Friday)    10.15 .... It was a quiet kind of morning, so went down to the

beach to catch the sunrise (08.32) sky.  There was a breeze but not much and I was well wrapped up.   Anyway I got a load of 'sunrise' time' photos.... and had my exercise for the morning!   I am now ready for morrrrrrning coffee.

17.00     This has been a mostly grey day;  in fact sunrise, and sunset time were the best  bits.  So it could be e brighter day tomorrow.

Work continues at the Ferry Road sub station and the trench has been reopened right across the road;  the bit on the East side has a cover over the filled in trench to allow the traffic to pass reasonably 'bump' free. 

I was wondering how I was going to get any messages to my door, but the traffic management workmen reset the lights etc. for the weekend, leaving a couple of parking places.   This cheered me up, so I went to Ainster Store and did a wee bit of shopping.    I just wanted to go somewhere on what had been a gloomy day.   It's mystery as to why they are doing this.   I might feel brave on Monday (or stay awake) and find out!     I'll take a few photos of the trench etc 'ra morra'!

22.30    My wander to the beach at sunrise time was enjoyable.... and I was surprised to find  that my breathing was better than I expected.    When the sky clouded over I had to use the bloo inhaler a couple o' times.  

I've just been reading that the upper stage of  SpaceX's (Elon Musk's Company) Starship Rocket,
suffered a "rapid unscheduled disassembly" not long after it separated from the booster.   It exploded!    Why not say that?    The bottom bit (the booster) landed back on it's launch pad as planned:  actually it's amazing watching that happen.

The 'plan' is to get up before sunrise time to catch the sunrise again (if it looks promising).   The weather forecast is for tomorrow to slightly cooler and brighter than it was today!.

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...

4th January 2024 (Saturday)    09.15 .... The car windscreens is clear, the washing I left out Shona huggin' a huge Kilbrackmont tree! overnight is flapping about in the breeze, and my breathing easier.   The sky is mostly cloudy just now, but our weather forecast for today is "sunny intervals with a gentle breeze".    There's a Yellow Warning for snow active from midnight tonight through to midday on Monday;  though I imagine it will more likely be sleet, or rain,  for us.   'Sunny Sussex' and most of the South of England is covered by an Amber Warning for snow today, so most of the UK is likely to see snow at some point over the next few days. 20.00    Although not the best of drying days the washing was nearly dry by the end of the afternoon.   Earlier in the afternoon I'd gone to Methil to annoy Alice.  We had a cuppa before going shopping.  We went to Sainsbury's they have 'everything' and are trying ...
