Sunny ....

2nd April 2025     08.30 .... We have a, near enough wall to wall, blue sky this morning.   There's a


chill in the early morning air,  but that will soon warm up once the sun is higher.    The light breeze is from the South just now but backing to the East, so it will be  sunny, but cool on the beach later.   I plan to go out on the bike after morning coffee.

This is 'Liberation Day' in America according to the President of the good old US of A, and his cronies.  The 'News' should be interesting later today:  both for what POTUS comes up with, and the reaction from other countries.   I hope 'we' don't 'kow tow' to bully boy tactics because of our so 'Special Relationship.

16.30   It has been another sunny day;  I'm liking this weather!   I went out on the bike, after morning coffee, and before the wind freshened, but only up to Chapel Green and the seat at the sixth tee.   It's still a bonnie, sunny afternoon but the breeze has freshened and the air is much chillier.   I've kept the bike out in case the wind drops and  feel like having another short turn 'roond the Ferrie'.

I've done some 'ousework today, and will water the tubs in the evening, so I'm content but slightly tired now.   

I used to think I had asthma, but have come to the conclusion that its the scenery around me;  it takes my breath away!   We live in a bonnie corner of the planet! .... no wonder I get breathless now and again!  I'm happy boy' now!

20.30    I've just put the bike back in the shed:  although there;'s hardly any wind it's really nippy (8C), in fact if feels like we could have  frost by morning.    Another  sunny day is forecast for tomorrow... with an North Easterly breeze.

The 'plan 'is to go to Leven and Methil ....  if Alice isn't gallivantin'.   Hopefully I will get out on the bike in the afternoon.   I've enjoyed myself today but I am tired now.   The 'News' has been mostly about the build up to the President Trump's tariff statement later tonight.   It's amazing how a single person can 

 have the whole World on tenterhooks, with his bullying tactics.   
I'm going to make my 'orlicks then get into my loungers for a restful evening:  if I can find something to watch on the tele.

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 ...
