Quiet, sunny morning ....

 3rd July 2025 (Thursday)    08.00 .... We have  a lovely, sunny start to 'day', but the sky is to cloud

I wasn't the only that thought it was cold!
over, with 'thundery showers' forecast for the afternoon.   I need my daily fix of photographs to play with in the evening, so better go out with the camera after breakfast.   It's a quiet morning just now but the breeze is to freshen by lunch time.   'Must go go go'... slight flap on;  got to have another cuppa.... then a few photographs to take.

11.00    I thought about going up to Chapel Green on the bike but the wind has freshened and its cold;  so I went for a run in the car, and did the Balbuthie run, including the harbour.   I have the feeling that the traffic problems at the harbour are going to be bad this year.   Anyway I got a few photies tae play wi' in the evening.  

I phoned Alice to see is she fancied going to the Wellesley Kirk Community Centre for lunch, but she is 'out'.   This means that lunch is going to be a sandwich, with my main meal at 'denner time'.   Oops.... I see spots o' rain hitting the window, this is probably going to be a 'rest day' now.  Havin' said that, it's only showers, and most of them will miss us.

Gannet.
20.30   This changeable weather has upset my 'summer' plans;  (and fired up a migraine in the afternoon).   I ended up watching the tennis (Wimbledon) and cat napping.   It seems that with this    weather I do the right thing by going out in the morning.   It has been a nice enough day, and the showers never came to.... oops ...there's the phone!

I'm back.    And I've forgotten what I was gaun  tae write aboot.   I'll make a cuppa .... that's something haven't forgotten aboot.    I'll be back later.

22.45    I didn't mean to be this late, but I've been busy on the phone, catching up with family stuff.  Derek's Celebration of Life service is at Brewesterwells Crematorium on Wednesday and I've been sorting out what to wear for that.   Iain is coming down on Tuesday, so that takes care of the travelling to Brewesterwells.

Either somebody washed my car, or that deluge we had yesterday did it;  it's really clean.... and

polished looking.   "Strong winds and heavy rain" is the forecast for tomorrow, with "light rain and moderate breeze" on Saturday.    There's a "Yellow Warning - possible", that includes Fife, active from 06.00 tomorrow morning through to 15.00 on Saturday afternoon.    The West of Scotland is to get the worst of the weather;  hopefully we will just get the 'tail end'  of it.

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...
