Bonnie Autumn morning ....

7th November 2025 (Friday)      09.40 ....  We have a lovely, sunny and warm,

'Autumnal mists'kind of morning ;  absolutely gorgeous.     I've been busy hanging out a washing but there isn't much of a drying breeze just now, so I don't think it will dry very fast;  unless the wind freshens.    I'll have another cuppa before going up to Elie to pick up my prescription.... and a paper!   Might even go to the harbour!


15.15    My word .... this has been a really gorgeous ' Indian Summer' like day.... and I have enjoyed it.  As planned Im went to Elie to get a paper and pick up my prescription.   Of course, with it being a bonnie day I went down to the harbour. and enjoyed myself with the camera.      Steve was there sorting out one of the yachts.   I enjoyed chatting about the boats:  and he was saying that the yachts active on the water  last summer and he thinks they will be even more active in 2026.   That's really good news.

I had intended going to the filling station at Colinsburgh, but Cath was saying that the work on Colinsburgh Main street should be finished this weekend;  so, as I still have over a half tank of fuel, i decided to leave filling up until sometime next week.   I was back to Ivy by morning coffee time.

After lunch I decided to get 'The Buggy' out and have a  turn 'roond the Ferry'.   When I got onto the road U decided to go East for a change, but only as far as Siward Lane.   I did that and went down Siward Lane to get a photie from the bents.   From here I did the normal run up the Ferry High Street and Chapel Greed Road to the turning going then home.   Taking loads of photographs on the way.

19.25    This has been a busy, and enjoyable,  day for this 'Boy' ;  I didn't even have a siesta after lunch. 
In fact I haven't even had a cat nap.   I am feeling tired and sleepy now, so it will be an early night in bed, with my book.   It's one of Kirsty's, Donna Leon books.    Donna Leon lives in Venice, and her crime novels are set in Venice.   All very interesting and exciting.

7th May 2025 (Wednesday)    08.15 .... "Sunny intervals with a light breeze" is today's weather forecast for.... KY9, Ellon, Uckfield (Sussex) and London:  it's going to be a bonnie day all over the UK.  The breeze is from the Easterly direction so the East coast will be cooler; but it will be warm sheltered from the breeze.   It's a nice, peaceful kind of morning at Elie and Earlsferry:  the sky is a mix of fluffy clouds and blue bits, and the temperature is 11.6C just now.   3.3C was the minimum overnight.  20.30     I'd been reading about the cyber attack on M & S, Harrods and the Co-op... so, feeling inquisitive, for my morning 'mission' I decided to go to The Store (Ainster) and see how the 'attack' was affecting our local 'Store'.   The first thing I noticed was the car park wasn't as busy as normal and all the Disabled spaces were empty.  Inside the store,  the empty vegetable and fruit...

The morning after 'Storm Eowyn' ....

25th  January 2025 (Saturday)     08.30 .....  Well .... that was one frisky wind yesterday Candlelight evening....Unfortunately not a romantic one! afternoon;   from 14.30 to 17.30 it was absolutely ferocious.    And I got some damage at Ivy Cottage;  a ridge tile blew off, slid down the roof and broke the rhone (guttering I thinks it's called now) so that will have to be repaired.  A Red Warning of wind means damage and that's what we have;  not only at Ivy but at other places around Elie and Earlsferry.... and over the whole area of the red Warning.   I only hope no one was injured by stuff being blown around in the wind.    It's the worst wind I have ever experienced in Earlsferry.   I have never felt so useless .... and helpless.    My neighbour Mathew came round to see if I was OK.... which I really appreciated;  I enjoyed talking to him.... it calmed me down a bit.  ...

3rd October 2025 (Friday)     10.30 .... It's a quiet morning; after a lot of overnight rain this is the calm before the storm.... 'Storm Amy', that is going to bring strong winds and heavy rain, this afternoon and Saturday.  It could be a good drying morning!   Anyway all is still at the moment.   I'm going to see if I can rescue a few of the apples that are still attached to the tree.    Actually I think I'll have morning coffee first. 04 12.30    We had a power cut  (45 minutes) last night ,so I unplugged the computer.    We got the torches and candles out, chatted for a while then went to bed.
