Sunny ....

8th March 2026 (Sunday)     10.45 .... We have a lovely sunny morning here, but there is a light

chilly breeze;  however sheltered from that, it's warm.    It might even be warm enough to have my coffee outside.   Actually , my morning began with a migraine, so that will hamper my activities.    I've taken the pills,  and will have morning coffee after this update;  then probably have a catnap.   

I see that President Trump has criticised our PM, because the UK did not take part in the US and Israeli attack, on Iran, from day one.    I wonder why I thought of both WWI and WWII?    As for Tony Blair's criticism, there's only one word to say ...."Iraq"!    Now off to have morning coffee.

19.45     I haven't been out anywhere today;  not even in the car.    The air was chilly,  but there was something else in it that hit the tubes; and had me using the 'bloo' inhaler more then usual.   having said that I hung out a washing:  it didn't dry completely, but I'll iron it and hang it in front of a radiator.

I had the Paralympics to watch so that kept me happy;  and I did some research.   Actually Iv'e had a busier day than I thought I would;  having started off with a migraine.

The Iran war continues unabated;  and the big B1 American bombers are here to do some serious demolition.    And there's possibility that some B52's might be coming;  they are huge!    I remember one went over while I was painting the 'The Craw':  the one that I miss every time I drive into Anstruther!    Anyway the bomber must have been doing s display at RAF Leuchars, because the bomb doors were open:  and it was low... as in very low.    Nor only was it low it was very quiet;  I guess it must have been 'free wheeling'.   I remember wondering if it was alright, but if flew out over Ainster harbour  and presumably back to Leuchars.   An ominous looking 'beast'!

Plan for tomorrow?    I usually feel really good after a migraine day, and I'm hoping that's the case

tomorrow.    Light rain/drizzle is mentioned in the forecast for KY9, but only for morning. time.

Quiet morning ....

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...

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.

Windy and wet .....

4th August 2025 (Monday)    08.45 ....  It's breezy with light rain just now;  but the rain is going to move away and the wind freshen to 'gale', with sunny intervals and squally showers, by midday.   There could interesting clouds, and stormy seas.    I won't be going out on the bike!    High tide is at 11.20;  there will be an abundance of fresh air on the beach today.  11.00  The wind is freshening, from the SW, as can be seen in the photo of the 'Glenfuir' flags (Swiss, USA and Jersey).    Sunny intervals are starting to come over, so it's a bonnie enough day now, albeit breezy:  F5 - 6 with stronger gusts now and again. 19.30  It has certainly been a wild old day, but the wind is moderating, and tomorrow will be much quieter.   It was F8 - 9 at times out on the bay.   Which is why HMS Iron Duke (Type 23 frigate) is sheltering off Elie and Earlsferry.      HMS Iro...
