Cloud with sunny spells .... .....

6th April 2026 (Monday)       09.45 .... It's a nice, quiet kind of morning;  joggers joggin', golfers

golfin'.... a bonnie morning to be out and about.     There's only a light, breeze so it's cool but not cold;  I might actually venture up to the phone box to get a few shots of the golf course.    Although not a great ';drying day' I'm going to put a washing out;  that's the 'work' bit for today.

16 30    This has been a lovely Spring day, and I have been busy.   I decided to have a daunder to the phone box, but, feeling good, I went up to the seat at the 17th green.   The golf course was busy, it was a warm sunny day, and I was out with the camera,  and enjoying being out.

This is Easter Monday so the road was busy with holiday traffic.   Actually I've seen cars go down Ferry Road with bikes on the back, and suitcases on the roof rack.   Could this be holidaymakers starting their holiday today.   There's no doubt about it, Elie and Earlsferry are holiday destinations nowadays.   

I'm going to have a pre dinner coffee out in 'The Hutte'.... and I'll check on how the washing.   Funnily enough, although there isn't much of a drying wind, it was drying when I checked it a couple of hours ago.   And 'Blob' will be looking for his afternoon snack!

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...
