Nice day ....

12th May 2026  (Tuesday)     16.15 .... Although, breezy (NW) with a few showers, it has been a

lovely, mostly sunny day; and it hasn't been cold.    I went to Methil as planned, dropping into Alice's HQ to have morning coffee before going to Methil Library Library to have my hearing aids 'services'.   The servicing is done by hearing aid wearers, that have been  taught how to do the servicing.    In fact the gentleman at the table was having his hearing aid serviced by a trainee.    I was next in the,  and, (after filling in a form) all that I had to have done was have mew tubes that connect the aid(s) to the ear mould(s) replaced;  they harden and become inflexible and have to be replace approximately every 4 months.

By the way Methil Library is a  lovely, Art Deco building, on Wellesley Road.   I'll take a few photographs (of the outside) the next time I'm along there.

Alice and I then went back to 'Alice's HQ', and had another cuppa before going to Leven to do the wee bit of shopping.    From the Car Park (Sainsbury's) I could see a heavy shower over Largo Law, and promptly thought about the washing I'd hung out.

Shopping done we went back to Alice's and had lunch  followed by coffee, before I set of home;  dropping Alice off, near her hairdresser, on the way.   I arrived back at Ivy in time to take in the washing, about five minutes before one of the showers;  short but wet, came across.    By that time, the washing was in 'The Hutte'!    And so was I!   

The shower didn't last more than five minutes, so I went into Ivy and put the messages away, before catching up with the 'News'.   The 'News'? .... it's all about the Labour Party doing something silly.   


20.30    It's a nice evening, but the air is chillier than it was a in the afternoon;  and it's to be colder for the next few days.    I've enjoyed myself today;  it hasn't been a hard day, but getting the hearings aids done, and annoying Alice,  means it has been a successful one.

I don't understand the Labour Party MP's:  they're like a 'plague' of Lemmings that have found a cliff to jump off!

The Prime Minister got them the massive majority in Parliament;  give him a chance to govern;  even if it does mean a few 'U' turns on the way!   For the sake of the country. and the Labour Party, let him get on with the job!

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...
