Wall to wall blue sky ....

22nd August 2026  (Saturday)    I'll start by wishing Janice a "Happy Birthday":   have a
lovely weekend at the New Forest. xxx 

10.45 .... we have a 'wall to wall' blue sky just now; so I can't tell from which direction the breeze is coming, because there are no clouds.   However, the Flag on the third green suggests a light breeze from the NW just now. 

 My breathing is reasonable this morning;  but that last cold I had, has left it's mark there's no doubt about that.  However, I'm looking forward to next Friday, when I have an appointment with the Asthma Nurse.   I can't go jogging like this!.... but I'm feeling 'playful'.

16.00    It's too hot to sit in The Hutte, so I came in to play with the few photographs I got this morning when up at Elie.   From that you will have deduced that we have a lovely sunny day here.  There's more cloud about now;  but the sun  doesn't hide behind a cloud very often.   

Elie High Street isn't the place to be in the middle of the day;  it's chaotic.  That said the bloke in the car travelling from the East stopped to let me out;  he wanted the parking place I was vacating.   Which was handy  ;  for both of us.

20.00    I've been a bit more active today;  and didn't fall asleep as often as I have been doing for the past few days.   When I think about I didn't do a Soduko today;  that's bad.  Got to keep the auld brain active.   Better do something about that tomorrow.

Tomorrow? .... the weather forecast is 'more of the same' for KY9 tomorrow.   And it's to be a more

comfortable temperature for sleeping tonight.    However I'll still have to get out of bed at 04.00 to take the throat infection medicine.

Today's photographs:  Top Kinneuchar - the Balbuthie road junction corner,  and Middle - lone cyclist.   When I see a lone cyclist I always want to ask them where they started from.  When I was 'lone' biking, when seeing me in Stirling, Callander, Perth, Edinburgh Dundee etc most folk wouldn't think I'd started off from Earlsferry.   It's amazing the distance you can cover on a bike.   And Bottom - Elie High Street.

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...

1st November 2019 (Friday)       07.00 .... Mmmmm ... it’s cauld and wet Mmmmm .... not the perfect weather for the beach. as per weather forecast;   a real dreich morning.      I am feeling considerably brighter than the weather and looking forward to morning coffee in ‘arbour ‘ouse..... then spending the rest of the day mostly working on the computer, and doing Soduko’s.    I might bake Melting Moments..... baking and sampling 'MM's is always a cheering occupation on a dreich day. 09.00    The sky to the West is showing promising changes in greyness;   could we be in for a few bright spells?    “Light rain showers and a gentle breeze” is the forecast for today.... but a bright spell would be very welcome.    I haven’t been anywhere further than the pavement when manoeuvring the bucket into its ‘ready for emptying’ position.   I’ll have another cuppa then ‘loup’ into the car an...

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.
