Breezy but dry ....

26th October 2026 (Monday)     06.15 ..... Sunrise is at 07.05 so it's still dark, with a moderate Southwesterly  breeze.   Heavy rain is forecast to move in by mid morning.  Iain set off for home at 05.50, which is why I am 'up';  however I'm going back to bed for a couple of hours, to let the central heating warm up Ivy before I have a shower!

10.45    I'm 'up'(at 07.45) and ready for some mild action!    The sky is overcast and the rain, that is mentioned in the weather forecast for KY9, can't be far away so I won't stray far from Ivy.   Oh...and, I have been watching the News!

The result of the election in Brazil is a surprise;  and also good for the Amazon Rain Forest!   There's no doubt that the defeated candidate (Bolsonoro) will make governing Brazil hard, but that is expected from ultra Right Wing politicians nowadays. The Student led movement in Serbia was another surprise election result;  and  move away from Right Wing politics.  It will be interesting to see how the Student led movement get on governing Serbia..    When you think about it;  people, of all ages the World over, are fed up with extreme politicians from both Left and Right.   That can only be good for Democracy, Peace and the Planet!

11.05    The rain  reached the Centre of the Universe (The Royal Burgh of Earlsferry) at 11.00!   'Morning coffee' time!

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...

12th June 2026 (Friday)     09.30 ..... It's a lovely morning... and a good drying day!     Michael and Janice will be getting ready to go to Uckfield Station.   Me? .... I had the best night's unbroken sleep in years last night:  I put the light out at 22.45 and woke up at 06.45!     And I had a long hot shower so I'm feeling rested, and  'playful'  this morning.    That said I have the car to 'worry' about;  however the garage will take care of that, and I should get it back in plenty of time to go for Janice and Michael.  Unfortunately I couldn't do the shopping I wanted to do!    That will have to be done tomorrow.     10.00    Apart from putting the downie inside it's cover, Michael and Janice have a bed to fall into tonight!   I'm going to celebrate that by having morning coffee! 11.30     The car is back at the gate.    I...
