Light cloud .....

 5th October 2026 (Monday)      09.30 .... It's a breezy, grey morning in KY9;   at least it's dry,
and nice enough for going 'out and about'.    I'll have short walk after morning coffee;  the wind is actually quite frisky (F3) so I might stay around the house's;  it will be too blustery out in the open.   Work? ..... that will be making up 'JB's bed!

17.00   We have the the Gas people  working  in Williamsburgh;  actually there's only one hole, so not very interesting.   The workmen were there so I couldn't have a browse round the hole.

I went as far as the Old Dairy on my walk this morning, the into Rotten Row and up to the Golf Course.   There was a fair old breeze blowing ,so I didn't hang around up there;  and I couldn't see any golfers on the course, do nae chance of any action shots.   About this time we had a few spits ans spots of rain.  Irene was working in the garden, but by the time I'd wandered along Cavell Place she had gone.   Probably to make Ken a cuppa!   

After lunch I switched on the TV, to get the weather forecast and catch up wi' the News.    The B - 1 (Lancer) and B - 52 (Stratofortress)  bombers leaving Fairford to go back to their home bases in the USA, was surprising news.   Anyway I got the weather forecast, and most of the news:  then had my after lunch cat - nap.   I always watch the early evening BBC News channel at 18.00.

On waking went out to The Hutte, by this time we were in the middle of a sunny spell,  did two Soduko's;  then attacked Maggie's Ivy bush... that grew from a small  piece of decorative ivy she bought for her window boxes!    She didn't expect it to survive the winter!    It has survived a wheen o' winters!   The new 'plan' is to try to cut it off at the roots are and kill it off. 

22.30    This has been a funny old day;  I haven't achieved as much as I would have liked, but  that happens when we get older.  I still have the urge to do things, but it's the 'doing' that's the hard bit.    I'm good for typing and working on the computer;  and making a 'plan' for every day!   Happy happy 'me'.

Tomorrow I'm going to make an appointment to have my hair cut;  it's beginning to feel uncomfortable.

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...
