Dreich morning ....

15th November 2026 (Sunday)     10.15 .... We have an overcast and wet November day;  the 
kind of day we expect in month of November.   The bright and sunny ones we have had this November, though very welcome,  is not normal November weather.     Anyway, this morning  we have typical, dreich November weather;  not a morning for being 'out and about'.   I haven't been outside yet, but fed 'Blob' at the back door;  'he' was in a good mood!    Hopefully the sky will brighten up in the afternoon!

Today is only a blip in our 'new' November weather:  tomorrow is going to to be 'bright and sunny'!  Unfortunately there's another 'blip' bringing more rain on Tuesday!    

20.00    This has been a proper November  overcast and damp.   But, forget the weather I have enjoyed myself:  I did a lot of work on the computer;  and watched Scotland v Australia from Murrayfield, in the afternoon.   Scotland won 15 - 12.   That filled in a good bit of the afternoon.   By the time the rugby had finished the rain had moved away,  and we even had a bit of blue in the sky before sunset.

It was amazing watching the top part of the SpaceX rocket docking with 'Chop Sticks' for the first time:  that was a 'bullseye' if ever there was one.   It's like something out of 'Dan Dare' ,in the 'Eagle' comic 70 years ago;  only this is real!    

Park Place, Elie.

The weather forecast is good for tomorrow, but cold overnight; because there's a weather warning for'ice' that includes Fife.   I imagine it will be the high ground, such as Glenrothes.   It was a cold place to work in the wintertime.   Actually I'm thinking of going to Methil to annoy Alice tomorrow;  I'll check the Fife Weather can site to see where the ice is.

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...
