Morning all!

Grey and dull here. Very tired, couldn't get started this morning.

Spent some time continuing my current unending project of stripping the cellar walls so that I can tank them. My back hurts now.

Offspring are off school this week and I have the prospect of visiting in-laws Darn Sarf for three days. Joy.

Morning.

Tuesday.

Dry.

Sunny.

Blue sky.

Chilly in here at 13.8 deg, 12.5 deg in the kitchen & leanto.

999 mBar, 29.5 in Hg, 749.3 Torr, 14.489 psi, (up from 992 last night), 76% RH (GDR hair), 72% RH (Lidl electric).

Meanwhile on the 13th of September 2019 the site was flaky, NF was still lurgified but went shopping & bin trundling anyway, and the computer room at the library was much quieter because the Transport for Wales bus pass site had crashed the previous day due to the overwhelming demand from we coffin dodgers. Innerestingly enough said bus pass was recently renewed due to my not needing a coffin quite yet.

Several of my clocks are on Berlin Time seeing as they use DCF77 which is on CET and I've forgotten how to change it.

I don't bother changing the watches so they stay on GMT all year round.

Walk (unabbreviated) walked in the grey gloom, with it picking a bit at the res. First walk since Wednesday.

Lunch: scrambled egg & tomato etc.

Entertainment: NZ Motorway Cops. NZ Customs: the usual Chinese "sugar" which turns out to be "meats". Honey with extract of terrapin. Yum.

Freecell score: 100%, running average: 86%.

Oz customs: the usual Vietnamese & Chinese "foods", Chinese chap with 3000 cigarettes, some unfortunate septic chap who's been sending money to some "woman" living in Tasmania for the last 10 years then decides to visit her only to find that she'd left a couple of days before he arrived, quelle surprise & all that. Poor sod still thinks it's genuine on his way back through the Oz airport on the way to septicland where he lives with his mum. Ho hum.

Veronica Mars S1 E1: Pilot: no pilots were harmed in the making of this. Stone me it was made in 2004.

The Mentalist S2 E4 "Red Menace". The biker gang one with Jacob from "Lost".

Scotland Yard "The stateless man (1955)". (watched this one before though I have no recollection thereof). An unfortunate stateless DP framed for murdering his girlfriend.

Maigret and the Princess S12 E2 (2003). Ah, the unrequited love one.

Forgot to mention that I heard a woodpecker on the walk.

Not changed all my 90 million clocks yet.

Morning all
It appears I may have been snoring loudly last night as The Wife slept in the 2nd bedroom.
A shorter walk was walked this morning, as The Dog still hasn't worked out that the clocks have gone forward and just relies on the amount of light, so only 5.18km walked earlier.

Morning denizens

Patchy cloud out but brighter, and potentially sunny later, though only briefly. It's 7°C and may soar as high as 14°, while the barometers are inching their way back up at 988/996mB

[NickFitz]

No more telly tonight, but I read a bit more of H. G. Wells' short stories

Goodnight all

[WTFH]

Very very frightening!

Gallileo

[NickFitz]

Cumulo Nimbus!

Very very frightening!

Tea has been a roast pork dinner

This was a joint of pork that I'd frozen shortly before the freezer became unwell, so I wasn't sure if it would still be all right. Turned out it was fine though

And this was accompanied by the latest episode of Forensics: The Real CSI

Morning all, local time 1012

Cumulo Nimbus! Some grumpy looking clouds but no rain forecast. Still warm and mostly sunny. Currently 24 degrees with a high of 25 expected.

Last day in Mexico.
