Morning denizens

Another gloriously sunny, yet seriously cold day

The temperature is forecast to reach the vertiginous heights of 7°C sometime shortly before sunset, whereupon it will plummet again. But it still looks nice out there

Ahh window weather.

Yeah, less so here. It's a good job i'm a hardy and stoic Yorkshireman cos otherwise i'd have been dead miserable standing on the side of a pennine football pitch in the sleety snow this morning...

Unpleasantly cold, raw day.

It was vaguely sunny earlier, but it's been wet & unpleasant this afternoon.

The alder wood that I'm burning on what passes for a fire isn't really cutting the mustard on a giving out heat front, it must be said.

First fire I've lit for yonks.

Spag bol for tea, yum.

Along with some Morrisons BBQ chicken legs which I bought for a change.

I've cleaned the deep fat fryer, which is one of those moderately grotty tasks that I've been putting off for at least a month because I simply couldn't summon up the energy to deal with it while at ClientCo.

I ended up contemplating the idea of replacing the kitchen sink, and associated units and worktops. I don't suppose I'll ever actually get around to it, and I have no qualifications or experience in such matters; but it would be good

For now, I should probably just stick with stuff I can handle by delegation, like getting the old fridge freezer carted away

Monday will be the start of my first weeks enforced furlough time.
I'm liking the regime of Mr Fitz, here's the start of a bit of "gardening" leave

Chicken pasanda with rice and a naan for dinner

Autocorrect wants to change "pasanda" to "passband", which doesn't even look like a real word to me

Ah: "A frequency band within which signals are transmitted by a filter without attenuation." Sounds more like one of Zeity's things

Can I just say, apropos of nothing but an earworm that turned up a couple of days ago as the result of remembering a lift I got when I was hitching south for Summer Solstice some time in the early 1990s, that I ******* hate Simply Red? Ta.

Now that's off my chest, goodnight all

P.S. Been pissing down here
