Have to meet HWMBO over Old Street way soon. Not sure I fancy the Piccadilly then Northern Lines but neither do I want to curtail the underground journey in favour of a bus (INKSPE!)/walking.Comment

Temperature in here has just gone from 26.7° to 26.8° which is disappointing, as I was hoping it might at least hold steady with the sun having gone around to the other side of the building

Just been out the back, where I spotted a cinnabar moth caterpillar (one of those tiger-like ones, yellow and black hoops) making its way over the dusty cobbles, which aren't exactly its natural environment.
They feed on ragwort, but most of the ragwort out there has died away over the last couple of years (possibly due to being eaten by cinnabar moth caterpillars). Hunting around, I found a surviving plant down near the doctor's back gate, so I've given the caterpillar a lift over to it. Probably means there'll be no ragwort at all next year, but there you go
