    First time I've noticed a touch of condensation on the inside of the bedroom window.

    Winter is on its way.

    Oh, and the CBS and sun seems to have departed hence.

    <hiatus>

    Lunch prep done.

    Beef (big lump of) in oven.

    About to begin the Sunday vaccing.

    CBS no longer, now it's looking pretty grey across the valley, boyo, though it's still sunny this side.

    Quite cool out there too.

    Winter's on its way, remember.

    Brrrrrr.

    I'll have to find another religious jumper since the holes in the other one have joined up to the extent that the moths are complaining.

      Afternoon denizens

      Looking very Simpsonesque out; not too hot at 17°C, with a light breeze if the atmosphere in the vicinity of the kitchen window is anything to go by

      Inside, the temperature has now worked its way down to around 22.5°

            Yesterdays shenanigans involved a day spent with a coach load of other pissheads Real Ale Enthusiasts on a trip around various hostelries sampling the assorted beverages on offer.
            my worst nightmare.
            going to a pub, gasping for a cold beer, only to find the staff being monopolised by a crowd of tweedy corduroy clad duffers asking for tasters of granny toadsuckers old atrocious ale, or some such.

            i need a lie down now.

            oh, dear.

              Lunch was roast beef (Morrisons, reduced).

              It was mediocre but definitely a lot less meh than the "roast" lamb of last week.

              Cooked the whole joint & then sliced it up & put bits in the freezer for a. n. other time.

              Still sunnyish, but definitely Simpsonsesque and it's a lot chillier than it's been.

              Sunday afternoon shop done & dusted.

              The Remains of The Day is mine to do with as I wish.

              Coogan's Bluff (1968) - IMDb

              It was inneresting to see a helicopter land on the top of a building in New York.

              They haven't done that since one fell off the roof.
              The remaining hour and 10 minutes just got watched now.

              Remarkably grainy transfer, no detectable restoration work whatsoever.

              9 November 1967 - 31 December 1967
              I thought it looked a bit chilly.
