    I'd shoot 'em all.
    Can't we just do what we would do to the Chinese and nuke them all?

        WFH again today

        Breakfast was a slice of buttered toast with marmite. Using up some slightly stale sourdough left over from the weekend.

        Elevensies was a nice plum danish from the shop round the corner that was bought yesterday.

        Lunch was a chocolate and walnut brownie from a batch I made at the weekend.

        Afternoon tea comprised two dark chocolate digestives.

        A good and healthy diet, me thinks.

        This evening HWMBO is cooking Osso Buco. He started it yesterday and it's been improving in the fridge overnight. Just the accompanying risotto to do today.

          Glorious afternoon.

          Spent some time "pruning" the gooseberry bushes.

          They'll never be the same again.

          After which I was tired and it was after 16:00 so I sat on the bench and he who would be Strangelove mog came along and sat on my knee.

          Next door's cat decided it was nice enough to spend some time in the garden and amazingly enough I managed to get the damn thing back in the house without it running away or getting run over.

          Tea was the last of the roast lamb from the weekend with the carrots & onions thing.

          Nice enough though I was just a tad heavy on the hot smoked paprika.

          Followed inevitably by 1.05 pints of good Glengettie tea.

          Once I've done the dishes it'll be time for yet more BTVS.

          When S3 is finished it becomes necessary to watch an ep of BTVS followed by an ep of Angel, something which was impossible in the UK when they were shown on tv, since even Sky didn't do the decent thing, never mind BTVS being on the Beeb and Angel on 4 (IIRC).
          When the fun stops, STOP.

              Messing about with footpath stuff again. My mappy thing now has lots of features including centring on an entered OS grid ref. Also places in my Excel list of places of interest automatically shows driving distance from home. Fixed initial daft error that showed my home as 4.6 miles from my home.

                “Off by one error?” “No, off by 4.6 miles error.”

                    dinner has been more of the chicken casserole, with grilled pitta bread.

                    watching 'who shot the sheriff?' on netflix.

                    'cos there is as usual, absolutely feck all worth watching on freeview.

                      Darn it. Calculated distances can be up to twice values you get when directly using Bing maps. Dunno why, coordinates are all correct in the xml. More to do, but at least distance from home is now 0.
