    Managed to reduce the number of open browser windows on here to ten. Probably no more than seventy or so actual pages open if I were to count the tabs

      Which is why I a not a great fan of the death penalty until we can do beyond any doubt.

      Problem nowadays is everyone is presented like that regardless of guilt.
      His principle problem was being black and in South Carolina.

      80 days from arrest to execution following a 2 hour trial.

      The chair really is barbaric, much as one might expect from the Septics.

        This thing is so underpowered & underrammed that more than 4 runs it out of memory and it pages like fury when swapping tabs.

        Now watching Sapphire & Steel.

        It's a haunted railway station this time.

        I'm struggling to remember why I thought it was quite good 40 years ago.

          Probably because of Joanna Lumley

          No telly to speak of here, but a further chunk of Bomber read

          There's been showers now and again, but they've stopped at the moment. Shame; I quite like hearing the pattering of the rain as I drift off to sleep.

          Goodnight all

                I forgot to trundle garden waste yesterday. 2 week wait now, although I might throw some on the compost heap and maybe burn some.

                  Morning all

                  Dry.

                  Sunny.

                  White sky with blue patches.

                  Colder.

                  18.9 degrees today in here, as against 24 earlier in the week.

                  Apparently it's Friday again, which explains why the smalls are about to leave the tender care of the WM & meet the TD.

                  <hiatus>

                  Smalls in the TD, shirts in the WM.

                    New ISP cutover this morning....

                    Sky to Vodafone - so far so good, though the range of the Voda-Router doesn't seem great...Ah well, after yesterday's PearsonVue debacle I shall take deep breaths and accept that I have "First-World Problems".
                    I was an IPSE Consultative Council Member, until the BoD abolished it. I am not an IPSE Member, since they have no longer have any relevance to me, as an IT Contractor. Read my lips...I recommend QDOS for ALL your Insurance requirements (Contact me for a referral code).

                      Morning denizens

                      A bit sunny from time to time in the east

                      This seems to be a temporary aberration though; there are traces of overnight rain, it's only 9°C out, quite windy, and there's a huge bank of ominous-looking cloud occupying much of the sky to the north and west. Rain due later, and it'll be very windy this afternoon even if there is a bit of token sunshine, it seems
