Tea has been M&S non-chunky breaded haddock, with chips and beans. I tried the thing of snapping one of the fillets in half to make a bigger portion, and it worked out just right
Another TV-free night (apart from Ambulance during dinner), as I continued reading They Thought They Were Free. It's an interesting exploration of the attitudes, beliefs, motivations and so on of ordinary Germans under Nazism, based on spending a year or so in the early 1950s getting to know a number of them from a small town well enough that they would speak freely, or fairly freely, about their lives between 1933 and 1945.
The rain continued here for a while, but seems to have moved on now
Overcast here but fairly bright. There is a slight dampness from the overnight rain. Current temperature is 17 degrees with a forecast high of 21 later. The sun isn't expected to make much of an appearance. Low chance of further rain fall. Barometer has fallen to 1015 mBar. Light northerly breeze.
