    Well good morning all

    It's a bank holiday but I'm working as, well, why not?

    Blue sky with fluffy clouds here and there. Currently 14 degrees with a forecast high of 18 this afternoon. Cloud cover set to increase as the day passes but low chance of rain. Barometer up to 1019 mBar. I was going to say 1020 mBar but it's not quite there.

    First coffee drunk. Croissant in the oven which will be accompanied by a second coffee when it's baked.

    Just remembered I didn't put the timer on!

    <scurries to the kitchen>

    Timer now on. It'll get an extra minute but won't be burnt (she hopes)

      When the fun stops, STOP.

          Morning.

          Woke up when it was dark realised it was a bank holiday and turned over.

          Bloody cold though nice and sunny.

                Came back from walk with loony lady 1 to find my front tyre flat. Took ages to pump up and then took it to local tyre shop who didn't find anything wrong with it. Been ok since. Can't think why anyone would have let it down in a public parking space by some woods.

                Technical oddities too. Used PowerShell to clear unwanted lines from a very large gpx file and found it was twice the size. Yet when I ran a comparison in Winmerge the modified file was as I expected, just the same as before but without the unwanted lines. Is there an evil spirit on my computer?
                Powershell by default saves files as Unicode rather than Ascii so it will be twice the size unless you tell it to use -Encoding ascii for the output

                    morning all
                    clear and bright today.
                    stayed up late watching the wailerfest on BBC4.
                    a bit too much rum, maybe.
                    oh, well.

                      Morning denizens

                      Sunny and Simpsonesque out, 14°C and rising but not very much, as it's due to get a bit cloudier this afternoon
