'Morning. CBS with scattered showers on the distance. Nice rainbow though.
Bleary-eyed having reverted to by youth and played a video game until too late into the night. No Man's Sky; thanks for asking... games are just so complicated these days; whatever happened to just running around shooting stuff?
Wet. Light drizzle ongoing. Currently 11 degrees, forecast high of 16 around lunchtime. Looks like there will be a break in the rain around lunchtime when the sun may make an appearance, before the rain clouds return. Barometer up to 992 mBar.
Still very tired and generally meh. Struggled to get out of bed this morning. First coffee has been inhaled.
Doing an easy job of spreadsheet comparison where some chap claimed I couldn't do it without runing his precious work. He literally claimed that me making any form of update would result in all his work needing to be binned. I said it was a simple look up. He claimed to know how to do such a thing but that was impossible to achieve when the cells contain more than one reference. I mentioned I'd been programming in Excel for over 10 years and he countered by saying he'd been doing the same for over 20. Yet he evidently doesn't know how to do string manipulation. Amateur.

WTF would you argue the point - you just save a copy of the data and send that to the person asking for it.
