    HWMBO has arrived home.

    I had crunchy nut cornflakes for pudding (milk exp 7 Oct but perfectly fine).

    Stacked up some Ocado delivery slots for the next few weeks.

      Tonight's viewing was Hacksaw Ridge (2016), as it ceases to be "Included with Prime" in a couple of days. Excellent film, though the battle scenes on Okinawa are horrific. Second film I've watched this weekend that heavily featured rats chewing on mangled corpses

      Amazon have a section on their site listing films that are soon to leave Prime, but it's a bit of a pain to go through as it's (currently) twelve pages with sixteen items per page. I might write a scraper, running on AWS Lambda, to whiz through them and generate an RSS feed once a day, which can then be served from S3; it'd be handy for checking I'm not about to miss anything good

      Goodnight all

            Autumnal walk earlier, including a brief view of a very red sun.

              Morning all

              It was a bit dark when I got up, but now the sun's risen a bit it's reasonably bright despite the cloud cover. Currently 12 degrees and dry with a forecast high of 14 expected and a high chance of rain this evening. Barometer at 1016 mBar.

              Second coffee has just been made.

              Pain au raisin in the oven.

              Should I be concerned that I only had about 20 emails after a week off and most of those were meeting cancellation notices for things I wouldn't have attended as I was away?
