    Morning all

    It was still quite dark when I got up but it's brighter now. Overcast and currently 3 degrees. Forecast high of 6. Currently dry and looks like it will stay that way all day. Cloud cover will keep the frost off. Barometer has dropped further to 966 mBar.

    First coffee almost done. First meeting imminent.

              I'm dreaming of a White Xmas.

              Dry.

              Blue sky with white fluffy clouds.

              Hints of sun.

              Colder at 13.6 in here.

              982 mBar and 64%.

              Friday.

              Yesterday's jabs have knocked me sideways.

              Smalls in the WM.

              Smalls out of the WM and into the TD.

              Shirts in the WM.

              <hiatus>

              Walk walked.

              It started off sunny with a blue sky, then a squall blew in and it rained in a half hearted sort of way.

              Snow on the hills further up the valley, there's tidy then boyo.

              Didn't get particularly wet.

              Interment underway at the cemetery as I passed by on the way up.

              Two walkers observed walking around the top pond, other than that it was quiet until halfway down when 3 cars and a tanker went by.

              Still raining.

              Shirts out of the WM.

              Cottons into the WM.

              Smalls out of the TD in "36" minutes according to the random number generator.

              Sun's out.

              Smalls out of the TD.

              Shirts into the TD.

              <hiatus>

              Cottons out of the TD and airing on the banisters.

              Now watching "Trucking Hell" on Paramount.

              Tanker with 13k litres of h2so4 turned over on the a1.

              Tea: Tesco chunky breaded haddock. Tesco one person xmas pud with custard (that boiled over much to my delight), 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.

              Entertainment: More Trucking Hell.

              Walking Scotland's Lost Railways.

                Also currently snowing in Bainbridge (different Dale so worth reporting) plus Mrs Eek is in the office today so is very excited.

                The fact she is mainly in the office because she needs a very big table to sort out her latest quilt wasn't mentioned as she requested permission to go in today.

                    Second coffee made. Croissant in the oven.

                      2nd coffee consumed along with a couple of slices of toast.

                      Snowing harder now and starting to settle on cars and lawns. Big fat flakes coming down steadily.

                      Dog had her breakfast, looked out of the dog flap and retreated back to bed where she steadfastly remains.
