    Morning.

    Dry.

    Yellow white sky to the north, blue skies to the south.

    Warmer in here at 17 deg.

    994 mBar and 59% RH.

    Monday.

    Telex machine had a spring clean over the weekend.

    Curiously there was a clap of thunder a few minutes ago.

    Confirmed by the lightning map.

    <hiatus>

    Walk walked in sunshine.

    Judging by the state of things there was a fair amount of rain over the last 48 hours.

    Still sunny now.

    Lunch: poached tomato and scrambled egg on Morrisons sunflower and pumpkin seed toast (crust, thick), yellow corner yog, bramble jelly sandwich on Morrisons wholemeal sunflower and spelt bread, 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.

    Afternoon spent potching on the tin shed, replaced bottom third of door jamb and put a concrete fillet inside and outside.

    Afternoon Entertainment: Trucking Hell x 2 on Paramount.

    Tea (once that's finished at 18:00): more of yesterday's roast lamb.

    Entertainment: Filthy Britain SOS on 5* at 21:00 plus whatever else I can find that's suitably amusing.

    "Casino Royale (2006)" with that Daniel Craig chap.

    It's rather better than the 1967 version with David Niven and Peter Sellers.

    Some of the Filthy Britain thing is in sunny Swansea.

    I'm really not innerested in high stakes poker games.

    Kill someone FFS.

        Morning denizens

        After a rainy night, clear blue sky and sunshine out; 9°C at the moment but possibly reaching 11° later

            Morning.

            The sky is blue and it is 11 degrees.

            Should be raining according to my weather app.

            But it isn't yet!

                    Lunch is a hotdog (just one left in the packet now).

                    The forecast rain has arrived on time and is doing its thing in an enthusiastic manner.

                      ... I'll be closer to the front of the queue for a vaccine.

                      In other news, since I'm mostly not working this week, took The Dog (tw) for a big walk earlier, wrote a load of Christmas cards and then the post arrived, which included the antibody test kit.

                      Still waiting for the promised drugs.
                      Also, I dipped the oil at the weekend to discover that we are at about 5%, not the 40% I thought we were at. Phoned the oil co and they said delivery was coming tomorrow.
