UPDATE: I still haven't made the bed

Mine is done

[xoggoth]

Don't make mine until just before I get into it. Supposed to reduce the number of dust mites.

Doesn't stop the Dinosaurs though.

I would have thought the best way to not get dust mites in your bed is to not sleep in it

Mine is done

Mine too now

More 1978 animal fun, this time on Sunday evening as nature and the BBC intended, with S1E3 of All Creatures Great and Small, It Takes All Kinds.

And then onwards to the 1980s and a somewhat different world with S2E4 of The Americans, A Little Night Music

Goodnight all

[ladymuck]

Morning all

Dull and overcast but dry. It's 7 degrees ('feels like' 4) and is expected to reach 11 degrees and turn sunny as the day progresses. Low chance of rain. Breezy. Barometer down to 1030 mBar.

Today's Kantar diary fact is:
Captain Albert Berry performs the first parachute jump from an aeroplane 1912

Morning. Sunny but cold down here. Slight frost overnight, currenlty 4°C, expected to reach 13°C in the afternoon.

Neighbours in the apartment block up the hill from my house are steadily moving out in prep for the redevelopment. Quite sad really. Some have been there for more than 20 years.

Grandsprogs are over, but I'm working.

Potched a bit in the shed next door examining Strangelove Pater's and Strangelove GrandPater's collection of chisels and such like.

Made a half hearted attempt to sort same into some sort of useful order.

Then I washed the cars, which, it must be said, were filthy.

Can't remember the last time I did it, so it might be longer than a year.

Well the search function is now totally & utterly fecked.

That's a feature over many years, though the last one could be persuaded to do something.

This one, no fecking chance.

Tea: more of the roast beef, plus some custard (not on the roast beef but purely due to a surfeit of milk (rather than lamphreys) ), 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.

Entertainment:

Deep Space 9: "Trials and Tribble-ations" being the one where they go back to STOS.

Coast Great Guides: South Wales.

NCIS S16 E6 "beneath the surface" which includes a CIA dude even more untrustworthy than Trent Kort.
