    Morning "standup" done. Might go and make a bit of toast, as that worked well for me yesterday; I can hear the "bong" sound from Teams when I'm in the kitchen, should anybody get in touch

      Neighbour asked me to check my greenhouse, it's favourite snoring place, for his missing cat couple of days ago. He found it via some online thing at a farm couple of miles away.

      Got an email this morning from an .ru source:

      Äëÿ Âàñ õîðîøèå ñòàòüè îò 1500 äî 14000 çíàêîâ, óíèêàëüíîñòü íå íèæå 80%.

      Öåíà íà ëþáóþ ñòàòüþ 19.90 ðóá íå çàâèñèìî îò êîëè÷åñòâà çíàêîâ.

      etc

      Looks interesting

        Currently 11°C and blue skies. Expected to get to 16°C. After a few false starts, spring has sprung. And now we're allowed to meetings indoors with up to 10 people, my wife and I will have lunch with the grandkids (and their parents).

          Not feeling especially hungry but felt like I ought to eat something so a croissant has been dug out of the freezer and put into the oven.

          Too many meetings today, I'd like to actually get some work done!

            Ran it through this encoding converter with Cyrillic (Windows-1251) as the output encoding and it gave me:
            Для Вас хорошие статьи от 1500 до 14000 знаков, уникальность не ниже 80%. Готовы к публикации с минимальной доработкой под Ваш сайт. Цена на любую статью 19.90 руб не зависимо от количества знаков.

            So I ran that through Google Translate and got:
            For you, good articles from 1500 to 14000 characters, uniqueness is not less than 80%. Ready for publication with minimal revision for your site. The price for any article is 19.90 rubles, regardless of the number of characters.

                Well, you already have gone for it, but you know what I mean
                You sometimes seem to forget most people here are the type so things involving big boats, trains and space is of General interest.

                    oi haven't you heard Nick now has gainful employment suffering powerpointless. This morning Finance asked me to send in "excel normal format" (its linked tables) and only show data from 2020 (filter already applied) scary at the level of excel knowledge.

                      Breakfast was the last of the Kedgeree which was really nice.

                      Lunch will probably be cheese / ham toasted on Granary.

                      Dinner is PAPRIKASH of lamb hearts. 3 large portions made (family wont eat something so exotic) , add a load of veg and some red wine happy days!
