And here we are again, again.
Morning.
Dry.
Cloudy.
Sunless but at least it's not dark out there.
16.7 deg in here.
1011 mBar, in Hg, 54% RH.
Tuesday apparently, but at least I wasn't so confused that it took five minutes to work that out.
<hiatus>
This early morning concert was brought by Hawkwind, being their 1972 epic "Doremi Latidoh" and the earlier 1971 epic "In search of space".
Only 50 years old & counting.
I prefer "Doremi" for some unknown reason, "Master of the Universe" being the favourite on the other CD (or album as we used to term such things back in the mists of time, like).
<hiatus>
TV Times apurchased once I'd been allowed into the post office due to too many people being in there, though invisible to me, hidden behind some shelves of comestibles.
Walk walked in the wan sunshine and increasing greyness.
Didn't seem excessively polleny this morning.
Mildly inneresting thing on R4: "Dare to Repair" with a brief mention of Tim Hunkin.

Brief mention of the control freakery of Apple Inc.
Lunch: Heinz lentil & ham soup with Morrisons wholemeal sunflower & spelt bread, bramble jelly sandwich on Morrisons sunflower and pumpkin seed crust, red pippy corner yog, 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.
Entertainment: "Discovering William Holden" on Sky Arts.
Must watch "The Wild Bunch (1969)" again.
Abandoned Engineering on Yesterday: film sets: Star Wars, Hudsucker Proxy, Hacksaw Ridge, and something else I've forgotten, oh yes, that Japanese coal mine on an island that got used on a Bond film I've never watched.
Trucking Hell S1 E7 wherein Rory failed to feature, though the Leicester bus station did, plus the 16 ton thing that fell off a lowloader & brought the M1 to a halt for hours, fortunately without killing anyone.
Tea: Tesco unchunky breaded haddock, the last of the tinned fruit salad, a yog, 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.
Entertainment: dunno yet.
Tudur Owen's TV flashbacks.
"Apollo 13 (1995)" with Tom Hanks, Gary Sinese, Bill Paxton, Kevin Bacon, Ed Harris, et al.
They're about to stir an oxygen tank.
I don't think it ends well.
<hiatus>
Inneresting film.
There are two commentaries, one by the Lovells, the other by the director Ron Howard.
