Afternoon denizens

Cloudy out, but tending more towards scenic fluffiness with the odd bit of blue sky than grey overcast; though I think that's changing to the latter now

Currently 13°C, which is as good as it'll get, and yesterday's plummeting barometers have rebounded to 1010/1018mB.

Some OU work done.

Last bit of laundry in the WM (jeans).

Dull and depressing out so I'm not going to go to the shops.

Was watching TV earlier and my heart rate stabilised at 138bpm for about 5 minutes. The Wife (tm) wasn’t too concerned as she’s used to that now.

Fame at last!

Oddly enough, the one asking the question went on to do a PhD, the other one, I have no idea what happened to him after he graduated.

Most memorably had to be shown how a BNC connector worked in case he wrenched the front off a scope. .

These places don't just stay open on your whim, you know.

Hang on, er, yes they do.

I'm sure they'll cope

Instead, I went full-on haute cuisine: fried spam, chips and beans

It's been decades since I last had that and it made a nice change, though I don't think it'll become a regular thing
