    Nearly there. Need to decide whether to get the Tube or walk down to the hotel…

      20 minutes to clocking off time! I hope the electrician hurries up and finishes soon. He's currently worrying about the quality of dimmer switches

        Walked in the end; one of those typical London scenarios where I know the area I’m in and know the area I’m going to, so it’s easy enough to figure out how they join up

        I’d forgotten I splashed out on a Premier Plus room, which comes with a Nespresso machine. So now I need to Google the instructions for it

          I had originally booked a Premier Plus room. Then I changed the booking to add an extra person as HWMBO was going to come, and they downgraded me!

          I am finally on the tube and should get to the hotel shortly after 5pm.

            Got the Nespresso thing figured out, and there were a couple of little bits of chocolate too, so they’ve been guzzled with a coffee while watching a repeat of The Repair Shop

                  Well, we’re been all over the shop tonight - Smithfield, Moorgate, even up by the Gherkin. I’m thoroughly confused

                  A good night had by all though, I think

                  Goodnight all

                    Wish I could have joined you.
                    Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

                      Morning.

                      Grey.

                      Dark.

                      Sunless.

                      Dank.

                      Dreary.

                      Drizzly.

                      Warmer at 13.6 deg in here.

                      1014 mBar, 29.94 in Hg, 760.56 Torr, 60% RH.

                      Saturday.

                      Walk (unabbreviated) walked in the grey, dark, dank, dreary drizzle.

                      Innerestingly enough, an empty packet of sildenafil was discarded up by the res.

                      Lunch: that soup & rice thing, a yog, a bramble jelly sandwich, 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.

                      Entertainment: Dead Ringers.

                      More aliens bollox on Blaze, more than I could stand.

                      Freecell score: 88%, running average 84%.

                      Thing about Pink Floyd DSOTM (again) on Sky Arts.

                      PF live in Venice (part of).

                      Tea: spag with that fiery bol from last week (rather better than the chilli of the same vintage), some peach slices, a yog, 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.

                      Scotland Yard: another dose of the Wolseley 6/90 (this ep from 1961), a case of "wot's this ear" with a leg instead, fished (literally) out of a canal.

                      Turns out butchers have skillz.

                      Wilfrid Brambell (old man steptoe) as a posh pathologist.

                      Fred Dibnah on mining.

                      Wartime Farm Xmas (mostly coz I can't find anything else).

                      Brit Cops:Frontline Crime: Wales, look you, there's tidy then, boyo, Dyfed Powys, who'd have thunk it's all kicking off.

                      Goodness me, some of this lot are remarkably brain dead.

                      Followed by Quantum Leap: the photographer one, which was meh or I wasn't in the mood for it and:

                      Trucking Hell S5 E2: wherein the Lantern boys go to the gym with a vengeance. No Rory.
