If everything isn't black and white, I say, 'Why the hell not?'
John Wayne (My guru, not to be confused with my beloved prophet Jeremy Clarkson) -
Calm outside, but we've battened down the hatches.
Supposed to be going to up to Buckingham tomorrow morning. That may have to wait.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

I've sorted out the recycling, taken it down, and trundled the bin as it was full. It's fairly calm out there at the moment, though not for long…Comment

It's currently calm here in scotlandshire.
HWMBO is cooking dinner and the kids are out at various activities.Comment

Tea has been chicken casserole with chips and peas. It's a really nice casserole, that; very oniony
The weather isn't here yet but looking at the radar, it seems the leading edge should be arriving in half-an-hour or soComment

Bins moved to sheltered locations, one car moved as well. Pressure dropping.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Teatime viewing was the latest episode of 24 Hours in A&E
And I forgot that last night I'd watched E1 of This is Going to Hurt but iPlayer reminded me, so I watched E2. It's pretty good
Finally, an extended S5 episode of The Repair Shop
Rain, or at least drizzle, has arrived, though not too much of it so far. And the trees are, if anything, even stiller than they were earlier. But maybe it'll get worse soon
Early night now as I have to rescue the recycling bin first thing tomorrow, assuming it hasn't blown away
Goodnight allComment
