Knocked off for the day, popped ribs in the oven on ultra-low heat to cook for ~3 hours, and settling down to watch the Apple Event™

[WTFH]

A local village shop is about to close, and in an effort to keep it going, the local community are trying to buy it.

In an effort to be more community minded, I've just bought £1k of shares in it.

Walk briskly walked, green and red rings closed

It's not that cold out in principle, but it felt colder than it is

There's a car transporter stopped over the road while the driver goes along it with one of those height measuring sticks you see on Trucking Hell, checking if it will fit under the railway bridge

Telly, after some Australian gold diggers while I dined, was S1E1 of The Real Peaky Blinders on iPlayer, this first episode covering the history of street gangs in the Victorian period and the beginning of the move away from petty crime based around neighbourhood rivalries towards organised crime in the early twentieth century. Quite interesting

And then the Air Flight Investigation into the unfortunate end of Atlantic Southeast Airlines Flight 2311; one of those that proved to be the result of what might have seemed a fairly reasonable engineering assumption which was wrong

Goodnight all

Morning denizens

Sunny start out again, after a warmer night; currently 8°C with 13° expected, with the barometers trivially up at 1006/1014mB

[WTFH]

Morning all

Sun shining here, but raining to the north.
