The smoke detector settled down after I removed and reattached the battery. The clip for those 9v batteries never feels like it's properly attached and, as it turns out, that was the reason for the unit complaining.
This is to assist in the current project of running down stocks in the freezer. I also didn't buy any meat at Sainsbury's yesterday so I have to use up what I've already got

Tonight's major motion picture premiere was Boiling Point (2021) in which a chef strives to keep his team on track through a really busy Friday night in his restaurant. Sounds a bit dull when you put it that way, but it isn't; it's a great film, and single shot to boot. Seriously, watch this if you get the chance; it's really good
And then I stuck with the single shot idea with a rewatch of 1917 (2019) which is a great film IMHO.
And finally another rewatch, this time of Bombshell (2019), also a great film.

The wireless went <click> as soon as Paddy started spouting his nonsense.
In other news I've never seen nor heard a little owl.
Or, for that matter, any other sort of owl.
I feel bereft.
This morning's dream was sommat to do with a job I had in Cwmbran and a wedding, WTF that was all about is quite quite beyond me. :eye
Lunch: the chicken breast (Morrisons, reduced) turned out to be diced chicken breast so cooked remarkably fast which cocked up my timing no end , a yog or two, 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.
Entertainment: Just a Minute (since when do they announce the actual scores?).
Walk (unabbreviated) walked in the sunshine without so much in the way of wind.
And a local yokel at that. There's tidy then. It'll be a bit difficult getting from Llanrhidian to Cardiff without a car though.
Entertainment: commentary on Alias S1 E1 & S1 E2, the first one being the more inneresting (which ain't saying much).
Tea: baked potato with cheese & baked beans, a yog, a bramble jelly sandwich, a ham & mustard sandwich, 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.
Entertainment:
Alias S1 E4 "A broken heart".
Alias S1 E5 "Doppelganger".
The irritating thing about Alias which I'd quite forgotten is the cliffhanger to every fecking episode, which doesn't much matter on dvds since all you have to do is FF to the start of the next ep & FF through the boring "previously on Alias" bits until the story carries on.
Ipcress S1 E3. I have a hazy recollection of the book (and the radio play thereof) and the film, and this doesn't particularly resemble any of these.
Spotting the number plates on the cars lends it some excitement to find out if they've still got MOTs or not.
