Tea has been sausages, chips and beans
I've got a bit of a glut of sausages in the freezer, so thinning them out is no bad thing. Lots of bacon in there too that needs to be dealt withComment

In the interests of freezer clearance, I had fish fingers and chips for dinner.
Fitbit says I have done 26k steps and walked 13.5 miles today. I hope I don't ache too much in the morning as I have to get up for a 9am meeting with a potential client.Comment

Just discovered that I thought my local MP was a different Tory (not sanctioned by Russia) to the one it was (tractor porn), turns out we’ve got an election soon.
In the mean time, TFBSZ…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

The car earlier was a VW Golf GTi, albeit in its American incarnation. And then the cycling was back so I abandoned the telly and instead mucked about with a project that involves learning React JS, which I've never used before. Got an OpenLayers map working in it, so it can't be that hard
Then yet another police programme whilst dining. There can hardly be a force left in the country that isn't dependent on funds from letting a C5 film crew tag along with them. This one was Lincolnshire, and was so underwhelming that I ended up largely ignoring it after I'd finished eating in favour of Googling for open source (or at least free) UK geographical datasets to play with
I finished the antivirals today!
Goodnight allComment

Morning all
Dull and overcast. Currently 13 degrees ('feels like' 11) with a high of maybe 18 later. Potential risk of showers. Barometer up to 1013 mBar.
I am pleased to report that I ache but not terribly so. Three viewings in total booked for today.Comment

Morning denizens
Grey out today with a 12°C start, 18° predicted for later, and a chance of showers both now and around lunchtime. Barometers up a bit though, at 1001/1009mBComment

Morning.
This morning's dream involved copying CP/M diskettes for some odd reason unknown to anything other than my subconscious and it ain't telling.
Wet.
Grey.
Dark.
Dreary.
Dire.
Dreadful.
Chilly at 17.3 deg in here. Brrrrr.
1008 mBar, 29.766 in Hg, 756.06 Torr, 14.62 psi, (down from 1009), 73% RH.
Wednesday.
<News reading hiatus>
Sun's out.
Lunch: scrambled egg and poached tomato on Morrisons sunflower and pumpkin seed toast, bramble jelly sandwich on same, yellow corner yog, 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.
Due to incipient blueness, the final slice was toasted and consumed with marmalade. Very nice and not at all blue.
Entertainment: Y&Y. The joke about stealing houses in "Beverly Hills Cop" is no longer a joke.
TWAO.
Since it was dry: shopping trip to Morrisons done, dusted, washed, dried, & put away.
Since it was still dry: shopping trip to Morrisons done, dusted, washed, dried & put away.
Very loud bang from across the valley followed by a very strange noise.
I thought it sounded like a dying helicopter, but more realistically it was probably a truck tyre blowing out making the astoundingly loud bang (much to the irritation of the local jackdaws) whilst the remains of the tyre made the other noise as the truck slowed to a stop somewhere on the bypass.
Entertainment: 20 minutes of Discovering Richard Attenborough.
Tea: lamb's liver with onion gravy, some pear halves, a yog, 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.
Entertainment: Farscape S2 E17 "The Ugly Truth": The Spanish Inquisition about Talon shooting a ship one.
Wheeler Dealers: Toyota MR2: yet another car I've never wanted, just as well considering what a pain it is to change The Hose From Hell.
The Repair Shoppe: Medals, music box, dragon (look you), hammer (if I had a hammer, I'd hammer in the morning). Even less inneresting than Wheeler fecking Dealers. The dragon (look you) was amusing, the hammer less so.
Alias S2 E11 "A Higher Echelon": the echelon terminal software one.
Alias S2 E12 "The Getaway": Jack gets himself unframed, Sloan's clever scheme revealed.
National Park Mysteries on Blaze. Yeefeckinghaw! Feck me, this is even weirder than Skinwalker Ranch. .Last edited by DoctorStrangelove; 25 May 2022, 23:10.When the fun stops, STOP.Comment
