Sunday.
Wet. Very wet intermittently.
Grey.
Gloomy.
Sunlees.
Chilly in here at 13.2 deg, 12.5 deg in the kitchen, 12.5 deg in the leanto.
1002 mBar, 29.589 in Hg, 751.56 Torr, 14.533 psi, (down from 1003 last night), 69% RH (GDR hair), 65% (Lidl electric).
Meanwhile back on 31st of March 2019 the clocks had gone forward an hour and snow was forecast for the following Wednesday.
Fed next door's cat.
Bah fecking humbug.
Walk (unabbreviated) walked in the wan sunshine and chilly breeze. Warmed up a little towards the end.
Lunch: baked potato with cheese & baked beans, yellow corner yog, blackcurrent jam and marmalade on slices of Morrisons wholemeal sunflower & spelt toast, 0.91*1.66 pints of good Glengettie tea.
Entertainment: The Food Programme on R4.
"Farmageddon (2019)" with that Shaun the Sheep. Loved the bit with Brian Cox (not the sweary one) right at the end. "Things can only get better" <click> as Timmy pulls the plug.
Sounds of the 60s on Yesterday. This half hour is 60s folk songs.
.
Sounds of the 70s: Prog Rock in its pomp.
. What's not to like? It's alright now, man.
Now it's Yes "Yours is on disgrace". Play that mellotron, man. Can't remember the last time I listened to that. Must be 40 years if it's a day.
"Hocus Pocus" by Focus.
Captain Beefheart. Never liked them.
. "Upon the My o My".
The Sensational Alex Harvey Band: Delilah. The Old Grey Whistle Test set. No mellotron, some hideous synth. Nice whisper from Whispering Bob at the end, there. 
Doctor Feelgood: Roxette.
The Carpenters on the Vera Lynn show. "Close to you".
Abba: Waterloo, introduced by Noel Edmunds..
Sparkes. this town ain't big enough. Odd looking chap playing the mellotron. Looks like someone intent on annexing the Sudetenland.
Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel. "Come up & see me".
10CC: "I'm not in love". Works for me.
Kate Bush: Wuthering away like a good 'un.
I see someone's driven off a bridge into the River Tawe. It didn't end well for either occupant.
. At least they found them unlike that chap that disappeared some years ago.
"The Canterville Ghost" with that Anthony Stewart Head chappie without Buffy.
The sniping part of "Joe Kidd (1972)".
Tea: chilli con carne with rice (thankfully of more reasonable heat than the bol proved to be), a yog, what I thought was a single xmas pud but proved to be a sponge pudding, with custard, 0.91*1.61 pints of good Glengettie tea.
Various bits of "Digging for Britain" with that Alice Roberts. Iron age & Bronze age.
More of Alice Roberts digging tulip up.
Portions (the violent bits) of "Magnum Force (1973)".
Portions of The Repair Shoppe: late Victorian wooden salad bowl, roller skates, banjo.
"Murphy's War (1971)" with that Peter O'Toole. Oddly the German Uboat has a Murphy B40 wireless, which seems a bit odd.
Knew I'd forgotten sommat: Ghosts Xmas Ep at 19:25. Ho hum.
Drinkies included some little bottles that I rescued out of next door's binbags whilst sorting said binbags into burnables, recyclables, and stuff I could consume. I'm not proud though those ancient Quality Street yellow toffees had seen better days.
