Still raining.
Lunch: baked potato with cheese and baked beans, a yellow corner yog, bramble jelly & marmalade on slices of not very toasted toast, 0.91*1.54 pints of good Glengettie tea.
Entertainment: Y&Y waffling on about degree courses & universities <click>.
Replaced by The Infinite Monkey Cage from June 2013 about Space Tourism with Brian "Gordon's Alive!" Blessed talking about going to Mars and some oik from Virgin Galactic waffling on about how they're going to launch fee paying space tourists within a couple of years. . That prediction turned out well. .
Freecell score: 84%, running average: 85%. It's better to quit while you're ahead.

Colonel March of Scotland Yard: the one about the ex monk poisoned by an evil cafe owner.
Scotland Yard "Murder Anonymous": who murdered the evil philanderer? Featuring the Right Honourable Sir Travers Humphreys P.C. (which explains the P.C. in the credits). I'd have said it was justifiable homicide but there you go. Ewen Solon who wasn't playing Sgt Lucas but rather Inspector Conway.
The Four Just Men S1 E1: "The battle of the bridge". How it all started.
Joy of PaintingNot on today.
The Human Jungle "Struggle for a mind" with that Joan Collins who made the mistake of appearing with The WWWC in "The City on the Edge of Forever" which didn't end well for her.

Morning all (local time 1111)
Sunny, no cloud. Currently 29 degrees ('feels like' 32) with a high of 32 expected.
Sore head today. Had a lovely meal out with our fellow travellers and then onto a cocktail bar. We have a late check out time of 2pm so no rush to be up and lively. Off to Helsinki this evening.
I am not on FB, having quit that many years ago. I am on Instagram though but not as ladymuck.Comment

Black suit arrived from M&S. It seems to fit, so that's one less thing to worry about
I've got a dark grey one, but I'll be a pall bearer this time so black is of the essence, really.
Now to find the black formal shoes. IIRC I uncovered three pairs of these when moving, each of which had been worn once for a funeral or wedding, then couldn't be found in time for the next occasion. I know they're all here somewhere, but have no idea where. Ah well, they'll turn up if I keep dithering around for long enough; it's not exactly Woburn Abbey in here
Black belt found too, and several black ties to choose from, for the same reason as the shoes.Comment
