^^^Gorky Park. One of Mr Marvin's final epics. Read the book & watched film many years ago (knocking on for 35 to 40 from the sounds of it).
Morning.
Saturday.
More nightmare dreams about work: this time the car had two punctured tyres when home time came & the batphone was very odd indeed, plus the landline in work seemed even stranger. I was glad to wake up.
Dry.
Misty.
Wanly sunny.
Chilly in here at 16.1 deg, 17 deg in the kitchen, 13 deg in the leanto, 9.5 deg in the saltinghouse.
1011 mBar, 29.854 in Hg, 758.3 Torr, 14.663315 psi, (up from 1006 last night), 77% RH (GDR hair), 71% RH (Lidl electric).
Meanwhile on the 14th of July 2019 the steam engine "Tornado" bypassed Neath on the Swansea District Line. Which was disappointing.
Cottons in the WM.
Cottons out of the WM and pegged out on the line.
Walk walked for the first time in months, since June 23rd as it transpires apart from once in July.
Lunch: baked beans on toast & suchlike.
Entertainment: Money Box. America's book of secrets on Bollox Blaze.
Cottons in off the line still slightly damp, duly iRoned & airing upstairs, the roller towel was damper than I'd thought.
Freecell score: 95%, running average: 86%.
Still sunny here. I brought the cottons in because it had gone very grey.
Tea: spag with last portion of bol, pity the preceding portions weren't as nice as this one.
Entertainment: PM.
WWII in colour: gotterdamerung.
Pink Floyd "The endless drivel". <click> WWII in colour: Iwo Jima, Okinawa, Little Boy & Fat Man.
Maigret S2 E11 "The reluctant witnesses". The biscuit factory one. Lacks the emphasis on the antisemitism in this production. It also lacks Gromit despite having Peter Sallis.
The Four Just Men E38 "The boy without a country". Cabin boy runs away from a ship.
It's A Royal It's a Knockout on 5+1.
1976 on 5.
