    Meanwhile in the halcyon preplague days of 23rd of July 2019 PhilTheGreek had spinach & potato ?soup? which he rather approved of, whilst others were sweating away in the appalling heat while yet others (DaveB) were buying aircon and I was wondering where the feck all that junk came from in the front bedroom, something that puzzles me still.

    Smalls out of the WM & pegged out on the line.

    It went very grey so everything is back in, shirts are dryish, smalls in the TD.

    The last half hour of "The Bounty Hunter" with that Randolph Scott chap.

        Long village group walk this morning, over 2 hours. Nicer than I expected.

            Bah! Lady came beside me during group walk today and we chatted all the way. Thought I might have a loony lady 4 but then she mentioned her husband was at the back.

              Scotch broth and a thick crust of wholemeal for tea

              Back to work tomorrow. I can't say I'm excited about it, but I definitely feel much better for having had a break

              Just got to work out when to use the rest of the leave now

                Not a lot of viewing today, what with the schedules having been upended. There was some true crime stuff early evening which I didn't really pay a lot of attention to. And later, a new episode of The Crash Detectives followed by a couple of old episodes of 24 Hours in A&E

                Suppose I'd better set an alarm for the morning. At least there's the clock change working in my favour

                  Morning all

                  Blue sky with chunks of fluff. Damp from yesterday's (and overnight) rain. Currently 9 degrees with a high of 14 expected. Rain due from lunchtime onwards. Barometer up to 997 mBar.

                  Yesterday's drive to Sussex was not very pleasant. The drive back was better.

                  Now off for a day with my new client.

                    Morning denizens

                    Fairly cloudy start, though some bands of blue are starting to appear between the layers. Currently 9°C with 13° later, which seems to be the new standard. Chance (~25%) of showers around lunchtime. The barometers are up a little at 982/990mB, despite the alleged approach of Storm Wotsisname

                      Morning all
                      Blue skies and sunshine out on our walk earlier, although the ground is sodden.
                      …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore
