Blowing an absolute hooley out there, and very heavy rain. Got soaked going to rescue a garden chair that was half way down the garden and heading to the coast. Now sitting on the last meeting of the day wearing my shclompers cause my trousers got soaked, even other my stockman's coat.

Very windy here too, and varying from Simpsonesque earlier to gloomy and raining right now
But that's me done - let the weekend commence!
I have to say, I admire the confidence of the team at ClientGov who deployed an update to one of their APIs at 16:56Comment

I was going shopping, but it's not urgent and BigJet TV are at Heathrow 27L for Storm Nelson
I'm heading south for a family Easter lunch tomorrow and go past a Sainsbury's at each end of the journey, so I can do it then if I can be botheredComment

Oh, and I just had enough time to get the mundane laundry in the machine between meetings this afternoon, so that's drying nowComment

Afternoon all, Playa Mita calling, local time 1736
Sunny, blue sky. Currently 24 degrees, the high was 26.
I meant to check in from LA this morning but was too busy getting breakfast in the Qantas First lounge before my flight down.

Tonight's major motion picture wasn't a premiere because I watched it a few years back: Nixon (1995), being Oliver Stone's take on the career of the eponymous disgrace to the office. Despite the cowardly attempt in the voiceover bit at the end to make out that he had some redeeming features and is deserving of reconsideration, I abide by Dr Hunter S. Thompson's view: "He could shake your hand and stab you in the back at the same time… If the right people had been in charge of Nixon’s funeral, his casket would have been launched into one of those open-sewage canals that empty into the ocean just south of Los Angeles. He was a swine of a man… Evil in a way that only those who believe in the physical reality of the Devil can understand it… Honest historians will remember him mainly as a rat who kept scrambling to get back on the ship."
Goodnight allComment

Morning denizens
It seemed sunny out when first I awoke, but as it's not a real day I went back to sleep for an hour or two. Now it's cloudy and very windy for good measure, though no rain expected. Quite mild at 9°C with 12° expected around lunchtime, though I'll have migrated south for lunch by then. The barometers are cautiously creeping back up at 971/979mBComment
