    This evening's viewing was Trauma Room 1 followed by a couple of old episodes of 24 Hours in A&E. I thought there was a new one of the latter, but it turned out to be a clip show

    Monday again tomorrow. At least there'll be a new Secretary of State, not that I ever get to move in such exalted circles

    Goodnight all

      Morning all
      Overcast and damp out, but at least it isn't tipping it down like it did every half hour yesterday
      …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore

        Morning denizens

        Sunny start for a change. Expected to get cloudier by lunchtime though. It's already 12°C and likely to reach 20°, while the barometers are up a bit more at 1003/1011mB

          Morning.

          Monday.

          Dry.

          Sunny.

          Blue sky.

          Cool in here at 18.3 deg, 19 deg in the kitchen, 17 deg in the leanto, 13.6 deg in the saltinghouse.

          1009 mBar, 29.796 in Hg, 756.8 Torr, 14.6343 psi, (up from 1007 last night), 69% RH (Lidl electric).

          Meanwhile on the 18th of October 2019 there was much talk of Viz (whatever that is), Drunken Bakers (ditto), whilst I got wet wandering aimlessly around Neath as a coffin dodger.

          Shirts in the WM.

          Shirts out of the WM and pegged out on the line.

          Smalls in the WM.

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

          Cottons in the WM.

          Shopping trip to Morrisons done dusted washed dried sanitised & put away.

          Cottons out of the WM and pegged out on the line.

          Assorted other stuff that needed washing in the WM.

          Shirts in off the line & roughly iRoned along with the tea towels.

          Lunch: scrambled egg etc.

          Entertainment during the above: The Infinite Monkey Cage: S21: Quantum stuff.

          The Infinite Monkey Cage: S21: UFOs. .

          The Infinite Monkey Cage: S21: Lucy Beaumont's Close Encounters. .

          S22 begins during lockdown.

          It's gone very dark so everything is in off the line, the cottons requiring the iRon have seen the iRon, everything else is airing upstairs.

          The jeans have proved not to be dry, the waistband is still remarkably damp, but the puffer jacket seems to have dried rather more than I'd expected.

          In further bad news the Freecell box is toast. Ho hum.

          Tea: soup etc.

          Raining.

          Entertainment: Veronica Mars S3 E3. The Armie Hammer football jock one.

          Abandoned Engineering. I wonder if this one will have any engineering in it. Berlin lime kilns. Amazon jungle hotel. Schindler's Factory. Moroccan fort in the Atlas Mountains.

            Neighbour next door just came round and asked if I can turn my WiFi off when their gardener is around as it affects her. Makes her dizzy. Thought she must be a loony, but looking on Google, not so sure. Rarely use it anyway, my PC has ethernet.

              tell them it's off, and see if it goes away

                Seems odd she felt dizzy when entering neighbour's garden at closest spot to the router. Wonder if my insomnia has similar causes, must make myself a tin foil hat.

                    This

                    Or turn it off and construct an antenna-looking thing that isn't connected to anything, point it at their garden, and see if that has the same effect

                      or blame it on the nearest 4/5G mast, or CHEMtrails, or, if all else fails, - immigrants.
