    Yet more Police Interceptors earlier, because I didn't have the energy to look for anything else - the C5 app was still on the series page, so I took the path of least resistance

    Going to be a warm night, so I think the bedroom window will be staying open. There's the first hint of a cooling breeze just starting to come through it, so it would be good if that keeps up

    Friday tomorrow!

    Somebody's scheduled a meeting with a supplier for 8am, which I've reluctantly agreed to join (to be fair, I think it was the bloke at the supplier who said he could only do that time) but I'll use that as an excuse for an early and long lunch break, and go and do the shopping

    Goodnight all

        Morning denizens

        Sunny start as expected. It was a warm night, so it's already 18°C and expected to get to 28° this afternoon. The barometers are down a little though, at 1006/1014mB

        Got this stupid 8am meeting shortly

          The dog and I both slept in this morning, and he was happy to have a run round the garden. The Wife will take him out later for a big walk.

                Morning all

                Blue sky with wispy fluff and chemtrails. Currently 24 degrees with a high of 32 expected. Barometer down to 1015 mBar.

                I think I'll stay indoors.

                BT are supposed to be calling me back at 3pm to advise what they're doing about cancelling my old phone line and broadband.

                    The early start this morning went OK in terms of sorting out some useful stuff for the project. And I've used it as an excuse to take an early and extended lunch break, so to Sainsbury's I did go

                    Lunch, therefore, has been a "well seasoned" chicken leg from the hot food counter - which, due to it already being 26°C and very warm in the car, wasn't even that cold by the time I got it home and guzzled it with a bag of plain crisps

                    It also became apparent that I was mistaken in thinking the windows at the old flat had been replaced when I caught a quick glimpse as I drove past the other week. The old sashes are still there, though one of the panes is still broken. But the doctor has had his woodwork painted, and it was this bright white gleam that I glimpsed through the trees out of the corner of my eye as I whizzed past
