    Wednesday apparently.

    Dry.

    Sunny.

    Blue sky.

    Cooler in here at 17.1 deg, 17 deg in the kitchen, 14.5 deg in the leanto.

    Condensation on the bedroom window for the first time this autumn.

    1006.5 mBar, in Hg, Torr, psi, (up from 1005 last night), 74% RH (Lidl electric).

    Meanwhile on the 11th of November 2019 there was discussion of the fall in temperature of the NF flat, it having reached a mere 22 deg, freezers appeared to be full universally, some with litre containers of frozen apple, whereas I made a trip down the dump to rid the place of yet more detritus.
    Ho hum.


    Shopping trip to Aldi & Tesco done dusted washed dried sanitised & put away. Aldi had no dates, and Tesco didn't have the fish or the Brains faggots. Highly successful.

    Lunch: there was.

    Still sunny. And cold with it.

    Windy as well.

    Walk (unabbreviated) walked, towards the end of which it decided to sprinkle a light rain upon me.

    It changed its mind later & pissed down with a vengeance.

    Tea: soup etc.

    Entertainment: The Bridge S1 E5, E6, E7, E8. I'd completely forgotten the ins & outs of this.

      Cleared the "system cache" and it's fixed it again. Another clue…

        Morning denizens

        It's a grey sort of start towards the northeast but brighter with lots of blue patches towards the southwest, with no clear indication of which will win. The weather app says it's raining but it isn't at the moment, though it has been and may start again at any time. It's also expected to be quite breezy. Colder today, being 9°C with no more than 13° expected, while the barometers are back up slightly at 995/1003mB

        As far as the lurgy is concerned, today's the first day I've thought on getting up that I might feel slightly better, as opposed to feeling not quite as bad; a subtle distinction, but an important one. This hasn't really translated into being better, as the mere process of getting coffee and so on has left me knackered. But I'll take it as a sign of improvements to come

          Morning all

          Bright and sunny, not a cloud to be seen. Chilly though: currently 10 degrees with a high of 15 expected. Rain forecast for this afternoon. Barometer up a smidge to 1009 mBar.

          Off to the hairdressers this morning to get the greys painted over.

            Took me van to a garage that should have been 10 mins away at most, took me 1/2 hr. Road was closed and they had diverted the traffic along a narrow winding road, totally blocked as impossible to pass. Why are these people such idiots? Managed to turn round and drive through the town.

              Morning all

              Chilly on the walk earlier - it was only 8C at 6:30am

                My AirPods Pro have arrived!

                When I placed the order yesterday, it said they'd be here on Thursday. But then they shipped in the evening, and UPS just arrived with them

                  Lunch: sausages in finger rolls

                  If it wasn't for the lurgy I'd have been down at the parental home now, taking stuff away. As it is, my sister is there, texting me to ask if I want this or that, and I've also got emails from the solicitor about the completion date, which depends on stuff my sister is arranging so I'm having to ask her about that too. And then somebody from ClientGov popped up on Slack asking questions about old stuff, though they went away again once they realised I was "on leave". I'm supposed to be resting so I get better, not dealing with all this stuff!

                    Managed to cram my grownup hat on my head for long enough to tell the conveyancer to go ahead with exchanging contracts today, for completion two weeks from now

                    That's quite enough of that for one day

                      Hail!



                      I had popped out for a catch up with a chap from a consultancy and got home in the nick of time.
