            I assume that "m" stands for minutes, not miles?

                Morning denizens

                Cloudy start but dry, and milder too: already at 9°C with an expected high of 16°. The barometers are very slightly up at 1004/1012mB

                  The Halifax finally got around to refunding the extra payment they took at the start of the month, so I think that means the matter of the mortgage is completely done and dusted

                      Morning.

                      Tuesday apparently.

                      Grey.

                      Dark.

                      Dreary.

                      Dank.

                      Apparently dry.

                      Chilly in here at 14.9 deg, 15 deg in the kitchen, 13 deg in the leanto.

                      1008.5 mBar, 29.78 in Hg, 746.44 Torr, 14.627 psi, (down from 1011 last night), 66% RH (Lidl electric).

                      Meanwhile on the 21st of November 2019 WTFH had hot water restored by the needful doings of the plumber, Brillo poked his head above the parapet, and I spent yet more time "killing" brambles and taking stuff down the dump, having reached S6 of BTVS and viewed the advent of Skip in "Angel".

                      Trip to that Swansea to buy "The Most Wanted Man" that I didn't buy yesterday. Managed not to buy anything else.

                      Lunch: there was.

                      Walk (unabbreviated) walked in the grey drizzly gloom. It was quiet out there.

                      Freecell score: 93%, running average: 78%.

                      Tea: Morrisons breaded haddock etc. Nice enough.

                      Entertainment: book.

                      Digging for Britain from 2017: red hair. Weird skirt.

                      Thing on S4C about some rugby chap from Brynamman who is descended from African slavers in Ghana and Richard Brew who went there from Ireland & married the chief's daughter, going on to become remarkably successful in terms of exporting enslaved people.

                      There was a thing on ITV about people getting Bobbited but I passed on that one.

                      PBS was rattling on about Cold War spying.
