Another day done and it was quite interesting, working with somebody else on some stuff. But I'll be glad when it's this time tomorrow and I'm done for the week

Tonight in reading, I finished off The Founders. And then I started on Falling by T. J. Newman. This is the first novel by a former flight attendant, who's been very successful with this and her two subsequent books - movie rights sold for vast sums, top of the bestseller lists, and all that. I think I bought it because it was part of a "buy four things and get x% off" offer on Amazon. Anyway, it seems like a decent enough thriller so far, though I haven't actually got very far with it as I got distracted researching the possibility of rendering irregularly-shaped views in SwiftUI
Thursday tomorrow!
Goodnight allComment

Morning denizens
Slightly misty and overcast start, though the sun is just about to come up and it'll clear up a lot going into the morning. It's 8°C ("feels like" 3°, so there must be a breeze, though it's not obvious to me) with an expected high of a balmy 16° this afternoon. The barometers are heading down again, at 1009/1017mBComment

The Wife left me this morning.
Well, I say left, she's gone off with a school friend to visit another friend who is rather ill.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Morning.
Thursday.
Dry.
Wanly sunny.
Chilly in here at 16.6 deg, 16.5 deg in the kitchen, 14 deg in the leanto.
1012 mBar, 29.884 in Hg, 759.1 Torr, 14.6778 psi, (down from 1019 last night), 68% RH (Lidl electric).
Meanwhile on the 24th of November 2019 NF's visit to the chinese was back to normal with no other customers, nor Amber Rudd, viewing included yet more of "The Wire" along with locations as shown on google, whereas I was still watching BTVS and Angel, and xogg was wondering why weather forecasts were so pessimistic since rather than cloud & mist he experienced a sunny day with blue skies.
Walk (unabbreviated) walked in the sunshine and occasional grey gloom.
Lunch: there was brunch.
Entertainment: thing on R4 about that google: whatever happened to "Don't be Evil"? Just askin' like. .
Freecell score 90%, running average: 79%.
More gardening. Hacked yet more honeyfeckingsuckle out of the bushes. The roots are spreading under the grass.
Tea: spag with some experimental bol: it was okish but could have done with a good deal more chilli. Maybe the stuff festering in the freezer will turn out better.
Entertainment: PM <click>
UFO bollox on Blaze: RAF encounters, with Rendelsham thrown in for good measure.
Book.
Thing on Sky Arts about Movie Moguls.
Thing on Sky Arts about the late Sir Christopher Lee.

Morning all
Sunny and dry. Clear sky from my vantage point. Currently 10 degrees with a high of 18 expected. Barometer down to 1021 mBar.
My aunt texted me this morning asking if Mum was eligible for any Alzheimer's trials. Because her conclusion after forgetting her sister existed for the past two years is that she now needs to interfere in her care. I will be charitable and assume that this is her just trying to be more involved and scratching around for things that might help.Comment

Lunch has been a pork cutlet in a wholemeal bap with apple sauce
It's brightened up considerably out; looking rather Simpsonesque nowComment
