Today we wandered around Pike Street Market (the birthplace of Starbucks, we didn't go to that bit) and then took a wander down to Pioneer Square.
It's now nearly 4pm and we'll soon be getting ready to visit a university friend of HWMBO's for dinner.Comment

Morning denizens
Somewhat cloudy start after some overnight rain, but clearing towards the east so getting sunnier later. A bit milder as a result, being 9°C but only getting to 12°. The barometers are down a bit but still optimistic at 1020/1029mBComment

Morning all
Overcast and warm (12C) on our walk, thankfully I noted the temperature before choosing a jacket.
Back in, and have watched the JL advert. I didn't see anything obvious in it to raise the blood pressure of wailers, but I'm sure they'll find something to be offended by.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Morning.
Thursday.
Dry.
Sunny.
Blue sky in parts.
Chilly in here at 14.1 deg, 12 deg in the kitchen, 11 deg in the leanto, 8.8 deg in the salting house.
1029 mBar, 30.386 in Hg, 771.8 Torr, 14.924 psi, (down from 1030 last night), 61% RH (Lidl electric).
Meanwhile on December 1st 2019 there was discussion by Brillo of NF's angina which had occurred two years previously, I was watching yet more BTVS including the commentary, and BR14 had defrosted lamb mince by mistake to make "chilli con lamby".
Shirts in the WM.
Shirts out of the WM & pegged out on the line.
Smalls in the WM.

Cottons can wait until tomorrow.
Walk (unabbreviated) walked in the sunshine. Bit warmer than yesterday, but then I was later too.
Lunch: brunch, though 20 mins earlier than usual.
Ferreted about in various cardboard boxes & down the shed looking for various bits & pieces for the next project, though that may never happen. Found ancient bits of radios from my misspent youth, including bits of a 1930s Philips SuperInductance wireless set which was almost enough to make me weep. Ho hum.
4 lawns duly mown, hopefully it's the final cut this year. Even had a shower to celebrate. .
Shirts in off the line & roughly iRoned despite being a bit damp.
Smalls in off the line & in the TD: they emitted quite a lot of water, rather more than I'd expected.
Shirts airing in the living room since that's the warmest & driest room.
Entertainment: The Infinite Monkey Cage: Maths. Committing the perfect murder.
Tea: Brains faggots etc.
Entertainment: PM.
Thing about Coal Minining on BBC4 Timewatch or whatever. Would have been better without the dirges "sung" by Ewan McColl. I've decided my dad was right about him.
UFO bollox on Blaze interspersed with Terminator: Dark Fate as the adverts breaks allowed, until I was fed up with both & turned it all off.Last edited by DoctorStrangelove; 14 November 2024, 23:08.When the fun stops, STOP.Comment
