To Sainsbury's I did go, where I got the new Viz!

They didn't have one at my Sainsburies again! Everything been moved around, no Edam cheese, no mixed nuts. Think I might try another supermarket.

PS If you have a perfect issue #1, it could be worth over a thousand quid. If you believe the stuff online.

Tea has been homemade pork chow mein

This was accompanied by the rest of a motorwayless cops episode I started watching the other day. Somebody stopped for no insurance claimed that they'd taken out a day policy, but were then fiddling on their phone complaining that they couldn't get their emails up to confirm this, bad signal, etc. While they were doing that, the cop rang the CIB who were able to tell him that not only was no insurance held, but the driver had actually just been using their phone to try to arrange a day policy while they were sat in the back of the police car!

Tonight's reading was Miss Lonelyhearts by Nathanael West, a short and darkly humorous novel set in New York during the Great Depression about a newspaperman who writes the advice column, and who is being driven towards a breakdown by the suffering described in the readers' letters he receives every day and his own inability to do anything useful about it

Goodnight all

Morning.

Friday.

Grey.

Wanly sunny.

Damp.

Chilly in here at 13 deg, 11.5 in the kitchen, 11 in the leanto.

1005 mBar, 29.6776 in Hg, 753.8119 Torr, 14.576 psi, (unchanged), 65% RH (Lidl electric).

Meanwhile on the 30th of December 2019 LM wasn't getting married & I had an eccles cake (Morrisons, reduced, I would assume).

Shopping trip to Morrisons done dusted washed dried sanitised & put away.

Walk (unabbreviated) walked in the wan sunshine. Some black clouds made an appearance but were of no consequence.

Lunch: brunch.

Entertainment: yesterdays ep about the asbestos thing concerning Turner & Newell and Cape asbestos.

The fat kiddy fiddling **** Cyril Smith was set up to ask questions in a select committee about the politics of the Yorkshire TV production team. The production team were investigated by private detectives in an attempt to get dirt on them.

It's raining so the ongoing DIY is on hold until it stops.

I'm sure I've got an electric planer "somewhere". .

I should have bought the plastic padding version of wood filler rather than the slightly cheaper version which appears to be water based.

Tea: soup etc.

Entertainment: PM.

Book. Other book. Other other book.

Mysteries from above: more bollox on Blaze. Native American earthworks: serpent mounds etc. Looking for the bodies at Waterloo: seems a popular thing on these programmes, this must be the third example I've seen recently. Bone char for sugar refining? Greece: saronic gulf: red water on Metopi island. Lots of red lakes about: Septic (Texas), Africa: lake Natron. Odd "cool" volcano adjacent (only 600 deg C lava). Red glowing "clouds" on the Pacific: fishing lights: red leds.

Morning denizens

Rather a grey day out, with high cloud. The occasional glimmer of sun was getting through the low gaps, but I think it's risen too high for that now. Mild enough: 10°C (though it "feels like" 6°) with an expected high of 14°, while the barometers are down a touch more at 999/1007mB

Conditions up at the cemetery in Liverpool are expected to be similar, though with a little rain in an hour or so. But that should be over long before we're there

[NickFitz]

There's a crash by Sandbach services on the M6, though it doesn't appear to be causing any delays

Still, I suppose I'd best set off - better to have some spare time at the other end. I could go and look for the graves of Ken Dodd, Cilla Black, and John's mother Julia Lennon, as they're all in there

[WTFH]

Morning all
Overcast but dry here, and a warm 9C at 6.30am.
Off to Cornwall later

Yeh, cheers Nick. Only Sainburies/Smiths locally. May have a look if I visit other towns on list.

Afternoon all

Cloudy but bright and dry. Currently 17 degrees and that's the high for the day. Some slight chances of showers. Barometer continues its downward trend to 1011 mBar.

Sunrise 06:33; Sunset 17:52

Busy morning. Actually done something for a change.

This evening HWMBO and I are off to Prague for the weekend. This is the last trip I have booked for this year. Obviously it won't actually be the last as I am 100% certain I will be booking another jaunt or two within the next couple of months.

Obviously I had to scroll back for aeons to find out what the hell this was about.
