Walk with loony lady 2 was too difficult for her. She wasn't up to walking back and a bloke at a campsite gave us a lift! There are some nice people around. Had a nice lunch at pub overlooking a lake and I had a lone wander while she sat chatting to another old lady.
Managed to submit my damn company accounts to HMRC. Hadn't been able to do a submission to Companies House as I had not received an authentication code and was a bit worried I might not get it on time so applied for a filing extension. Just had email that said it had been extended to Dec 31st! Think I'll just keep applying for extensions so I don't have to bother with submissions at all.
Tonight, I started reading The Andromeda Anthology by Fred Hoyle and John Elliot, being A for Andromeda and The Andromeda Breakthrough in one volume. I vaguely remember getting A for Andromeda out of the library when I was about fourteen, but don't remember anything much about it. Of course, I'm too young to have seen the original 1961 TV series!
There's been quite a lot of rain in the last hour, but it seems to have eased off a bit now. I noticed it was getting quite windy too
Sunny out, with just some patches and wisps of high, thin cloud here and there. The warm spell is over though: it's a mere 10°C ("feels like" 8°) and not getting any warmer than 14°, though the wind seems to have eased off quite a bit. The barometers are up again at 1006/1014mB

Goodnight all
I can remember the TV series. scared the stuffing out of me!
I blame stuff like that and quatermass for my lifelong addiction to scifi.
for which i'm eternally grateful
oh, sorry, - morning all
lovely sunny morning here, after yesterday's deluge.
no extra trampolines or sheds in the garden either.
Grey with hints that there might just be blue sky and a wan sun somewhere.
Cooler in here at 19 deg, 18.5 in the kitchen, 17 in the leanto.
1012 mBar, 29.88 in Hg, 759.1 Torr, 14.6778 psi, (up from 1005 last night), 64% RH (Lidl electric).
Meanwhile on the 18th of February 2020 BR14 and Churchill popped in, along with LM, WTFH, and NF, whereas in the library, it being half term or something, it was LEGO day. . But not, as it transpired, for very many more weeks. Whilst elsewhere it was merely cold, here, as per, it was cold and wet.
Walk (towpath, unabbreviated) walked in the grey gloom. More people about today.
Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: something about the woman who's in charge of the RFU.
