    Morning.

    Saturday.

    Dry.

    Grey.

    Sunless.

    Dreary.

    Chilly in here at 17 deg, 17 in the kitchen, 16 in the leanto.

    1029 mBar, 30.39 in Hg, 771.9 Torr, 14.93 psi, (up a tad from last night), 66% RH (Lidl electric).

    Meanwhile on the 22nd of February 2020 Brillo and BR14 popped in, NF forewent scrabbling behind the telly due to a complaining back, and I watched Death Wish III and IV.

    Walk (towpath, unabbreviated) walked in the grey gloom.

      An interesting walk through the trading estate, then some common land with coos on it, over some locks, through some woodland and then finally a short stretch of proper road to Croxley station. I hope it's not raining when I pick the car up at the end of the month as that walk will be squishy and muddy.

      get a cab/uber/chauffeur driven limo when you pick the car up.

        You are quite right, one shouldn't lower oneself to use public transport too frequently. It's good to be reminded of one's exhalted place in society but it is rather uncouth to make a habit of it.

          Morning all

          Overcast. Dry. Currently 14 degrees with a high of 16 expected. The sun might make an appearance. Barometer up to 1035 mBar.

          Sunrise 07:19; Sunset 18:16 BST

          I have been to the farmers' market. Hot rum sauce and green seasoning procured from the Carribbean sauce lady (her posting on Instagram that she was at this market today spurred me to get out of bed). Other purchases were bacon, sausages, English muffins and tinned seafood.

          I need to do some laundry and then contemplate what else to do with my day. I have a prescription to pick up so that means going outside again. Shame they couldn't have texted readiness while I was at the market.

            Morning denizens

            Grey day again. As is also fairly standard now, it's 12°C with an expected high of 16°. The barometers are a touch higher at 1023/1031mB

            I'm debating what to have for breakfast. I got some croissants and jam yesterday, so that seems like a good choice

              Just spent an enthralling few minutes dealing with my home contents insurance renewal

              I'd been meaning to update it as it didn't cover the full value of either the bike or the Mac Mini, but I suspected I'd have to phone them up so I kept putting it off. But the renewal is due on Monday so I checked the details on the website, and it turned out I was able to add them without having to speak to anybody
