    Morning all
    6C when we got back from our walk earlier. Mist in the valley is slowly burning off.
    …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore

      Morning denizens

      Cloudy start yet again, though there are some gaps and we may get some sunny spells, in theory. It's mild enough for October again too: 9°C and aiming for 13° this afternoon. The barometers are back up a bit at 985/993mB

      Thinking of heading out to the countryside for a walk. Would make a nice change, and God knows I need the exercise

        Morning.

        Wednesday.

        Dry.

        Grey.

        Sunless.

        Dreary.

        Chilly in here at 17.4 deg, 16 in the kitchen, 14 in the leanto, 10.5 in the saltinghouse.

        Slight condensation on the bedroom window. 2nd time this autumn.

        993.5 mBar, 29.34 in Hg, 745.2 Torr, 14.4 psi, (up from 990 last night assuming I tapped it), 63% RH (Lidl electric).

        Meanwhile on the 25th of February 2020 BR14 popped in with discussion of Hill Street Blues, NF mentioned it was on Amazon Prime, I didn't mention I had the dvds, LM couldn't be bothered to make pancakes.

        Washing frenzy in progress: the chances of anything drying on the line seem remote, but we'll wait & see.

        Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: "The death of an ordinary man" at 11:45. .

        Can't say there's much in the way of drying going on with the washing. I'll bung the shirts in the TD at 15:00 if they're still damp.

        Walk (unabbreviated, towpath) walked in the sunshine. Rather pleasant though the inevitable grey began its return halfway through.

        Shirts in off the line & duly iRoned, airing upstairs now along with the smalls.

        Currently getting outside a mug of mediocre but consistent coffee and typing this nonsense.

          Morning all

          Cloudy with occasional gaps. Some dampness about. Currently 10 degrees with a high of 14 expected. There could be some sunshine, there could be some rain. There's also a 'moderate wind warning' but that's for tomorrow. Barometer up to 998 mBar.

          Sunrise 07:38; Sunset 17:53 BST

          Rubbish sleep due to irritable legs and being too hot or too cold.

          Assorted clothings are in the WM.

          Six hours of meetings today.

            Lunch: Heinz tomato soup and white toast

            Spent a chunk of the morning mucking around with RealityKit shaders. Might get around to going for that country walk soon, after which I shall start digging into some blog posts and articles about barycentric coordinates, whatever they are

              Assorted clothings were draped over the airer in a gap between meetings.

              2 hours done. 4 to go.

              Lunch prepped ready to finish off in my next gap.

                two days spent attempting to reach a proper computer.
                balked by an 'upgrade' to Windoze systems in the interminable chain of jumps to get to a 3270 terminal.
