      Felt like a burger for tea tonight, which was duly brought to me from Five Guys

      Rain’s back, though not to anything like the same degree

        The usual, though much diminished, wildlife offering today was supplemented by the first episode of Kingdom on iPlayer. It’s very good; I found it rather amusing that I already knew the leopard from another wildlife programme, and also the matriarch of the African wild dogs, which have previously had their own series

        Later, I read some more of Elvissey

        Goodnight all

          Morning all
          Overcast but breezy out - not that we’ve been further than the garden yet. Plan for the day is to walk the dogs, edit photos, get dinner ready and wait for my wife to return from her jaunt. Side tasks may include a bit of gardening.
          …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore

            Morning.

            Sunday.

            Grey.

            Dry.

            Sunless.

            Chilly in here at 16.8 deg, 16 in the kitchen, 14 in the leanto, 10.7 in the saltinghouse.

            1007 mBar, 29.74 in Hg, 755.3 Torr, 14.6 psi, (up from 1005 last night), 66% RH (Lidl electric).

            Meanwhile on the 29th of February 2020: see yesterday's comment.

            Washing frenzy in progress.

            Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: the dehumidifier droning away along with some drilling on the party wall from next door. Do tenants usually drill on the party wall? Just askin' for a friend, like. . It wasn't a small drill either.

            Shirts, though slightly damp, duly iRoned & airing upstairs.

            Entertainment: The Infinite Monkey Cage S1 UFOs.

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

            Washing frenzy complete with a small contribution from the TD.

            Tea: beans on toast etc. Entertainment: The Infinite Monkey Cage S1 E3 Quantum Physics.

            Other other book.

            Look at life: London River. Docks docks & more docks: all gone now.

            Sergeant Cork. The cases of Ella Barnes (1963). Sweated labour, but it's all ok they weren't actual slaves, like.

              Morning all

              Overcast and dull, damp. Currently 9 degrees with a high of 11 expected. Barometer up to 1011 mBar.

              Sunrise 07:21; Sunset 16:21 GMT

              Our mosey home yesterday was via Borough Market and a Carribbean restaurant for lunch. The tube lines were very busy, probably on account of the Lizzy Line being out of action.

              Heading down to visit Mum today. I am mildly stressing about what she may have gotten up to while left alone for a few days. I have packed a variety of foodstuffs to take down.

                Morning denizens

                Cloudy out, though a few tiny gaps are showing blue here and there and there’s a chance of sunny spells. No sign of rain, and the wind seems to have eased up more than the weather app is willing to admit, as it claims it’s gusting up to 19mph while the trees all stand there unmoving. It’s getting colder this week though: currently 8°C (“feels like” 4° because of those gusts that don’t seem to be happening) with a high of just 9°, while there are several overnight frosts predicted through the week, and even a chance of snow on Thursday! The barometers are up a little more at 1002/1010mB

                  Tea has been a fry-up

                  This was accompanied by something about some cheetahs

                    I left the bed to air earlier, but just remembered to make it again!

                      Further viewing this evening was the latest episode of Ambulance

                      And then I read some more of Elvissey

                      Monday again tomorrow. Only four more weeks of work to go this year, though!

                      Goodnight all
