    Finished There Is No Antimemetics Division v2. It definitely benefits from the rewrite, particularly in the final chapters

    Goodnight all

      Morning.

      Friday apparently.

      Wet (as in it hammered down about 07:00).

      Sunny.

      Blue sky in parts.

      Chilly in here at 11.6 deg, 9.5 in the kitchen, 6.5 in the leanto.

      1006 mBar, 29.71 in Hg, 754.6 Torr, 14.59 psi, (down from 1007 last night), 58% RH (Lidl electric).

      Meanwhile on the 9th of March 2020 Brillo popped in a lot, and LM commiserated with WTFH about his ski resort being closed.

        Morning all

        Blue sky with occasional lumps of fluff. Currently 1 degree ('feels like' -3) with a high of 4 expected. There might be some snow, although the weather app is forecasting a total of 0.05 cm to fall. Barometer steady at 1006 mBar.

        Sunrise 08:47; Sunset 15:55 GMT

        Another quiet day beckons. My last before heading home tomorrow.

        I was going to start a project of taking an interesting photo each day this year but am already off to a bad start as no photo was taken yesterday.

          Morning denizens

          Overnight snow!

          Very little of it, though; just enough to give the windows of the cars a light dusting to make it a bit more inconvenient for me when I go shopping later

          Right now, though, it’s a clear blue sky and will be sunny once the sun manages to get a bit higher. It’s not warm: currently -1°C (which supposedly “feels like” -6°, though I think they’ve overestimated the wind again) and not getting any higher than 2° even with the sunshine lasting all day. The barometers are trivially down at 994/1002mB

          Last night, I chucked some bits of veg plus a roast turkey leg in the slow cooker and let it simmer overnight, so this morning I awoke to a delicious aroma spreading through the flat. The veg has now been blended and the meat shredded, along with some slices of breast meat, and the bones discarded; tendons and such appeared to have completely deliquesced overnight. So that’s now going to continue simmering for a few more hours on the way to becoming turkey soup

            Lunch, unsurprisingly: turkey soup, with the thick crusts off the white loaf I baked the other week

            The car is now snow-free at the front, but not at the back

            I’m dithering over whether to go shopping or not. There’s some stuff it would be useful to get, but I’m also feeling rather lazy, and I don’t think there's anything I need to get
