    Tea has been lamb chops with chips and beans

    This was accompanied by 999: What Happened Next on 4. Weirdly, this covered a hit and run case that was also covered in depth on some other programme I watched recently - I think it was Traffic Cops as it included a couple of the regular coppers off that

        Morning denizens

        It’s a clear blue sky out there but like a bed without a duvet, it’s let all the heat out! Currently 0°C but “feels like” -3°, which suggests the wind has dropped; the predicted high of 5° this afternoon isn’t expected to last long. The barometers are heading back up though, at 1002/1010mB

        Tuesday. Never much to say about Tuesday, is there? At least our backlog refinement meeting today has been cancelled, or rather merged with the sprint planning one tomorrow. There’s never enough between them to justify two meetings anyway, so it’s nice that wiser counsels have prevailed

          Morning all
          CBS and chilly out.
          Dawn chorus started around 6:30, head torch off at 6:45. Frost on the cars, and there were a few patches of ice on our walk.
          …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore

            Shopping trip to Morrisons done dusted washed dried sanitised & put away. Wore the "new" shoes I bought in 2023 for the first time , having bought another pair of shoes yesterday. M&S shoes of course.

            Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: Y&Y waffling on about faceache and their generous ad free offering. .

              Morning all

              Blue sky with some hints of wispy bits. Currently 3 degrees ('feels like' 0) with a high of 7 expected. Cloud cover set to increase as the day progresses. Barometer up to 1015 mBar.

              Last night HMWBO made a cooked breakfast for dinner! I'd been hankering after one for a while but I am never going to eat that at breakfast time. No bacon but excellent sausages, blood 'cake' (rather than your usual black pudding), pimped up baked beans, a fried egg, tomatoes, toast. Very delicious.

              On looking out the living room window this morning, I saw the local parking enforcement officer checking out the cars the garage next door clutters the road with. A bit odd doing his thing at 9 am. The first restricted parking period doesn't start until 10 am (the hours are 10-11 am and 2-3 pm). Maybe he was letting them know that he'd be back at 10 am and was checking which cars to make sure had been moved, or parking paid for. If the garage do have a bit of a sort out, it would be tempting to move my car from three streets away to my own road.

              Talking of shenanigans at the garage, someone had parked on the forecourt on Sunday and got blocked in by a BMW parking over the dropped curb entrance. It's all go.

                Lunch: leftover pork cutlet in a wholemeal bap with apple sauce

                It was sunny but it’s clouded over more now. Just a thin, high, white layer of cloud though

                The weather app was talking about possible snow tomorrow night, but it’s calmed down a bit and is now more inclined towards rain or maybe sleet

                  Lunch was beans on toast, using the last of yesterday's 'pimped' beans.
