      Another day done, so that’s half the working week out of the way!

      Unlike yesterday, I managed to be highly productive today. I was able to demo some stuff for the stakeholders at lunchtime, which they were happy with despite the UI being a bit messy. And this afternoon, I managed to sort out a whole load of the cosmetic messiness, along with rejigging the URL scheme to make certain things easier to implement, and get the whole app in reasonable shape for a demo in the Show & Tell tomorrow morning

        Tea has been the pork in cider thing with chips

        And the accompanying viewing was The Truth About My Murder on iPlayer, being the case of a young woman from Neath who was murdered by her boyfriend on the Bwlch Mountain road in 2007

          Tonight’s reading was more of …Lose the Time War, though I also found time to read up on some slightly obscure aspects of SwiftUI

          Tomorrow will be a day of many meetings, because it’s sprint end/start day

          Goodnight all

            Morning all

            Cloudy, dry. Currently 6 degrees ('feels like' 3) with a high of 16 expected. Sunshine later. Barometer down to 1026 mBar.

            Sunrise 06:40; Sunset 17:47 GMT

            On my way to clientCo office.

              Morning denizens

              Grey start out, and slightly misty if one looks far enough away. Feels a bit chilly too, and the figures bear this out as it’s only 4°C, though it’ll get sunnier this afternoon and soar to 13°. The barometers are steady at 1014/1022mB

                Morning all
                CBS, etc, and a chilly 5C on our walk earlier. A little mist in the valleys and a lot of dew on the grass. Looks like a pleasant day. Off to the airport later to go visit my dad.

                  This week I knitted a prime factors jumper. Basically each prime has a different colour (the light blue background is 1, which is a factor of everything) and the other numbers are represented by multiplying the primes. Quite pleased with it. Fits approx 2 year old who will be far too young to understand the maths, but my patience/arthritic knuckles didn't feel up to a bigger one!

                    My maths isn't up to it either.

                    Morning.

                    Wednesday.

                    Sunny. .

                    Dry.

                    Blue sky.

                    Chilly in here at 13.8 deg, 13 something in the kitchen, 11.5 in the leanto, 8 in the saltinghouse.

                    1019.5 mBar, 30.1 in Hg, 764.7 Torr, 14.786 psi, (down from 1021 last night), 68% RH (Lidl electric).

                    Meanwhile on the 19th of March 2020 covbob, Brillo, and LM popped in.

                    Washing frenzy in progress.

                    Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: R4 waffling on about fake self employment.

                    Shirts in off the line & duly iRoned & airing upstairs.

                    Entertainment: TWATO with much about the Fugging Egyptian Grocer & his vile brother. Followed by a thing about Evelyn Waugh and "Black Mischief" which, it transpires, I have on a bookshelf across the room though I've never read it (two copies of course as is only rite & proper, like). Must get around to reading the Crouchback "Sword of Honour" trilogy, this being the one I recall listening to on the wireless some half century ago though bits of it were televised a couple of decades ago (2001 as it happens, with that Daniel Craig chap: good script but poor direction apparently).

                    Blue sky from horizon to horizon. Very sunny. .

                    Walk (unabbreviated, towpath) walked in the warm sunshine. Two layers fewer & I was still warm, too warm by the end.

                    Now outside a cup of mediocre yet consistent coffee.

                    Tea: Tesco breaded? battered? cod?: nice enough.

                    Everything in off the line & the last of it is in the TD to finish off.

                    Entertainment: PM. Disgusting septic heavy metal rock while they kill people. Fecking animals. The sooner that bunch are behind bars the better. Or underground. Especially that Orange Mother****er.

                    Scotland Yard:

                    Alice Roberts: Hospital through time:

                    The Bad Skin Clinic:

                      Lunch: a bacon butty

                      Sunny here now

                      My lower back has been grumbling this week, but it seems a touch better today
