Little "book reading", aka nattering group this afternoon. As usual I had not got round to reading anything. Nice walk after, just after a deluge of hail.

Tea tonight was chicken madras with rice and naan

To go along with this, the rest of the Police Interceptors from last night

I never got around to doing anything about the sink, as I decided that’s the kind of thing I’d rather leave to a day I’m not working. I worry that something catastrophic will happen whenever I do anything involving plumbing, even if it’s just pouring gloop down the plughole to eat away any gunk

There were intermittent downpours and sunshine. I managed to get out a lunchtime during the sunny part of the day.

A very frustrating day. The programme manager keeps interfering and has decided to change how things will be done rather than leave people to just get on with getting stuff done. Apparently the best way forward is to reinforce siloes...

HWMBO is cooking me dinner and the delicious wafts coming from the kitchen are making me feel hungry.

Tonight I continued reading Death’s End

Thursday tomorrow!

Goodnight all

Morning denizens

Bright, sunny day out with barely a wisp of cloud in the sky. The wind’s dropped too, though there are supposedly occasional gusts. It’s a cool start at 3°C with an expected high of 9°, and the barometers are soaring upwards at 1010/1018mB

Thursday!

Morning.

Thursday.

Damp.

Sunny.

Blue sky in parts.

Chilly in here at 13.6 deg, 12 in the kitchen, 10 in the leanto.

1019 mBar, 30.09 in Hg, 764.3 Torr, 14.779 psi, (up from 1016 last night), 60% RH (Lidl electric).

Meanwhile on the 22nd of March 2020 AndyGarbs popped in a lot, whilst I was quietly lusting after that lady on the Mediaeval Maps thing.

Walk (unabbreviated, towpath) walked in the wan sunshine/grey gloom. The house in Tonna with A4 sheets stuck on the window & the front door has been ?repossessed?: they cleared it out yesterday.

Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: R4 thing about WWII in Asia. Evan Davies telling us how wonderful heatpumps are.

Book. Other book.

Tea: beans on toast with baked spud etc. Nice enough.

Entertainment: PM. <click>

From the looks of things there's nowt to watch on the idiot lantern again.

I am increasingly missing the dim & distant days of buying regular jeans in M&S for £9 a pair. Had I known then what I know now I'd have bought several dozen.

BBC4: Alice Roberts waffling on about 70 years of BBC clips about Stonehenge. Fell asleep for some of it.

BBC4: "The sense of an ending (2017)". Not sure I got a lot of sense out of that, but there you go.

[WTFH]

Morning all
Mostly blue skies and a chilly start to our walk, but the lack of breeze made it a very pleasant temperature for most of it.
Off to the dentist shortly.

Mahjongy thing this morning. Toothpaste inspection later followed by boring shopping. Need some reading glasses, having lost yet another pair somewhere. Poundland sell 3 pairs of glasses for 6 quid, seem just as good as ones from Boots etc that cost hundreds each.

Morning all

Brr... Sunny with occasional lumps of fluff. Currently 8 degrees ('feels like' 5) with a high of 9 expected. Barometer up to 1023 mBar.

Sunrise 05:50; Sunset 18:24 GMT

Up early (but not as early as yesterday) to take my car to the garage for the repairs following that incident with the Uber driver. Expect to get it back tomorrow.

Completed a task I had been putting off / ignoring for gig2. Nothing like a looming deadline to motivate oneself. In this case, it's a meeting this afternoon.

It's cold in my little office. I have a blanket and my hot air blower.
