Yeh, bluddy annoying when they stop selling favourite things, used to like those low sugar apple pies, Weight Watchers ready meals and various other things I can't remember.

They’ve also stopped making the Taste the Difference mango chutney that was the basis of my delicious BBQ sauce

The Lockerbie thing seems quite good, judging by the first episode. Nice to see the Scottish police taking the FBI down a peg or two when they tried to muscle in as if they owned the place

Later, I finished reading The Parable of the Talents, in which things ultimately turned out OK

But that’s the end of that; she had intended to write three more books taking the story far into the future, but had terrible writer’s block for two or three years and had to abandon that plan, writing other books instead in her remaining years

Goodnight all

Morning all
Overcast and very humid out. Just had to go check that the weather station was working... 19C, 93% humidity.

Morning denizens

Cloudy start, but the hot weather isn’t quite over yet: it’s already 20°C and will reach 27°, though the rest of the week will stay in the low twenties. The barometers are down to 996/1004mB

I’ve got to go to the GP’s for Yet Another Blood Test™ at lunchtime. It’ll be 25° at that point, which on past experience will probably lead to the nurse pointing out that “you’re sweating and look a little flushed, do you experience these symptoms often” and having to be reminded that while she’s been sitting in an air-conditioned surgery, I’ve been walking through the park in the sun

Damp, very, verging on actually wet on the garden path.

You lucky sod! Wish there was some way of getting rid of that horrible shiny thing here in the SE.

Off to old farty arty thing soon. Must post b day cards to sons.

Today we're off to the Kelpies and for a ride on the Falkirk Wheel. HWMBO's niece and family (the ones he did the BBQ for) are passing through so we're meeting up. HWMBO's eldest is doing the driving. Hurray for child labour.
