    Morning all
    CBS and
    Force of habit.
    Misty/mizzly out - not enough to be of any benefit to the garden, but enough that I had to take my glasses off while walking the dog as they were becoming difficult to see out of.

      Hmm. Supposed to be up to 43% chance of rain this morning. No sign of it yet. Old arty farty thing later.

        Morning.

        Tuesday?

        Unpleasantly dry.

        Grey.

        Sunless.

        23.5 deg in here, 24.8 in the kitchen, 23 in the leanto, 21 out the back.

        1006 mBar, 29.7 in Hg, 754.6 Torr, 14.59 psi, (down from 1009 last night), 65% RH (Lidl electric).

        Meanwhile on the 2nd of April 2020, between 19:22 and 19:48, eek, LondonManc,

        MrMarkyMark, WTFH and I popped in.

        Entertainment: Dimbleby waffling on about Vietnaaaaam and the oik, Walt Rostow, who thought the Septics could bomb it into submission. Turned out they couldn't.

        Never mind, they made Guatemala safe for United Fruit. .

        Next time: Paul Wolfowitz. Another genius.

        Walk (abbreviated, 3 miles) walked in the cool breeze, it warmed up towards the end.

        Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: Sky Arts Art in Film. Biopics. Meh.

        The thing about placenames Yng Nghymraeg.

        Book. More rich bastards. Green being amongst them.

        Look at Life: (1960) Rallying, the 1959 RAC rally at a guess. Raymond Baxter commenting. Look at Life entered a Humber Snipe. A Saab won the men's rally, whilst a Ford Anglia (oh the shame) won the ladies. Remembering that in those days Rover used to enter the P5 3 litre in some rallies.

          Morning all

          Dull and cloudy with flecks of grey. Looked damp out earlier but all such evidence has now gone. Currently 23 degrees ('feels like' 25) with a high of 24 expected. Low chance of rain all day. Barometer down to 1011 mBar.

          Sunrise 05:51; Sunset 20:18 BST

          Quiet day today. No dramas expected. Will be packing later for holiday that starts tomorrow.

            Lunch has been a pancetta omelette

            Not exceptionally busy today. One of the finance people spotted that some values seemed to be incorrect in one rather specific spot in a huge table, though it wouldn’t affect anything as any analysis involving what those figures ought to be is done elsewhere. It still ought to be displayed correctly though, if only to avoid any confusion! My investigations into the source of the problem have indicated that it could arise in one of three or four different places, all of which are in code that hasn’t been touched in six years or so. So it’s not my fault and, given nobody has noticed it before, not that important
