      Morning.

      Dark.

      Dank.

      Dreary.

      Sunless.

      Warmer at 16.6 deg C in here.

      Wet.

      1019 mBar, 30.1 inHg, 53% RH.

      Wednesday apparently.

      The change in the weather seems to have brought on the aches.

      The Pustulent Zit is much reduced.

      Walk walked.

      Despite the forecast & the overwhelming gloom & greyness, it didn't rain on me.

      Lunch: poached tomato and scrambled egg on Morrisons sunflower and pumpkin seed toast (hopefully a thick crust), bramble jelly sandwich on Morrisons wholemeal sunflower and spelt bread, corner yog (unspecified), 0.91 pints of good Glengette tea.

      It's amazing how much better a decent walk makes one feel.

      Meanwhile the tinshed appears rather damper than usual, but some tinsheddery is pencilled in for this afternoon, though quite what I'm not totally sure.

      I'd put some guttering up on it if I had the bits or B&Q was open.

      The garage is slightly less damp after a touch of dehumidifying yesterday afternoon, whereas the tarp on next door's shed roof is now useless.

      Ho hum.

      I think I'll extract my stuff out of there and allow the remainder to rot.

      Found Yet More Xmas & birthday cards today, 3 binbags full to burn the next time the pyromania strikes.

      Tea: more of the roast lamb with carrots & onions, half a non individual xmas pud with custard, 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.

      Entertainment: Tudur Owen's TV Flashbacks on BBC1W at 19:30.

      Tower Bridge on 5 at 20:00.

      Cornwall & Devon Walks at 21:00 on ITV1+1.

      In other joys, her next door may have the chinese plague.

      And I have to go to the surgery tomorrow to get prescriptions & drugs.

      The Tower Bridge thing seems more inneresting than last weeks, until I remembered that I watched last week's at the same time as the other telly was showing the trumpian mob.

      Plus I dozed through the first 10 minutes of this one.

      Followed by History Cold Case: the Sterling Castle skeleton.

      Now: Embarrassing Fat Bodies wherein an unfortunate lady with J cup breasts is going for breast reduction surgery.

      I wonder if she knows what she's in for.

      Feck me there's some fat people on this.

      In good news, The Bad Skin Clinic is back soon.

      Feck me, the breast reduction is gross.

      7lb of tissue removed to leave her a mere DD.

      Dear Deity, now there's a lady having bits of her lady parts chopped up (rectocele). :fainting:

      There are things you just can't unsee.

      Feck me, a skinectomy is nearly as bad.

      5 hours to remove 9kg of skin.

      Nice job on the lady's breasts though.

                  Grey, damp day out. Currently 4°C and not getting any better, barometer 1007 v. 1015mB. Apparently the showers will become more steady rain shortly, then continue through the afternoon, evening, and night; and probably turn into snow tomorrow
