Tea, then, has been roast chicken leg and chips with lashings of ketchup

Half the Christmas cards are written (involved a lot of sherry, which is only drunk when writing cards)

I didn't bother with any telly tonight, apart from some dashcam thing that was on for the umpteenth time while I was eating.
Early night now
Goodnight all

Morning.
Was dry when I filled the bird feeders, then it rained.
Grey.
Sunless.
Warmer at 14.3 deg in there, 13 deg in the kitchen, 12 deg in the leanto.
1010 mBar, 29.8252 in Hg, 757.56 Torr, 14.6488 psi, (up from 1009 last night), 76% RH.
Sunday.
Meanwhile in the preplague 8th of March 2019 some oik wanted to glue sheets of polycarb together but I couldn't find a respirator that allowed this when using The Nasty Stuff required, and a reference to dear old Rudyard Kipling, Afghanistan, and intermediate calibre rifles was included. Gunga Din got a mention too.
Walk (unabbreviated) walked in the grey gloom.
A wander around the estate has revealed that the sealing up of the garage windows with gunk has not been totally successful leakwise. Ho hum. Cannot figure out how the water is getting in, but there was a drop of water on the roof above the puddle.
Lunch: baked potato with cheese and baked beans, red corner yog, bramble jelly and marmalade on slices of toast, 0.91*1.79 pints of good Glengettie tea.
Entertainment: the food prog. TWTW.
Next door's cat has a rodent. I trust it will be despatched.
Shopping trip to Wilko for some bird seed. Stuff doesn't work. I've never grown any birds from it.
The rodent was duly despatched: probably a field vole if the interweb is to be believed.
There was an enormous dead rat on the pavement on the way to town last week.
Something had chewed its throat out.
Freecell score: 100% (of 13), running average 85%.
Tea: cumberland sausage and bacon with onion gravy, very toothsome, some peach slices, a yog, 0.91*1.82 pints of good Glengettie tea.
Entertainment: Some bollox or other on R4 until POTW came on with some irritating oik presenting and the first thing he presented was ISIHAC which led, inevitably to <click>
NZ Motorway Patrol. S4 E1 & E2: E2 has a helicopter crash on the central crashbarrier of the southern motorway.

Can't find the accident report though, or what happened to the pilot & passenger.
Ghosts US S1 E6. Quite funny.
No river nutters this week, so Simon Schama may be viewed instead. Somewhat somnolence inducing.
The Repaire Shoppe: Bus conductor's ticket machine, BBE 1978, kick boxing trophy, animated piano player music box thing.
Half an hour or so of "Quatermass & the Pit (1967)".Last edited by DoctorStrangelove; 27 November 2022, 23:33.When the fun stops, STOP.Comment

Morning denizens
Grey day out, with everywhere still damp from the overnight rain. Currently 11°C and not getting any higher than that, and the barometers have settled back a bit at 1004/1012mB
A good night's sleep was had without any pesky alarms to wake me earlier than needed, so I'm feeling quite refreshed this morning

Morning all
Copenhagen is overcast, dull and grey, a bit damp but no active precipitation. Currently 8 degrees and that's the high for the day.
Off to find a spot of brunch and have a mooch about. Need to suss out where a co-working place is and decide if I want to work from it tomorrow (it's not open today for me to do a full recce).Comment

I think those overlong adverts are "infomercials".Originally posted by NickFitz View Post
I remember being in Amsterdam years ago with the TV on the background while getting ready to go out and thinking that I was watching a very bizarre TV programme because an advert went on for what felt like 10 minutes! (And no, I wasn't watching QVC or similar shopping channel)Comment
