Lunch: Heinz oxtail soup with white toast

Very sunny out

And as I was typing, Halfords Man arrived and replaced the Corolla's battery!

It still took four or five goes to start though. Maybe it's the starter motor?

Just had a phone call from the dentist's to remind me I have an appointment with the hygienist on Saturday and asking if I wanted to switch to an earlier slot they had open. TBH I'd rather not go to the hygienist on Saturday at all, but if I have to then I suppose getting it out of the way earlier is the next best thing

Which reminds me that in standup this morning, somebody announced that they had a dental appointment at 2:30, which caused much amusement

That's the working week done!

Tea has been lamb steaks with chips and beans

Accompanied by Gregg-free Inside the Factory on the subject of sliced white bread, with asides covering wartime flour, bagels, toasters, and brewing

More of February 1933 read tonight. Getting close to the night of the Reichstag fire now; people are leaving Germany by circuitous routes to avoid attracting the attention of the authorities, and other people are casually saying goodbye after routine meetings but, we are told, will never see each other again. More of the same coming soon across an Atlantic Ocean near you

I also found time to mess around a little with SpriteKit's physics modelling, which has some interesting stuff in it

Goodnight all
