After a bit of the motorway-avoidant police thing, tonight's viewing was the final episode of 7/7 on iPlayer

And then I finished reading February 1933 which actually continues until March 15 as it describes the various things the Nazis got up to as soon as they'd rid themselves of the constitution and any pretence at being constrained by law. On that basis, I give the USA until late February or early March

Goodnight all

HWMBO and I are having breakfast and deciding what to do with our day. We forgot swimming cossies so a trip to the shop may have to happen.

Morning all late checkin from me today, other things distracted me, like the stunning sunrise while out walking. Blue skies and sunny here now, but quite chilly in the shade, almost like it's January or something. The back of the house is warming up nicely in the sun, in fact thinking about it, I might de-camp to the dining table this afternoon for the sunshine and warmth, compared to my north-east facing office.

Lunch has been Scotch broth and a bit of wholemeal

Having to get through the soup over the last few days as I made too much stuff that wanted space in the freezer at the end of last week

[WTFH]

With all the stuff going on on this site at the minute, I thought I would share something which has made me smile for a couple of months.

Chicken and chips for tea

Tonight's viewing was an episode of the BBC thing with Hannah Fry (can't remember the series title) explaining how Amazon's Alexa works, with reference to SIGSALY, Hedy Lamarr, Jack Kilby, and others

Later, I started reading Apollo 13 by Jim Lovell and Jeffrey Kluger. I wonder if dumb Hollywood execs insisted the ending be changed when it was made into a film?

Goodnight all

Looks like it's a bit of a cloudy start making it a bit darker than it needs to be, really. Mild though, being 7°C and climbing to 9° later; the barometers are trivially up at 1021/1029mB
