    Morning all, Berlin calling, local time 0450

    Dark. Can't see the weather. Apparently it's cloudy. Currently 0 degrees ('feels like' -2) with a high of 3 degrees expected. Barometer at 1001 mBar.

    Sunrise 07:44; Sunset 16:01 GMT

    Today we are off to Dubai, and will have up to 90 minutes to get through the transfer process before coming straight back again. Guess who forgot their headphones

      Morning denizens

      Seems a bit less cloudy today, and we’ll even get sunny spells! Cold again though, and a bit breezy: it’s 3°C but “feels like” -2°, aiming for a high of 8° - though only briefly this afternoon. The barometers are bouncing back at 1001/1009mB

      Just heard the sound of the first of the bin lorries doing its thing, for it is bin day!

        Morning all
        CBS, etc, but not as chilly as I was expecting. A pleasant walk was had.
        …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore

          So you flew to Warsaw so you could fly to Berlin so you could get up at an ungodly hour to fly to Dubai then immediately turn round and fly back to Berlin again? It’s one way of getting to Stromness for the weekend, I suppose

            Morning.

            Tuesday apparently.

            Dry.

            Blue sky.

            Sunny.

            Chilly in here at 13.7 deg, 11.5 in the kitchen, 8 in the leanto, 4 in the saltinghouse.

            1011.5 mBar, 28.87 in Hg, 758.7 Torr, 14.67 psi, (up from 1005 last night), 57% RH (Lidl electric).

            Meanwhile on the 3rd of February 2020 NF had watched STOS: III, whilst I'd watched "Unforgiven" earlier, LM suggested my leg needed a massage from a nubile young lady, eek popped in, WTFH had a smooth flight & too many Murphys, whilst the sun shone upon the assembled congregation, with blue skies all round, though with imminent cloud.

            Washing frenzy in progress.

            Walk (unabbreviated, towpath) walked in the sunshine.

            Something little & very very noisy flew down the valley at one point but I didn't have a clear view.

            Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: Y&Y scam watch <click>.

            Shirts duly iRoned & airing upstairs. Cottons & smalls meeting the TD.

            Entertainment: Monkey Cage S1 E3, 4. Xmas ep. I'd forgotten the first season had sketches embedded therein. Which seems a bit odd, but there you go & there they went.

            Washing frenzy completed with the aid of the TD.

            Tea: soup etc. Entertainment: PM.

            The Nazi programme: more Russia. Gotterdamerung.

                Morning everyone!

                Clear and chilly here - a nice frost on everything. Little CBx3 all off up the hill to school vaguely on time. Now I have the house all to myself - eerily quiet since the last mog departed this life the other week.

                  busy morning, PM in full panic mode <as normal for PM's>
                  thinks shouting will change basic engineering constraints <again, typical of PM's>
                  waste of space, the lot of them
