Morning all
Woke up 15 mins ago and decided it was too late to try to go back to sleep, then remembered the Ashes. That will keep me occupied until it’s time to take Max out for a perambulation.

[WTFH]

A pleasant walk has been walked.
TFIF, etc.

Morning denizens

Sunny start, though with wisps and layers of cloud hither and yon. Bit colder today: 3°C now supposedly “feels like” -2° and sunlight will only get us to 7° - though rain will arrive tonight and warm things up, with a leap to 9° before midnight! The barometers are up a bit at 992/1000mB

Morning.

Friday.

Damp.

Wanly sunny.

Chilly in here at 13.3 deg, 12 in the kitchen, 9 in the leanto.

998.7 mBar, 29.49 in Hg, 749 Torr, 14.485 psi, (down from 999 last night), 61% RH (Lidl electric).

Meanwhile on the 4th of March 2020 LondonManc, DaveB and NF popped and contributed to the LM inspired discussion of Soreen and cake whereas I sent some of my tea to the compost heap for some reason and then watched "Two mules for Sister Sarah" which isn't amongst my favourite Eastwood epics by any means.

Walk (abbreviated due to inclemency of the weather, towpath) walked. It rained on me.

Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: the last ep of the Tom Stoppard biog.

Stone me it's getting darker & darker.

Stone me: it's down to 986 mBar. Thought my ears were popping. .

Tea: chicken in white sauce etc. Entertainment: PM. Ian Duncan Baldy: <click>.

Hammering down now. .

Taggart: S3 E7 "Cold Blood" an Xmas hols ep: you can tell because it's plainly high summer. The one where a chap is shot by his wife using a .357 magnum whilst he's sat "sleeping" in his car. It's a 2 hour ep, the other giveaway for an Xmas ep.

Afternoon all

Cloudy but bright enough. The ever-present chance of rain remains. Currently 7 degrees ('feels like' 3) and that's the high for the day. Barometer down a snifter to 994 mBar.

Sunrise 08:30; Sunset 15:46 GMT

Back in that London I'd be getting an extra 48 minutes of daylight

Clashing meetings this morning meant I attended the one that wasn't recorded then watched the recording of the other afterwards. Neither truly required my attendance and I definitely didn't have to input anything.

Chat yesterday with ex-client was interesting. They have moved onto a different organisation. It's public sector yet outside IR35. In two minds over it as it'll be full on, full time and I quite like the easy life I have at the moment with my two little gigs. But stretching the old grey matter may do me some good too.

New car ordered, hoping for delivery before Christmas.

Go on then, I'll bite. What did you get?

I know it's not a Porsche, I'm not stupid with my money (any more). Priced up the Audi equivalent and it was £18k extra for the 4-ring badge.
