Yesterday evening, HWMBO and I watched Mickey 17. Not bad. Some funny bits.

SPOOKY! - i just read the book this week.
disappointing, as usual.
I find it hard to find NEW concepts in scifi, everybody just rehashes previous work it seems.
Maybe reading it(scifi) almost exclusively since 1962 ish has jaded me somewhat.

Lunch: some leftover Thai bits from the other night

A bit garlicky for lunchtime TBH

The presentation took a while, as I needed to hunt down some reference information, but got done. Then I did some other document updates and called it a day around 4pm.

Now watching yesterday's Masters Snooker final while HWMBO makes my dinner.

Tea has been lamb steaks with chips and beans

This was accompanied by The Crash Detectives, in which nobody was killed this time - some life-changing injuries though. With various other serious offences also on the charge sheet, the arrogant young scrote responsible got nearly twenty years, which was nice

More reading of Stalingrad tonight; the Germans have nearly made it there. Not many will come back

Goodnight all

Morning denizens

Grey day again, and windy too boot. There are a couple of tiny gaps letting light in, very near the horizon to the west, and the bits of cloud being blown past them have the raggedy look that comes from stormy, or at least breezy, weather. It’s not expected to rain until tonight, but the wind is supposed to be getting stronger shortly, and it’s already strong enough that the temperature of 7°C “feels like” 0°; presumably the high of 8° won’t feel much better. The barometers are only down a little, at 997/1005mB

Morning all
Windy out. One of our bins had blown over, although that's not the biggest disaster... last night I put our garden waste out. It's collected every other Tuesday but they take 4 weeks off over Christmas. An embarrassing disaster on my part - the collecting is NEXT Tuesday. Not sure I can show my face in public for a few days.

Morning.

Tuesday.

Was dry now wet.

Windy.

Was slightly sunny now grey and sunless.

Chilly in here at 13 deg, 12 in the kitchen, 10.5 in the leanto.

998 mBar, 29.47 in Hg, 748.6 Torr, 14.4747 psi, (down from 1005 last night), 60% RH (Lidl electric).

Meanwhile on the 12th of March 2020 AndyGarbs, Brillo, BR14, and LM popped in, whilst NF rolled out the bins on the right evening and I was listening to some programme or other about coughs, there being a lot of it about. .

Shopping trip to Morrisons done dusted washed dried sanitised & put away. An early trip to avoid the rain which was singularly ineffective in thus doing. Ho hum.

Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: someone waffling about Werner Herzog, survivalists, people being eaten by bears, and cannibalism in the Andes. Y&Y <click>.

Foyle's War S3 E3 "They fought in the fields". The answers be in the soil. Plus a nasty Nazi assassin. Another one I have recollection of seeing before. Looks like I missed the entirety of S3. I wonder why. Wasn't working away in 2004. . Must have been watching sommat else instead. Probably some Septic trash or other.

Something else I was unaware of: beetroot is laxative. That explains that then. . I had wondered. .

Currently hammering down again, horizontally due to the semigale. It's making up for yesterday's glorious weather.

The clouds, as it happens, aren't travelling in their normal west to east, but more like south to north. Peculiar. Don't see that often around here.

Doesn't stop them raining though.

Book. Other book. Finished book. Found another book.

Tea: soup etc. Nice enough. Entertainment: PM <click> More of the doings of the Orange Mother****ing Moron. Oh where oh where is the likes of LHO when he's so badly needed?

Book. Other book.

"The Deadly Affair (1967)" with James Mason rather than Alec Guinness as George Smiley Charles Dobbs.
