Morning.

Monday.

Dry. (For the moment).

Grey.

Sunless.

Chilly in here at 12.8 deg, 11.5 in the kitchen, 10 in the leanto, 6.8 in the saltinghouse.

995 mBar, 29.38 in Hg, 746.3 Torr, 14.43 psi, (unchanged but a tad), 66% RH (Lidl electric).

Meanwhile on the 13th of March 2020 Brillo, BR14, and Churchill popped in (the latter having a pot noodle), whilst LM observed that Ocado was doing well and I observed that the weather was too inclement to bother with the washing, whilst NF locked the back gate then unlocked it after discovering the bins hadn't been done, whereas WTFH went for a drive.

Washing frenzy in progress. Everything pegged out on the line: currently mostly horizontal.

Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: thing about dry stone walls.

Stuff in off the line & in the TD.

Shopping trip to Morrisons done dusted washed dried sanitised & put away.

Timed to the second: came back & the rain arrived on cue.

Entertainment: Foyle's War S4 E3 "Bleak Midwinter". The shell filling factory one. Not a favourite.

Everything requiring the iRon now iRoned & airing upstairs.

Tea: Mr Brains faggots and peas. Nice enough.

Entertainment: PM.

STNG: "The chase": the Prometheus one: mildly amusing with Klingon, Romulans, Cardassians, Uncle Tom Cobley & all.

Panorama: The Post Office Horizon scandal.

Oak Island nutjobbery.

NCIS S22 E2 "Foreign Bodies". Venezuela. . Next sunday: Secrets in the ice

Some other bollox on Blaze: it's very likely to go <click> rapidly.

Morning all

Overcast, slightly damp. Currently 4 degrees with a high of 7 expected. Unlikely to rain but the threat persists. Barometer at 1002 mBar.

Sunrise 07:48; Sunset 16:40 GMT

The journey home yesterday was uneventful, despite having to use the Piccadilly instead of the Lizzy Line from the airport. I purposely blocked my diary out until 10 am to have a gentle start to my Monday and it seems no-one noticed nor cared.

Still waiting on gig 3 to produce a contract. At this rate, I might tell them to sod off.

Lunch has been a cold roast chicken leg with a bag of plain crisps

I’m feeling a bit out of sorts today. The kind of feeling where one might be coming down with a cold (or worse) or it might just go away after a day or two

[xoggoth]

Me too NF. Had horrid cough for a while, then thought it had all gone away on Saturday but it's back. May have to skip my arty thing tomorrow.

PS Maybe I could have passed it to you via tpd. I bet that green vomiting emoji at the right is passing things on.

Tea: oniony chicken casserole. Haven't had that in a while

It almost ended up not being very oniony, as I forgot to chop up and fry an onion before browning the chicken. Luckily I was using the very big frying pan, so I was able to sort that out while the chicken was doing and get it to a reasonable state before chucking everything in the Remoska

Sadly likes were disabled some time ago.

They did well. The other team got a few more early answers. The rest of the time they were well matched.
