Morning.

Tuesday?

Dry.

Sunny.

Blue sky.

21.5 deg in here, ?22? in the kitchen, 21.5 in the leanto.

1019.5 mBar, 30.1 in Hg, 764.7 Torr, 14.786 psi, (down from 1021 last night), 70% RH (Lidl electric).

Meanwhile on the 28th of March 2020 BR14, eek, LM, NF, vetran & I popped in, with discussion of tonsils, tonsillitis, tonsillectomy etc.

Slept reasonably well: no covering required until 03:00, whereupon a single sheet sufficed until the usual weird dream woke me at about 06:20ish. This one seemed to involve some sort of trip to an interview, curiously enough with a lady colleague sleeping in the same bed as I, though no rumpy pumpy seems to have transpired. . better luck next dream. .

Shopping trip to that Tesco: 34 bus out, 4 bus back. Cuts down the amount of walking by 60%. Which, in this unbearable heat, is good. Easier on the knees too.

Now recovering with a mug of mediocre yet consistent coffee.

Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: a thing about joining up music or something. <click>

TPTV William Tell "The cuckoo (1958)". The Swiss not being keen on Austrians. Come with me if you want to live. .

Edd China & his fat friend and the Morris Traveller. Whoever they sold it to seems to put some considerable miles on it though it's not seen the MOT station since 2020 according to the DVLA.

Outback Wreckers, ah, spit mate. Howls of outrageous laughter.

Morning all

Sunny, no cloud from my vantage point. Currently 27 degrees with a high of 34 expected. Barometer down to 1028 mBar.

Sunrise 04:55; Sunset 21:02 BST

I know the news was saying Sunday was hottest overnight but I found last night to be the bigger struggle. I haven't switched the duvet because I lack the will to do a whole bed change at the same time. Technically, it's not necessary but if I'm going to the effort of wrestling with the duvet then I may as well do the whole lot. I'll deal with it at the weekend and suffer (not in silence) until then.

Some cold chicken bits for lunch

Not a hugely busy morning. The thing I’ve been working on is waiting for the stakeholders to say it’s done, but the relevant people are off today so our weekly meeting was cancelled. There are some data export bits that the other dev didn’t finish due to a mix of needing more info from a different team who control the place the data goes to, and checking some things with stakeholders again. So I’m mainly just poking at them to work out if there’s anything I could be doing

I was following a similar pattern of reasoning last night. It’s going to be a bit cooler later in the week, so I’ll stick it out for now. Next week will be even cooler, so a bed change at the weekend will be the time to decide how much duvet is likely to be required
