    Morning all
    Misty earlier on, but that has burned off, apart from in the valleys.

    A pleasant long walk was had earlier. Looks like it could be another hot one today.

      From what little I recall from nearly 60 years ago, falling off a James motor scooter at about 10 mph along a red ash road is pretty unpleasant. I dread to think what 100mph is like. .

      Morning.

      Monday.

      We lost. So much for the sombrero and the tequila. . It's a horned helmet and Aquavit next, then. .

      Dry.

      Grey.

      Sunless.

      Can't see the top of Drummau so it's either raining or about to rain.

      21.6 deg in here, 22.25 in the kitchen, 21 in the leanto.

      1014.5 mBar, 29.96 in Hg, 760.9 Torr, 14.71 psi, (down from 1017 last night), 68% RH (Lidl electric).

      Meanwhile on the 1st of April 2020 AndyGarbs, Anonimouse, churchill, eek, and wattaj popped in, while Brillo popped in a lot, with churchill finding that his late mum had "invested" in various scam gold coin "quarter sovs" that were a proper ripoff (as one might expect from the endless adverts on daytime tv) and the battery back up was even more of a ripoff. Fun getting old, innit? .

      Shopping trip to Morrisons started well then turned into a stagger due to the leg playing up again: done dusted washed dried santised & put away.

      Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: the random postcode thing on R4: OX2. Seemingly a hairdresser who doesn't wear shoes.

      Classic Movies: Flash Gordon (not to be confused with Flesh Gordon, a somewhat different production lacking music by Queen).

      Last 10 minutes of "Ride the High Country (1962)" with that Randolph Scott chap.

      45 minutes of following links about The Ropewalk, Neath.

      Further Out of Town with Jack Hargreaves. Wonder if he'll kill owt in this one.

      When the fun stops, STOP.

        Morning all

        Just a hint of a wisp from my vantage point. Currently 24 degrees ('feels like' 26) with a high of 32 expected. Barometer down to 1020 mBar.

        Sunrise 04:52; Sunset 21:19 BST

        I didn't stay up to watch the football. There was fortunately less comment on it on R4 Today than I feared too.

          Been wasting all morning trying to solve a MySQLI database problem for my small company. I deleted some columns for products we don't sell anymore, but when I list orders it is still using the old structure. WTF???

          Oh well, got an old fart meet up later at a nice local farm.

            Do you need to re-define indices and clear caches?

                  He’d fallen off the back of the bike when his mate who was driving pulled a wheelie, so the whole of his back was skinned
