    It is today... but yesterday is was 17°C. In summer it's usually in the high 20s. Continental climate, don'tcha know?

    Put up coving around the office ceiling.

    I'm exempt from decorating on 'working billable days' grounds.

    I suppose a plus side of this thing is that it's not happening at the start of winter, Can spend time in garden.
    Get her some marigolds and tell her to crack on

    The good news is - the garage is at least a two-weekend job.

    Mid-April onwards is looking bleak though.

    Not going to rehearsals, show's been cancelled...

    Not going volunteering with the National Trust, house has been closed

    Not watching the rugby, there isn't any.

    Not watching the Grand Prix highlights, there wasn't one

    Not going to the quiz night, the pub's shut.

    Not getting drunk, wine delivery hasn't happened.

    Not going away in the motorhome for a change of scenery, it's away having minor surgery and the parts are coming from Italy...

    Not visiting the daughter on Mother's Day, she's in an at risk category.

    So a full and entertaining weekend is beckoning... not...
