Morning all, local time is 0706

Sunrise will be at 0714. Currently 11 degrees and that's the high for the day. Today's forecast is intermittent showers, around lunchtime and early evening. Otherwise dull and cloudy. Barometer up to 1020 mBar.

Dinner yesterday was a fun evening with a nice home cooked meal.

Seattle has a good selection of decent to high quality postcards at reasonable prices. This pleases me greatly.

Ham toasties for lunch

Tending towards the Simpsonesque out now

Several meetings this afternoon, but not all of the tedious kind

And I think I'm just about done with what I'm working on, so they'll help fill the time until the start of the long weekend!

Shirts in the WM.

Shirts out of the WM & pegged out on the line.

Morning all

Overcast and warm (12C) on our walk, thankfully I noted the temperature before choosing a jacket.

Back in, and have watched the JL advert. I didn't see anything obvious in it to raise the blood pressure of wailers, but I'm sure they'll find something to be offended by.

Morning denizens

Somewhat cloudy start after some overnight rain, but clearing towards the east so getting sunnier later. A bit milder as a result, being 9°C but only getting to 12°. The barometers are down a bit but still optimistic at 1020/1029mB

Today we wandered around Pike Street Market (the birthplace of Starbucks, we didn't go to that bit) and then took a wander down to Pioneer Square.

It's now nearly 4pm and we'll soon be getting ready to visit a university friend of HWMBO's for dinner.

[DoctorStrangelove]

I must have blinked & missed that bit. . Then again much of E3 was "watched" with the sound muted.

[NickFitz]

And what was the opinion thereon?

There are times when the Lucan-hunting chap's obsessive nature gets a bit exasperating, but it's worth persevering to the (surprising) end

This evening's reading has been a bit more of Lying for Money, with some interesting lessons in business strategy from the accountant to the Kray twins

Thursday tomorrow!

Goodnight all

[DoctorStrangelove]

Accompanied by the final episode of Lucan

And what was the opinion thereon?

[NickFitz]

Tea has been shepherd's pie. Very tasty

Accompanied by the final episode of Lucan

[NickFitz]

Another Scrambled Maps that seemed like it would be a nightmare but I got it in ten moves, though helped rather by seven or eight tiles (of 25) being in the right place to start with

Quite nice meeting at pub this morning with local history society bunch, all old farts as usual. Nice sunniesh walky later.

[xoggoth]

This evening, I finished The Peepshow in which the death penalty was eventually abolished

I was wondering why such a subject would be covered in a David Mitchell comedy episode until I Googled it.

[ladymuck]

Meanwhile on the 1st of December 2019 LM was surrounded by fost & frog, and, in a Cunning Plan had smashed 6 dinner plates & a pyrex dish at a family do the previous evening.

I remember that event. The family still take the mickey out of me for it.
