Morning.

Monday.

Dry.

Blue sky with high not so wispy clouds. I shall shout at them shortly.

Morning denizens

Clear blue sky with only the merest of wisps in a couple of places, and the open overnight sky has helped cool things down: currently 12°C, though climbing to 21° later. There’ll be a few warmer days as the week progresses, but nothing higher than 24°, before temperatures plummet along with the coming of much rain, just in time for the Bank Holiday! The barometers are down a touch at 1011/1019mB

[WTFH]

Morning all
CBS, etc, with a very pleasant drop in temperature - almost an autumnal chill.
Farmers are out muck spreading which must mean they are expecting rain in the next few days.

Morning all, local time 0952

Blue sky! With lumps of fluff. Currently 15 degrees with a high of 17 expected. Might be a sunshine and showers type of day. Barometer up to 1011 mBar.

Sunrise 05:59; Sunset 20:47 EEST

Yesterday we ended up having a random wander about the old town and towards the harbour. Dinner was at an earlier time so we headed out to see a photography exhibition on the way. Managed to dodge the showers.

Today is our last day in Tallinn. I need to buy, and send, postcards.

[NickFitz]

There was some wildlife stuff on this afternoon, but I missed a lot of it because I was working on new forum stuff

Tonight, I read more of To Each This World. I’m getting into the story, but the writer has a couple of tics which grate on me slightly. Worth persevering with though, I reckon

Monday again tomorrow! At least there won’t be one next week

I noticed last week that I was getting tired again, particularly in the afternoon. Yet on Friday, I was fine. I suspect it was due to getting to sleep too late (and being able to sleep in later to make up for it on Friday) so I’m going to try to get to sleep at a more sensible time this week

Goodnight all

[NickFitz]

Lunch wasn’t anything, because I had a couple of croissants with strawberry jam for breakfast so I wasn’t hungry

And tea has been a pork cutlet with chips and beans

This was accompanied by a further episode of the Scottish paramedics on iPlayer

Sunny again with some very thin high and hazy stuff, but not a lot in the way of cloud apart from that. It’s 17°C but “feels like” 20° with the expected high being 22°; the barometers are up a bit more at 1014/1022mB

[ladymuck]

Afternoon all, local time 1207

Dull, overcast, damp. Currently 15 degrees ('feels like' 13) with a high of 16 expected. Moderate wind warning remains. Barometer down to 997 mBar.

Sunrise 05:56; Sunset 20:49 EEST

Lazy morning so far. Undecided what we will do this afternoon.

[DoctorStrangelove]

Morning.

Sunday.

Dry.

Sunny.

Blue sky.

19.8 deg in here, 20.3 deg in the kitchen, 18 in the leanto, 13 out the back.

1019 mBar, 30.09 in Hg, 764.3 Torr, 14.78 psi, (up from 1018 last night), 57% RH (Lidl electric).

Meanwhile on the 3rd of April 2020, between 05:39 and 07:59, AndyGarbs, Brillo, Churchill, MrMarkyMark, and WTFH popped in, with Brillo drivelling.

Walk (abbreviated, 3 miles) walked in the sunshine. Brisk breeze cooled things down on the way back.

Entertainment: Catrefi Cymru: conversions: a chapel converted into a house & inhabited by goths judging by the skulls & such. A barn conversion. Carnegie Library in Aberystwyth converted into a house. Goodness me, that was well built back in 1900 and something.

Dashcam nonsense.

More Dashcam nonsense.

Tea: baked spud & baked beans. Nice enough.

Entertainment: Secrets in the Jungle: they took 20 minutes to explain the Chevy Corvaire stuck in the Darien Gap. They also found a steam engine from some railway line the Evil British had built to a gold mine back in the day. Philippines: Giant rhino tooth, 700k years old with signs of butchery: presumably H. Erectus since neither Sap nor Neanderthals were around yet. Island off Brazil: full of golden lancehead snakes even more venomous that the mainland versions due to catching and eating migratory birds. Kenyan cave with a 78k yo child burial: oldest H. Sap. burial found in Africa.

If there be owt else to watch I ain't found it. Not even Danny Trejo since that finished last week.

DMAX bollox about ghost ships in the Bermuda Triangle. As in Marie Celeste type ships.

Dashcam bollox.

Ditto.

[NickFitz]

There was more new Monkey Life this afternoon, and then further wildlife stuff that hasn’t been repeated too many times before

Tonight, I started reading To Each This World by Julie E. Czerneda

Goodnight all

[NickFitz]

Tea was brought to me from KFC

[xoggoth]

Nice afternoon at local show, tea, cake and chat with people including the nice burlesque lady. Her rude poem was good, about stripping to classical music.

[NickFitz]

A crow just came swooping down and landed on the lawn carrying what appears to be an entire slice of white bread in its beak

[NickFitz]

Afternoon denizens

It’s another Simpsonesque day out there, still with a bit of a breeze. Currently 19°, it’ll soon reach 20° but stop there before heading back down to 10° before sunrise tomorrow; the barometers are ebullient, having jumped to 1011/1019mB

I’ve just unmade the bed and left the mattress to air. I shall have to decide whether to incorporate the duvet into the remaking process later, but I think I’ll be OK just chucking a throw on top for a few more days

[DoctorStrangelove]

Ah yes: "Crank High Voltage (2009)": the one with Jenna Haze and Ron Jeremy. .

Morning.

Saturday.

Dry.

Goodness me, the duvet was pressed into use overnight. Well there's a thing.

Washing frenzy in progress.

Dashcam nonsense. S6 E5, E6.

That requiring the attentions of the iRon has received it & is airing upstairs.

Entertainment: "In the beginning was the " as related by Stephen Fry: a 2009 programme mostly related to The Millennium Bug, that lovely little earner for us all.

Tea: soup etc.

Maigret "The Mistake (1960)". Different ending to this version from the Cremer version.

Dashcam nonsense.

Weird War thing. Hitler's talking dogs. Japanese assassination plot for Charlie Chaplin. Bazooka Charlie WWII (not the same Charlie). Theremin and The Thing.

Thing about the Afghan War(s). (Just the Soviets & the Septics, they missed out our three).

Dashcam nonsense. Very impressive ?Chinese? kids sticking a firework down a sewer grating: Bit Tip: don't stand on the manhole cover whilst doing this since it will launch you a good 10 feet into the air. One of the most impressive demonstrations of why not to do this that they've so far shown: the tarmac lifted like a ballon over a 10m radius and the manhole cover went about 15 feet.

Ditto.
