Close shave. Was waiting for loony lady1 at local National Trust place and NOT loony lady 3 came up to me. When ll1 came out of the bog I told her it was just someone I knew from my group walks. She don't like me seeing other ladies even though we are not a thing.

Ham toastie for lunch

The white loaf turned out very well

Unfortunately, I managed to cut myself with the ultra-sharp bread knife while slicing it up for freezing. Just a small cut on the edge of a finger by the nail, but it bled a lot

Morning denizens

It’s sunny and Simpsonesque out, but not getting too hot: 15°C now, but not pushing past 19°, which is sensible of it. The barometers are bouncing back at 1002/1010mB

I awoke not long after the alarm would have woken me had it been set, which it wasn’t. This was clearly far too early, so I went back to sleep and reawoke a couple of hours later; and I feel much better for it. I’ve been getting to sleep later than I should have been this week, so I had some catching up to do

[xoggoth]

Nowt exciting. Loony lady 1 walk later.

[WTFH]

Morning all
TFIF, etc. Light cloud, but dry.

Morning all, Tallinn calling, local time 1127

Sunny with lumps of fluff. Rain set to return this afternoon/evening. Currently 18 degrees ('feels like' 21) with a high of 20 expected. Barometer at 1007 mBar.

Sunrise 05:52; Sunset 20:55 EEST

Yesterday I had a brain fart and got myself confused about how far north we were and couldn't understand why sunset in Glasgow was before here

Dinner was in the hotel yesterday as we were both knackered. It has a very good Nikkei restaurant, decently priced.

Today we are doing more exploring of the old town. There's lots of independent shops, which is always nice to see.

Meanwhile on the 2nd of April 2020, between 21:51 and 22:09, Brillo posted a lot, whilst NF got a post in edgeways.

Walk (abbreviated, 3 miles) walked in the bracing air of the morning. Took a while to warm up, but the hill up from the lock certainly helped with that.

Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: Sky Arts: Film thing: Korda.

Dan Do repeat.

Expedition thing waffling on about Brother XII and de Courcy Island off British Columbia.

Jack Hargreaves Old Country:

Tea: Mr Brains faggots etc. Entertainment: PM.

I finished reading Station Eleven tonight. Excellent book

The white loaf seems to have turned out very nicely

I don’t think we’ve had any more rain, but it still seems a bit windy out. It looks like tomorrow will be sunny but, thankfully, won’t get any warmer as a result

Goodnight all

My walk this afternoon was scuppered by a road closure, alternative long route had big queque of traffic. Was going to do a nearer walk later and it started pouring down. Ended up just wandering round the village.

Back in May, I got some lamb mince for shepherd’s pie, but it got too hot for that, so the mince has been in the freezer all summer. Yesterday I cooked it and left it in the fridge overnight for the flavours to develop, and this evening I finally had the pie

I also put the dishwasher on, and started a white loaf in the bread maker. And I paid the car tax too. So it’s been quite a productive evening so far

It’s not rainy as such, though there have been a couple more showers, but it’s got very breezy now

[NickFitz]

Another week done!

Lunch was nothing, because I went and did the shopping at Not-as-Big Sainsbury's. I thought I’d have time to grab a quick bite when I got back, but the journey out was initially slow because, it transpired, of a fender-bender about a mile down the main road, and then it turned out the roadworks on the dual carriageway have got even worse. But I kept myself going with a few ginger nuts and coffee during the developer huddle mid-afternoon

There were a few stray spots of rain as I trundled the shopping back to the car, but it held off pouring until I was home. There’s been a number of showers, some quite heavy, and it looks as if there’ll be another soon

Lovely flight with Air Baltic, superb service.

First impressions of Tallinn are good. Got soaked walking around the old town.

[WTFH]

I don't mean to boast, but I've just ordered 1000l of oil.

Mahjongy thing this morning (I came last - bah!) followed by visit to a neighbour to see her portrait on the wall. Nice quirky garden they've got, mine is too boring. Supposed to be 60% chance of rain this afternoon.
