Really nice old fart meet up at ancient house. Sat near some people I know, unlike last one. Wandered enormous garden afterwards, 3 big lakes!

[NickFitz]

Ribs and chips for tea

To accompany this, E2 of Legends which is developing nicely

There’s a parade of shops on an estate in Liverpool (or supposed to be) in there which is the absolute spit of the shops I used to walk to school through when I was very young. Can’t be the same ones as they were knocked down years ago, along with the maisonettes

Ah yes, little Bobby Tables

I was thinking of Little Bobby Tables, but SQL Injection is taken care of by Django so I didn't have to check for that case. I thought of including him just for the fun of it though

Lunch has been a Pukka sausage roll

I’ve been dealing with data validation stuff this morning, so I’ve been writing tests for weird names such as “Null”

I got a few additional ideas from These unlucky people have names that break computers

Links are up

^^ strong sense of deja-vu with DrS's post yesterday; must be the "Al Zeimer's"



Morning all

Bright and sunny, dry, but cloudy. Currently 18 degrees with a high of 21 expected. There's a chance of rain but looks more likely overnight. Barometer at 1016 mBar.

Sunrise 04:50; Sunset 21:09 BST

Slept quite well, now with the summer duvet on. Still tired though.

Morning.

Monday.

Wet. Remarkably wet.

Grey. As grey as a 's arse.

Sunless.

Misty. Can just about see the other side of the valley over by there boyo.

Drizzly.

20.5 deg in here, 21.5 in the kitchen, 19 in the leanto.

1008.5 mBar, 29.78 in Hg, 756.4 Torr, 14.63 psi, (down from 1011 last night), 64% RH (Lidl electric).

Meanwhile on the 28th of March 2020 vetran built a shed and enjoyed an inherited rioja, whilst BR14 watched HSB & related well to Belker (whose dad had "Al Zeimer's disease" in one of the eps), LM had a chicken & leak pie, and NF placed his first interweb order with the Chinese, whilst, of course, Brillo popped in. (as per yesterday).

Today's dream before waking seemed to involve working somewhere again and being lost in that Swansea & unable to find my way to the station/car/whatever. I'm sure it's all deeply meaningless.

Shopping trip to Morrisons done dusted washed dried sanitised & put away. Finally realised that the way to get over the £30/£35 bonus thingie is to buy more cheese and corned beef. .

Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: Mangain & his sister waffling on about sibling rivalry. Soemthing about a nurse and London gangs <click>.

Remember when watching HSB and all the street gangs in that & thinking "well that doesn't happen here". . Long Long Ago and Far Far Away. It was all fields around here then. And David Caruso looked young.

Book.

Baim Collection: Margate. Though for some reason this included a trip to that France. .

Chuchill's Toy Factory: MD1: destroyed by the Ministry of Supply after Churchill's election loss & the end of WWII.

UFO bollox on Blaze: UK UFOs: Rendlesham forest starred.

Tea: chicken in white sauce etc. Entertainment: 18 o'clock news.

Skinwalker Ranch. S6 E13 "Fire in the holes". Odd ceramic stuff out of the mesa. Setting off big feck off explosions to make smoke rings. The usual tech problems with stuff doing things it's never done anywhere else. Last experiment of the season.

NCIS S22 E20 "Nexus". No indication if it's 6 or 7. EOS: only 20 eps this season.

Looks like I went shopping at the right time since it's been hammering down all afternoon & it's not taking any prisoners. Rivers flowing down the gutters as is only rite and proper, like. .

[WTFH]

Morning all
Dawn chorus at 04:21
Got up 05:28
Been clouding over since then, good job we had a big walk this morning as it's due to start raining in a couple of hours.

Sunny spells but largely cloudy at the moment, and it’s expected to veer more towards the cloudiness, with rain likely from teatime through the night and into tomorrow morning; it seems that this will be more along the lines of steady rain than showers. It’s 15°C (“feels like” 11°) and the expected high is a mere 19°, but the barometers are only down a whisker at 1002/1010mB

[NickFitz]

Today’s wildlife stuff wasn’t exclusively Attenborough for a change. But there was a good film of his about penguins

Later, I watched Surgeons: At the Edge of Life

And in The Middle Kingdoms, Bismarck has managed to unify a fair amount of Germany but left the Balkans in a complete mess, which will have reverberations for a long time to come

Monday again tomorrow, but what can you do?

Goodnight all

[NickFitz]

Lunch was a leftover pork cutlet in a wholemeal bap with apple sauce. And yes has been lamb steaks with chips and beans

In between those, I got quite a bit of useful work done on the forum

And I also stripped the bed and left it to air, so now I’ve got to go and remake that

[NickFitz]

Morning denizens

Lots of cloud, mainly in the form of masses of cumulus again, but also plenty of gaps letting the sun through pretty frequently. A bit more of a breeze today too, so the current 18°C “ feels like” 14°; the expected high is only 21°. The barometers continue downwards at 1003/1011mB

I had a decent night’s sleep and also fell asleep again for an extra hour when I was about to get up, so I’m feeling quite well rested

Bright and dry but cloudy. Currently 18 degrees ('feels like' 20) with a high of 23 expected. Barometer continues downwards to 1016 mBar.

Dinner last night was excellent and much fun was had.

Off to see Mum today.

I too have watched the first episode of Legends. It seems quite good but will see how the second episode comes out.

[DoctorStrangelove]

Morning.

Sunday.

Damp. Seems to have rained.

Grey.

Wanly sunny.

Bit of a breeze.

21.3 deg in here, 22 in the kitchen, 19 in the leanto, 18 in the saltinghouse.

1011 mBar, 29.85 in Hg, 758.3 Torr, 14.66 psi, (down from 1012 last night), 63% RH (Lidl electric).

Meanwhile on the 28th of March 2020 vetran built a shed and enjoyed an inherited rioja, whilst BR14 watched HSB & related well to Belker (whose dad had "Al Zeimer's disease" in one of the eps), LM had a chicken & leak pie, and NF placed his first interweb order with the Chinese, whilst, of course, Brillo popped in.

Strange dream about my garage, this one being somewhat different to the usual dream garage but there you go. Curiously I was running down the garden path in my underpants for some reason. . And there was a young lady jogging along at the same time . I think I was having to move house or something. Obviously wishful thinking in getting away from my much too close relative. I hope he/she/it wasn't the jogger: <checks memory>: No, thankfully not, it was a genuine female of the species. .

Washing frenzy in progress. Still dunno why I didn't do it yesterday when it was fine.

Shirts dried on the line enough to iRon & thusly met the iRon & are airing upstairs. The usual bird crap washed off one.

Entertainment: Archive Hour: The Louisville Lip in his own words: the last 5 minutes being rather sad.

Lunch: brunch. "Entertainment": thing about the ZionNazi Ben Gvir. Nice chap. All he needs is the death's head badge & he's there.

It rained. Smalls in the TD which is doing its usual random number generation thing.

Dozed to "Do re mi fah sol" by Hawkwind.

Walk (abbreviated, towpath) walked. 3 miles instead of 4. Observed some fish in the canal for the first time in ages. Quite large too, not tiddlers. And some tadpoles. In fact quite a lot of tadpoles so the frogs/toads have been busy. Seems a bit late for them, though.

Book. Other book.

Tea: beans on toast with scrambled egg. Entertainment: 17 o'clock news. A thing about My Little Pony. . Poetry from Hay <click>.

TPTV: The Directors: David Lean.

More Blazian bollox: History's Mysteries. Nazca Lines.

Sergeant Cork S5 E4 "The case of the hooded students (1966)". We seem to have skipped a few: S4 E6, S5 E1,2,3. Production values seem a bit higher and whatever they're reading it off seems in better condition. Audio is still remarkably bad in places so I watch it with subtitles turned on.

The Fonz again: this week: travel. Liked the Pontiac Fiero, the self incinerating car. Obviously a design feature that appealed to ReichsLeiter Musk, though in the case of the Fiero at least you could open the ******* doors when the thing caught fire. The RotorCycle and the Flying Platform look fun.

Mediaeval Murder Mysteries: Edward II. <click> Not interested in watching a thing about some poor sod having a red hot poker stuffed up his arse.
