    Afternoon all

    Sunny! With clouds. Currently 12 degrees and that's the high for the day. Barometer down to 1014 mBar.

    Sunrise 06:27; Sunset 17:57 GMT

    Busy morning. Many meetings.

    Finally getting the pillowcases etc. washed now that I've gotten around to putting the cleaned duvet cover away.

    Lunch was a cheese and ham toasted sandwich.

    Lunch has been a cold sausage bap (white)

    It’s rather Simpsonesque out now, though it still seems to be a bit chilly, judging by the fresh air coming from the open kitchen window

    Morning.

    Tuesday.

    Dry.

    Wanly sunny.

    Grey.

    Chilly in here at 13.7 deg, 1 something in the kitchen, 12 in the leanto.

    1010 and a tad mBar, 29.83 in Hg, 757.7 Torr, 14.65 psi, down from 1012 last night.


    Meanwhile on the 19th of March 2020 NF twinged his back cooking tea, then wheeled out the recycling wheelie bin, LM, and I popped in, whilst on the 20th Brillo, WTFH, and BR14 started the day off by popping in.

    Walk (unabbreviated, towpath) walked in the wan sunshine, grey gloom & picking with rain.

    Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: The 11:45 R4 thing again, this time with Bliar. TWATO.

    First cut of the big lawn, during which the picking with rain turned into drizzle but done it got. The compost heap is now well over 6 feet.

    Lots of moss: I can see another champion year for moss disposal & I haven't shifted last year's yet.

    A chilly 3C earlier, but now up to 5. no breeze and some light cloud, but a pleasant walk was had.

    The weather app insists it’s cloudy out, but in reality there’s quite a lot of cirrus and cirrostratus with plentiful gaps of blue sky between, so it’s actually sunny right now with occasional brief spells of shade. Apparently it’s going to get windy, leading to the claim that the current 6°C “feels like” 2°, and presumably the expected high of 11° will be similarly attenuated. The barometers are down a little at 1003/1011mB

    I read more of The Three-Body Problem, which I’m enjoying - the story seems to be developing in an interesting direction

    And I also got a bit of SwiftUI stuff working that I’d thought would be more complicated than it turned out to be

    Goodnight all

    Tea: lamb steaks with chips and beans

    This was accompanied by the final part of the Netflix thing about Three Mile Island. The capitalists got their way, as usual

    So he is!

    I checked the drone shot, but it wasn’t while I was there

    More leftovers for lunch

    The fog’s cleared, outside. In my brain, not so much

    Overcast but it seems a bit brighter than yesterday. Currently 10 degrees with a high of 14 expected. There might be a light shower this afternoon. Barometer down to 1020 mBar.

    Sunrise 06:29; Sunset 17:55 GMT

    Tired this morning. Hopefully I'll find my mojo in my coffee cup.

    Morning.

    Monday.

    Grey.

    Sunless.

    Dry.

    Dreary.

    Chilly in here at 13.8 deg, something in the kitchen, 12 in the leanto.

    1014 mBar, 29.94 in Hg, 760.6 Torr, 14.7 psi, (down from 1015 last night), 69% RH (Lidl electric).

    Meanwhile onthe 19th of March 2020 the feeling of impending doom increased, BR14, Brillo, scruff, LM, and NF popped in, along with a me.

    Shopping trip to Morrisons done dusted washed dried sanitised & put away.

    Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: last 15 mines of "Understand: how reading changed our brains", Gordon Corera's 2023 series about the glories of Gulf War II, the previous time our glorioius septic allies bombed the tulip of people in the name of "Freedom". Bliar stars in tomorrow's ep. . Fecking murdering lying bastard mother****er that he is. Not that I'm in any way judgemental.

    Walk (unabbreviated, towpath) walked in the grey gloom with some wan sunshine towards the end.

    Tea: Mr Brains faggots with peas & suchlike comestibles. Entertainment: PM. <click> UFO bollox on Blaze: it's UFO week, just in case anyone gives a tulip. .

    Skinwalker Ranch bollox on Blaze: the even more bolloxy version of The Money Pit with added UFOs, lasers, radiation detectors, UFO detectors, CCTV, giant wolves and more nutjobs than yyou can shake a stick at.

    All they miss out on are vikings, the Romans, the Knights Templar. But they do have a UFO buried under the mesa, so that makes up for it all.

    NCIS S22 E8 "Out of control". An out of control car that's driving itself. Obviously made by an associate of The Boring Company. . Goodness me, I hope it's not that easy to hack a car. .

    Misty out on our walk, but we met a couple from the next village who always bring dog treats with them in case they bump into Max. Apart from that and almost being run over by the recycling lorry, it's been an uneventful Monday morning.

    It’s foggy! Not even a bit misty, but a fairly decent fog

    It’s also 7°C, again, with an expected high of 12°, again. The barometers are down a little at 1007/1015mB. And it seems the cloud might clear a bit towards sunset
