    My dreams of that sort tend to involve heavy calibre handguns & rifles, rather than locking doors.

    As in "Go Ahead, Make My Day for Smith, Wesson, and me". .

    Lunch: chicken. tomato and lentil soup (of the herby variety) with a crust or two of wholemeal

    Still grey. Nothing exciting happening on the lawn today, or not that I've seen

    Morning all

    Dull and overcast. I wanted to say damp but it isn't. Currently 11 degrees with a high of 12 expected. The sun may make an appearance this afternoon. No rain forecast. Barometer down to 1021 mBar.

    Trying to tactically decide when to do my laundry as I'm off on hols next week. I want to get the bed changed so I have fresh(er) sheets to come home to whilst also ensuring I don't have a full laundry basket of wearables.

    Morning.

    Tuesday.

    Grey.

    Sunless.

    Gloomy.

    Dry.

    Chilly in here at 15.7 deg, 15.5 in the kitchen, 13.5 in the leanto.

    1017.5 mBar, 30.05 in Hg, 763.2 Torr, 14.7575 psi, (up a tad from 1017 last night), 67% RH (Lidl electric).

    Meanwhile on the 28th of November 2019 it was the 9th anniversary of NF's first heart attack, WTFH was thinking of sorting the drainage near the hen coop, and I was off to that Cardiff so had a shower whether I needed it or not. .

    I seem to have neglected to wish TPD goodnight last night. And on its birthday too! I blame the lurgy

    Anyway, I'd read a few more chapters of Casino so there wasn't much to report

    Grey day again this morning, and expected to continue so. Currently 8°C and not getting past 12°, with the barometers down a little at 1011/1019mB

    I believe I just heard the trundlings of bin day a couple of streets away out the back when I poked my head out of the bedroom window for a breath of fresh air, as is my wont

    The lurgy, meanwhile, can't make its mind up. So I feel a touch worse than is usual for morning and have a somewhat bunged-up nose, but nothing much beyond that

    Tea has been Nando's leftovers

    And this evening's viewing has been the first two episodes of the new series of A House in Time, which has changed tack (and cheated a little) by being about two apartment blocks, one in Marylebone and one in Berlin, and concentrating on their residents' various involvements in World War II

    Went into the office for a meeting that no-one else came in for, and it ended up being on Teams.

    My "innovative" crayon drawing got presented to the client, heavily promoted by chap at ConsultancyCo, so now it will be the key element of driving discussion at Wednesday's workshop that I hadn't been invited to. Now I have been invited, I see it clashes with a job interview, so I've had to reschedule that.

    Been feeling a bit lurgified today, yet again

    I felt quite off last night, and today brought sniffles and occasional sneezing along with a bit of a chesty cough getting started, as well as a headache that was bad enough by lunchtime that I took a couple of paracetamol

    However, I decided to go for my walk just now, in case it made me feel better. It hasn't, but it hasn't made me feel any worse either and I got some exercise, so I reckon that's a win

    No idea where I would have picked something up from though, given that I haven't been anywhere. Maybe Porton Down have started using Amazon or Deliveroo to help out with one of their experiments in spreading "harmless" experimental viruses
