Morning all

Dull and damp start to the day but it seems to be brightening up a bit. Currently 14 degrees with a high of 16 expected. No further rain forecast. Barometer up a smidge to 1023 mBar.

ConsultancyCo has hired a permanent person, due to start in January, which I think will definitely mark the death knell of my engagement with them. Clock's a ticking to get another role lined up.

Morning.

Tuesday.

Damply dry.

Wanly sunny.

Meanwhile on the 25th of November 2019 there was much discussion of foods for tea, whereas Brillo was comforting some young lady on a bridge somewhere.

Misty out, but at least it wasn't raining.

Grey start again, but relatively mild again: 11°C now, leading on to 15° later. The barometers seem fairly positive too, being up slightly to 1011/1019mB

The bin wagon (grey bins) has just passed by

[NickFitz]

I finished Falling. Good thriller

Tomorrow, the people I've been shadowing have a lot of meetings, so I get to write some code while they're doing that. Makes a nice change

Goodnight all

Tea has been KFC leftovers

Accompanied by a new episode of the Gloucestershire plod, who appear to spend about 80% of their night shifts dealing with drunken idiots outside W H Smiths on the High Street in Cheltenham

[NickFitz]

Back to the situation where the living room light, which is programmed to come on fifteen minutes before sunset, is already on when I finish work

[xoggoth]

Tank de lawd I ain't feeling tired like yesterday. Just been round to visit me housebound neighbour. Ate too many biscuits!

Pâté on white bloomer toast for lunch

It continues grey and a tad murky here

I am trying to get my creative crayons working today.

Overnight rain has left the lanes a bit wet, but otherwise a pleasant walk was had.

Morning.

Monday.

Grey.

Dark.

Dank.

Dreary.

Drizzly.

Wet.

Sunless.

Chilly in here at 16.5 deg, 16 deg in the kitchen, 14.5 deg in the leanto.

1015.5 mBar, 29.987 in Hg, 761.687 Torr, 14.728 psi, (down from 1017 last night), 66% RH (Lidl electric).

Meanwhile on the 25th of November it was grey & raining & NF remarked on the bus windows being steamed up by the soggy hoi polloi within, covbob popped in for a visit having gone to the dark side in the NHS but with possibilities of a change for the better with an interview he'd forgotten applying for, whereas the Oak Island nutjobbery were busy finding wood, this being all they ever find, plus a 1963 dime which gave some return on the investment. .

No walk: endless rain.

Freecell score: 96%, running average: 79%.

Lunch: there was brunch.

Due to the endless rain I fixed an old Dansette RT111 transistor radio that I've owned since I was 6. Turned out the problem was some 2nd hand resistor I'd grafted in about 40 years ago. I left the 'orrible Hunts and Plessey electrolytic capacitors alone.

Firkled about with the bedroom radio: we shall see if the crackle is cured.

Tea: chicken in white sauce etc. Made a change, haven't had that for a while.

Entertainment: whatever was on R4 at 18:30ish.

Simon Schama waffling on about The Sea. It was tedious.

Oak Island nutjobbery: the cut coin turns out to be "Roman". What did the Romans ever do for Oak Island? The metal detecting moron finds an iron pin in the swamp. So once again, we ain't found tulip. . Twas ever thus.

Planes that changed the world: Douglas DC3.

Morning denizens

Grey and windy start after a rainy night. The insulating layers of cloud are working though: already 12°C and expected to reach 16°. The barometers are back down a little to 1006/1014mB

Monday again. Just got to make it through seven more weeks before I start my extended Christmas and New Year break

[NickFitz]

No further telly tonight, but I read some more of Falling

It's turned windy and just started raining here. Going to carry on that way for a while, it seems

Monday again tomorrow

Goodnight all
