    Long day ahead tomorrow, but pleased to report that even after the badger killed one of the hedgehogs, we still have at least 2 left.

    Anyway, it’s precipitating it down, and I’ve an early start, so, TFBSZ

    Turning a bit gloomy out, with rain expected soon

    Work being done, I popped round the corner to the shops. First, to the Post Office to drop off a damaged book for return to Amazon; and then to the chemists a couple of door away for the monthly stuff

    The Prime Minister emailed me earlier to assure me that he has every confidence in me. Nice of him to say so though, embarrassingly, he'd accidentally copied in the whole of the Civil Service. Even more of a blunder than that made by the new Secretary of State, who only copied in the entire department when he emailed to say how much he was looking forward to working with me. I daresay they'll get the hang of it eventually

    Afternoon all

    Dull, overcast. Much rain forecast but not yet presented itself. Currently 18 degrees and that's the high for the day. Barometer at 1013 mBar (1016 mBar according to the weather app).

    Today I have had a lazy morning and just gotten back from the hairdressers. Job hunting resumes.

    Yesterday I visited my Mum and my brother and I took her out for lunch ahead of her birthday this week (for which I have just remembered to order some flowers). The drive down and back was made more entertaining due to some very heavy showers but on the coast it was a sunny albeit windy day. I mowed the back lawn after lunch had settled.

    Lunch has been salmon baps with a bag of plain crisps

    I'll go years at a time without buying a tin of salmon, but I always enjoy it when I remember to get some

    or blame it on the nearest 4/5G mast, or CHEMtrails, or, if all else fails, - immigrants.

    Seems odd she felt dizzy when entering neighbour's garden at closest spot to the router. Wonder if my insomnia has similar causes, must make myself a tin foil hat.

    Morning.

    Monday.

    Dry.

    Sunny.

    Blue sky.

    Cool in here at 18.3 deg, 19 deg in the kitchen, 17 deg in the leanto, 13.6 deg in the saltinghouse.

    1009 mBar, 29.796 in Hg, 756.8 Torr, 14.6343 psi, (up from 1007 last night), 69% RH (Lidl electric).

    Meanwhile on the 18th of October 2019 there was much talk of Viz (whatever that is), Drunken Bakers (ditto), whilst I got wet wandering aimlessly around Neath as a coffin dodger.

    Shirts in the WM.

    Shirts out of the WM and pegged out on the line.

    Smalls in the WM.

    Smalls out of the WM and pegged out on the line.

    Cottons in the WM.

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

    Cottons out of the WM and pegged out on the line.

    Assorted other stuff that needed washing in the WM.

    Assorted other stuff that needed washing out of the WM and pegged out on the line.

    Shirts in off the line & roughly iRoned along with the tea towels.

    Lunch: scrambled egg etc.

    Entertainment during the above: The Infinite Monkey Cage: S21: Quantum stuff.

    The Infinite Monkey Cage: S21: UFOs. .

    The Infinite Monkey Cage: S21: Lucy Beaumont's Close Encounters. .

    S22 begins during lockdown.

    It's gone very dark so everything is in off the line, the cottons requiring the iRon have seen the iRon, everything else is airing upstairs.

    The jeans have proved not to be dry, the waistband is still remarkably damp, but the puffer jacket seems to have dried rather more than I'd expected.

    In further bad news the Freecell box is toast. Ho hum.

    Tea: soup etc.

    Raining.

    Entertainment: Veronica Mars S3 E3. The Armie Hammer football jock one.

    Abandoned Engineering. I wonder if this one will have any engineering in it. Berlin lime kilns. Amazon jungle hotel. Schindler's Factory. Moroccan fort in the Atlas Mountains.

    Morning denizens

    Sunny start for a change. Expected to get cloudier by lunchtime though. It's already 12°C and likely to reach 20°, while the barometers are up a bit more at 1003/1011mB

    Overcast and damp out, but at least it isn't tipping it down like it did every half hour yesterday

    This evening's viewing was Trauma Room 1 followed by a couple of old episodes of 24 Hours in A&E. I thought there was a new one of the latter, but it turned out to be a clip show

    Monday again tomorrow. At least there'll be a new Secretary of State, not that I ever get to move in such exalted circles

    Goodnight all
