Some nice people about. I asked the builders filling a skip up the road if I could pay them to take away two sacks of plasterboard, as my local tip won't take it, and they insisted on doing it for free.

Morning.
Thursday apparently.
Dry.
Grey.
Gloomy.
Sunless.
Chilly in here at 17.2 deg, 17 in the kitchen, 15.5 in the leanto.
1023 mBar, 30.21 in Hg, 767.3131 Torr, 14.84 psi, (up from 1018 last night), 63% RH (Lidl electric).
Meanwhile on the 21st of February 2020 BR14 popped in, had dinner, and watched more Hill Street, whereas I watched Death Wish I and Death Wish II, followed by some prog on Dmax about a luny building a buggy for a desert race somewhere, NF remarked that it had got dark, and LM was out on the lash. Hic.
Walk (unabbreviated, towpath) walked in the grey gloom.
Lunch: brunch.

Rather grey and cloudy here. It was light cloud with blue visible behind, but has become rather murkier in the last half hour or so.
Strong dose of CBA today.

Well, this was the problem: there wasn't a recipe really! The beef needed to be used and I fancied something spicy so I just tried chucking stuff in, vaguely hoping it would turn out OK
I think I might have Googled a bit first, but that's about as far as I got so it's not really surprising it turned out the way it did. I've known people who can throw together a delicious curry just by eyeballing various spices as they go along, but they've obviously had more practice than me

Blue sky with occasional lumps of fluff. I looked them up and they're either cirrocumulus or altocumulus (I'm leaning towards the former). Currently 9 degrees with a high of 17 expected. Barometer up to 1027 mBar.
Sunrise 07:15; Sunset 18:21 BST
I have a CO detector/alarm to pick up from Argos at some point today as the one provided started beeping, and continued beeping even after new batteries were installed. I therefore decided to just replace the unit.

Morning denizens
Grey start again, much the same as the last few days. It's 9°C and expected to be 16° by lunchtime, depending on when one has lunch. The barometers are up to 1014/1022mB
Most importantly: Thursday!

It's not that good, to be honest. Edible, but nothing special. I should find a proper recipe next time I want to make something like that

In Random Acts of Senseless Violence, our diarist's family have had to move to a smaller, cheaper apartment uptown, supposedly temporarily. But given such aspects of the ongoing collapse of society as she happens to notice while concentrating on the usual concerns of a 12 year old girl, I suspect any restoration of her conception of normal life is unlikely to ever happen. And she's not dumb; she strongly suspects the same, no matter how much her parents try to pretend things will be all right again soon
Thursday tomorrow!
Goodnight all
