    Morning all

    Cloudy but bright with a decent amount of sky visible. Currently 3 degrees ('feels like' 1) with a high of 7 expected. My weather app thinks there's rain and snow falling at the moment. I disagree. Barometer has dropped a little to 1020 mBar.

    Sunrise 07:25; Sunset 16:08 GMT

    Yesterday, HWMBO and I met MS for dinner and a good catch up. No secrets spilled about upcoming OC appearances even though it was all recorded some time ago.

    Dentist visited at 09:00. Teeth cleaned, x rayed, nothing to do. .

    Rather cloudy start, but it’s expected to brighten up a bit soon before falling back to cloudy with a 50% chance of some showers early in the afternoon. It’s still cold at 1°C which “feels like” -2°, and the expected high is down a bit from yesterday at 6°. The barometers are down a little at 1007/1015mB

    CBS, etc. Dropped below freezing around 9pm yesterday, but up to 2C when we went out earlier.

    TV this evening was the remainder of an episode of Traffic Cops

    And tonight, I finished reading Elvissey. Only one more book in the series left, which has the unusual distinction of being sixth both in writing order and story order!

    Goodnight all

    I had loads of chips left over from Five Guys on Saturday and it seemed a shame to let them go to waste, so I had them with a hot dog for tea

    Lunch: chilli & salt chicken in a wholemeal bap

    Very sunny out, but cold with it

    A skip has appeared in the small car park at the back, and the fittings from a bathroom are appearing in it. I think it’s one of the top floor flats, and though I don’t know which, I would have expected more noise if it was the one above me. But I’ve just realised I haven’t seen the very old lady from the other one up there in a while, so now I’m wondering if she’s either popped her clogs or been institutionalised and they’re doing a bit of a refurb before putting it on the market

    And in the post, a cheque for forty-odd quid from Eon. They haven’t been my energy supplier for nearly three years, and I thought everything had been settled after I took them to the Ombudsman, so I have no idea what’s going on. There’s a statement which basically shows every charge at the old flat since I moved out of there as reversed, but none of them were charged to me in the first place. So now I’m wondering whether to phone them and ask what the hell they’re up to, or just bank it

    Sunrise 07:23; Sunset 16:09 GMT

    Tired this morning. Two cups of coffee inhaled.

    Let's see what Monday brings...

    Morning.

    Monday.

    Dry.

    Sunny.

    Blue sky.

    Chilly in here at 15.6 deg, 12.5 in the kitchen, 11.5 in the leanto, 5.6 in the saltinghouse.

    1019.5 mBar, 30.1 in Hg, 764.7 Torr, 14.786 psi, (up from 1013 last night), 59% RH (Lidl electric).

    Meanwhile on the 29th of February / 01st of March 2020 Brillo, scruff, and AndyGarbs popped in, a post pub NF had some Maryland Chicken and watched Predator II, LM was awakened at 03:00 by some unidentified electrical hum/buzz, and I found the weather to be unexpectedly clement.

    2nd washing frenzy in progress.

    Trip to Swansea to the Oxfam bookshop: another 2 feet of books donated. 38 down, T6 back. And I didn't buy anything. Which was good.

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

    Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: Y&Y lorry theft. Xmas presents via AI<click>

    Shirt duly iRoned.

    Walk (abbreviated, towpath) walked in the wan sunshine. Not exactly tropical out there today.

    Stuff in off the line & in the TD to finish: small amount of water extracted.

    Tea: chilli con carne etc. Nice enough.

    Entertainment: PM.

    Nazi programme. Peleliu. Another bloodbath.

    Alice Roberts: Stonehenge-ing.

    Oak Island nutjobbery: why do I do this to myself? It's like a hairshirt. They found wood in the swamp, a pipe came up out of the drill hole, the garden shaft sealing seemed to control the water a bit, they found what might be a coin on lot 5, along with Another Glass Bead. Gold, silver: zero.

    Empire. The loss of SepticLand and the rise of The Raj. Wrong day.

    Once upon a time in space 4/4. on BBC1 NI. Well that was sad. Almost unwatchable in places when the South African Rocket Nazi and the Orange Moron came on.

    CBS, etc. A proper crisp winter's morning. 4C at 6am, with a gentle breeze from the north. A very nice sunrise on the way back in. Shame it's Monday.

    It’s the opposite of a few days ago: clear skies most of the way around the horizon while some remaining cloud up above is shuffling off stage, probably southwards as it’s a chilly northern breeze blowing today. As a result, an already low 3°C “feels like” -2°, and the expected high for the day is 8° for just a couple of hours this afternoon. The barometers are soaring though, up to 1010/1018mB
