Morning.
Tuesday apparently, though the Lidl(tm) clock is convinced it's Monday with the moon half full.
Still.
Wet.
Dark.
Dank.
Dreary.
Sunless
Cool in here at 19.7 deg, 20.5 deg in the kitchen, 18 deg in the leanto.

Meanwhile on the 3rd of November 2019 there was discussion of crumpets, pikelets, and scrambled egg, while LM attended two church services, one on R4, the other in person at a christening, whereas I was watching yet more BTVS as is only right & proper.Last edited by DoctorStrangelove; Today, 08:01.

Morning denizens
Sunny start, but with patchy cloud and still quite breezy. Already at 16°C but not getting any higher than 20°, while the barometers are down again at 995/1002mB

I was going to read some more of the book about Spycatcher, but I got distracted by some Swift stuff I've been playing with and got that working instead
Getting very windy out now, and blowing directly at my bedroom. I may shut the window so the blind doesn't fly off and smother me as I sleep
Goodnight all

Getting quite windy here - currently 18mph with gusts up to 31mph
There was supposed to be a shower earlier, but no discernible rain resulted. Chance of some more later though.
No news on the fate of the project because the senior person who will inform us wasn't in today, and the other senior folk who might know have been maintaining radio silence
So we all have to continue doing stuff as if there's a point to it, though there almost certainly isn't

Afternoon all
Cloudy, dull, a light breeze. Currently 20 degrees with the high of 21 still to come apparently. Feels a lot chillier than the temp would have you believe. No rain forecast but I have a hunch there'll be a shower of some sort, judging by the grey in the clouds. Barometer is up a bit to 1013 mBar.
This morning I have been doing my year end accounts and Q4 VAT return.

Morning.
Horrendous night's sleep..
Had to put the electric blanket back on the bed to control the violent shivering.
Dry, currently.
Grey.
Sunless.
Cool in here at 19.5 deg.
1009.5 mBar, 29.81 in Hg, (1012 last night), 70% RH (Lidl electric).
Meanwhile on the 3rd of November 2019 I ventured as far as the viewless point, and NF had toasted muffin and a nice mug of tea.
No breakfast other than tea.
Entertainment: The Good Place S2 E7, E8, E9. E10, E11, E12, E13.
No lunch other than tea.
Entertainment: The Good Place S3 E1, E2, E3, E4, E5, E6, E7, E8.
Tea: scrambled egg.
Entertainment: The Good Place S3 E9, E10, E11, E12, E13.
I have no recollection of any of S3. I wonder if it was ever broadcast on E4 back in the day.

Cloudy start out, or perhaps smoky? Anyway, naught but the wannest of wan sunshine getting through the occasional thinner bit. It's 13°C now and won't get past 21° later, while the barometers are up a little at 1005/1012mB. They haven't got much higher than that for weeks, IIRC

Wondered if someone had stolen the moon as haven't seen it for a while, so went outside to look last night. It was about full but quite red and dim. Turns out it's due to wild fires across the Atlantic.

This evening, I've been reading some more of To Catch a Spy, covering the early part of Peter Wright's career at MI5 up to the point in 1964 where Anthony Blunt admitted to being a Soviet spy in return for not being prosecuted
Monday again tomorrow. Maybe there'll finally be a decision over the fate of the project
Goodnight all

Tea has been bits of the Big Chicken, reheated, with chips and ketchup
Accompanied by the remaining half of an old 24 Hours in A&E that I hadn't finished watching last week, and then another old one as there doesn't seem to be a new one this week
