    More importantly, WiFi that works! That's more than they can manage on the trains

    Tea: pork cutlet with chips and beans

    Bit of a breeze returning now, though a bit more would be nice

    Lunch has been some chicken bits

    Warming up again, not helped by the slight breeze apparently dying down for now

    Morning

    Wednesday

    Dry.

    Warm side of cool in here at 21.5 deg, 22.5 deg in the kitchen, 22 deg in the leanto.

    1008 mBar, 29.766 in Hg, 756.06 Torr, 14.6198 psi, (down from 1010 last night), 78% RH (GDR hair), 74% RH (Lidl electric).

    Meanwhile on the 13th of October 2019 Joan of Arcadia had a rest and was replaced with that little known epic by the name of BTVS, the surprise being that Amy the Rat appears in S1 E3, combined with the factoid that the boxset was worth all of 3p on some site or other according to DaveB, whereas NF noted it was Diwali and a full moon, later watching S4 eps of "Breaking Bad".

    And now for the good news from this morning's delve: the clap is becoming more popular and monkey pox has developed a new clade that doesn't require sexual contact & causes miscarriages, all spread by some oik who visited a myriad of sex workers in some African hell hole*.

    *Other hellholes are available.

    Walk (unabbreviated) walked in the terrible heat. There appeared to be a lack of horseflies this morning.

    Lunch: scrambled egg etc.

    Entertainment: Y&Y. TWATO. The Michael Sheen thing about dumping toxic tulipe in Wales.

    Morning denizens

    Sunny start but with a high haze diffusing the dazzling rays. Currently what passes for "cool" this week at 17°C, aiming for 27° again. There's a very light breeze, and the little side window in the living room is doing a good job of channeling it directly towards my seat, somewhat compensating for the temperature of 25° here in the living room. The barometers are down another notch at 1003/1011mB

    Now waiting for when the plane up to Glasgow actually turns up.
    That's the way to do it!

    I could really do with a break; I'm fed up to the back teeth with this project. I'm thinking of taking a week off soon, but I'll also be taking a week off for my niece's wedding in September so I'll probably just end up sticking it out until then

    Tea: steak & caramelised onion burger (plus sesame bun etc.) and chips

    Still very warm here, and the decorative clouds have cleared off. There's a slight breeze though, which is keeping a bit of air circulation going through the flat

    Lunch: Greggs sausage rolls

    Still warm and sunny, with some big cumuli hither and yon as decoration

    I must have slept at the wrong angle last night as I've got a terrible crick in my neck today

    Morning all

    Sunny, no cloud from my vantage point. Currently 25 degrees with a high of 29 expected . Forgot to look at the barometer before I left the house this morning so my weather app says it's down to 1017 mBar.

    Busy morning. Met with a potential new client on a little project. Handover meetings. Spreadsheet wrangling.
