Morning denizens
Sunny start out, though filtered by a high haze. There's a pleasant light breeze too. Currently 15°C with 21° expected later, and the barometers are really much the same at 1001/1009mB

Managed a lot of jobs yesterday and finished the day off with a large bonfire. 8 dumpy bags of garden waste burned, not counting the 10 metres of our hedging that the owner of the field behind had dug up and left in our garden.
Chopping wood today.

Lots of old Monkey Life on today, at the more usual lunchtime period rather than the early one they did last week. And that was followed by a variety of wildlife stuff, though managing to not be quite so shark-centric this week
And this evening I started reading To Catch a Spy: How the Spycatcher Affair Brought MI5 in from the Cold by Tim Tate, which is hot off the press, having been published two days ago. It promises to cover the whole nonsensical business around HMG and Peter Wright's book in greater detail than any previous account, as lots of official documents and court transcripts that had been kept secret have been released to the archives in recent years
Early night now as tomorrow's Monkey Life session is on earlier again
Goodnight all

Having spent ages trying to decide what to have for dinner, I gave up and got KFC. Not exciting or interesting food, but it'll do

Blood has been donated. Journey there and back was uneventful.
Sunny and warm out.

Sunny, lots of wispy cloud. Currently 21 degrees with a high of 24 expected. No rain forecast. Barometer down to 1012 mBar.
Off to give blood today. I'm O+ so reasonably useful. I didn't realise there was a NHS Blood Donation Centre in Westfield (Shepherds Bush). Very handy, although I won't be looking round the shops today. Easy to get to on the SL8 bus.

Cloudy day out, but with fair amounts of blue dotted around. No excessive heat either, being 18°C and going for 21°, while the barometers are down very slightly but not much different at 1003/1010

Morning.
Saturday.
Dry.
Wanly sunny.
Blue sky with high haze.
Cool in here at 19.7 deg, 21 deg in the kitchen, 18 deg in the leanto: winter drawers on.
1010 mBar, 29.825 in Hg, 757.56 Torr, 14.6488 psi, (unchanged), 69% RH (Lidl electric).
Meanwhile on the 2nd of November 2019 Brillo got a millennium, there was much discussion of the trauma of odd socks emerging from the WM, and I spotted a copy of "Colossus" in a charity emporium for £1, my £20 copy will probably end up in Oxfam fairly soon.
More gardening: a bramble and honeysuckle massacre before the latter meets the Agent Orange in due course.
Because of the honeysuckle I have raspberry canes that are over 6 feet tall, another plant that's invasive in an irritating sort of way.
Lunch: baked spud etc.
Entertainment: TLDR on R4, mildly amusing.
Looking at the scratches on my arms and the increasing greyness of the sky, I think that's it for today, unless it clears up later. It's already drizzled on me for half an hour or so.
Walk (unabbreviated) walked in the grey gloom. I saw my shadow at one point.
Entertainment: The Mentalist S7 E12 EOS.
Tea: spag with vegetarian bol (i.e. the usual Dolmeo without any mince): nice enough.
Entertainment: Dixon of Dock Green S22 E7 "Legacy (1976)". The End is Nigh.
The Good Place S1 E1, E2, E3, E4, E5, E6, E7, E8.Last edited by DoctorStrangelove; Yesterday, 17:54.
