Dry.

Grey.

Sunless.

Dark.

Dreary.

Cool in here at 20.5 deg, 22 in the kitchen, 20.5 in the leanto.

Meanwhile on the 25th of October 2019 there was more discussion of "Das Boot" and its various versions, BR14 had a lurgie, maybe he was Patient Zero , and there was discussion of the differences between cardiac arrest and a heart attack, some clown was wittering on the wireless about cashless & cardless society, whereas xogg had found a wasp in his attic & was contemplating the implications of wasp nests etc.

Morning denizens

Patchy cloud out, more patch than not it seems, but very bright when the sun finds one of those gaps. Warm again too: 16°C now, and heading for 24°. The barometers are up again too, at 1009/1017mB

[WTFH]

Morning all
Overcast and humid out, but a pleasant walk has been walked.

[NickFitz]

No further telly watched tonight, nor much of anything done really

Early night now as it's dark enough, but will be getting light a bit earlier than I'd wish

Goodnight all

[NickFitz]

Tea: sausages (the ones with caramelised onion) with chips and beans

Accompanied by Secrets of the London Underground about South Kentish Town and other places

Today I commenced some training in a bid to bolster yea olde CV.

HWMBO has made a ton of caponata, which will make for delicious edibles this week.

[xoggoth]

Hmm. Been invited by annoying bloke I know from karaoke to sing on stage in front of about 65 people.

[NickFitz]

Just ate half an Easter egg. I've been very slow at getting through them this year, but there's only a couple left now!

[NickFitz]

Pork pie for lunch

Morning all

Another dull start to the day. Dry but much cloud. Currently 19 degrees with a high of 25 expected. Rain forecast around lunchtime.

This morning I woke to an email from Thames Water where they claimed I had asked to pay my bill in full rather than monthly installments. This is not something I had requested at all.

They arrived at 7.45, offloaded and have now gone.

A lot more to the delivery than I expected, might possibly have got AtW's sofa as well.

Morning all

CBS, etc.

I ordered some things on Friday and at checkout I was offered EXPRESS DELIVERY for £45 or Standard Delivery for £40. The earliest date for EXPRESS was today. The earliest date for Standard was ... today. I suspect the extra £5 was for the bold font.
Anyway, standard delivery and today was what I chose.
On Saturday I had a text message saying delivery would be today between 7am and 11pm.
On Sunday I got a text message saying delivery would be today between 7am and 7pm.
Yesterday I got a text message saying delivery would be today between 7am and 1pm, and that I would receive a more accurate time today.
6.45am: Your delivery will be between 7am and 11am. (this curtailed the walk, I clicked on the link in the test which just said the same time)
7:05am: Your delivery will be with you shortly (clicked on the link, showed the driver about half an hour away, if he was coming straight here)
7:10am: Your driver has 2 more stops before you
7:15am: Driver phones to say they will be here before 8am

Patchy cloudy out, but still quite sunny. Apparently it'll get clearer during the day then cloud over some more towards evening, a reversal of last week's procedure. It's already 15°C and heading for 23°, with the barometers up a little at 1004/1011mB

[NickFitz]

Old Police Interceptors was tonight's only viewing, as usual

And later, I read some more of Sam Pepys' account of 1667

Goodnight all
