Neighbour next door just came round and asked if I can turn my WiFi off when their gardener is around as it affects her. Makes her dizzy. Thought she must be a loony, but looking on Google, not so sure. Rarely use it anyway, my PC has ethernet.

Morning.
Monday.
Dry.
Sunny.
Blue sky.
Cool in here at 18.3 deg, 19 deg in the kitchen, 17 deg in the leanto, 13.6 deg in the saltinghouse.
1009 mBar, 29.796 in Hg, 756.8 Torr, 14.6343 psi, (up from 1007 last night), 69% RH (Lidl electric).
Meanwhile on the 18th of October 2019 there was much talk of Viz (whatever that is), Drunken Bakers (ditto), whilst I got wet wandering aimlessly around Neath as a coffin dodger.Last edited by DoctorStrangelove; Today, 07:55.

Sunny start for a change. Expected to get cloudier by lunchtime though. It's already 12°C and likely to reach 20°, while the barometers are up a bit more at 1003/1011mB

Overcast and damp out, but at least it isn't tipping it down like it did every half hour yesterday

This evening's viewing was Trauma Room 1 followed by a couple of old episodes of 24 Hours in A&E. I thought there was a new one of the latter, but it turned out to be a clip show
Monday again tomorrow. At least there'll be a new Secretary of State, not that I ever get to move in such exalted circles
Goodnight all

Tea: another microwave meal, as I got a spare the other day in case one wasn't enough, supermarkets' ideas of what "feeds n people" being notoriously unrealistic. This one was "Chinese style" chicken curry and rice. Nice enough, and a bit tastier than the one the other night, but still not as tasty as it might have been

Bah! Stupid weather forecasters! Nice local outdor music event I wanted to go to was cancelled due to storm risk. Forecast said storms and 75% risk of rain. In fact there has been no rain at all this afternoon, quite a bit of sun bits and I only heard a faint rumble of thunder when the thing would have been nearly finished anyway.

Lunch: ham toasties
And for the first time in years, I watched an F1 race. It was quite a good one, I thought

Wanly sunny if you use some imagination.

1003.5 mBar, 29.63333 in Hg, 752.6868 Torr, 14.5545 psi, (up from 1003 last night), 66% RH (Lidl electric).
Meanwhile on the 18th of October 2019 NF went shopping and it was raining again after stopping for 5 minutes.
Hammering down now: rivers of water in the gutters flowing down the road.
Looks like the washing is on hold for today. .
Entertainment during the deluge: the extras on "Once upon a time in Hollywood".
Walk (unabbreviated) walked in grey gloom, wan sunshine, breezy breeze.
Lunch: baked spud & baked beans etc.
Entertainment: Veronica Mars S2 E21 wherein the nasty man gets away with murder.
Tea: chicken in white sauce etc.
Entertainment: some poetry thing on R4 that rapidly went <click> due to lack of interest.
Veronica Mars S2 E22 in which the fugitive kiddie fiddler is caught and the bus exploder is revealed.
Skinwalker Ranch: "Everything in the air all at once": high power lasers, laser imagers, shedloads of rockets, and hundreds of illuminated drones. This should piss something off..

When I moved here, there was a whole bunch of stuff (mainly in the kitchen and bathroom) that I just stuffed into carrier bags at the old place, then dumped at the back of the pantry floor at this end. Things like bottles of some chemical I needed once that then ended up under the sink for years, old takeaway containers that "might come in handy", a whole bag full of dusters that weren't quite dirty enough to throw away - all kinds of junk like that
So the other day I ordered a couple of small wire trolleys off Amazon, the right height to fit under the deep shelf at the back of the pantry, and yesterday I hauled all the bags out and dumped them in the kitchen, on the basis that they'd annoy me so much that I'd have to sort them out. And I just have! All the useful junk is now neatly stored, while other stuff has been deemed surplus to requirements, and I can finally step into the pantry and find things when I want them!
It's not perfect yet, though. I think I'm going to add a couple of rows of hooks on the wall, as there are various things it would be handy to be able to hang up

It was quite sunny about fifteen minutes ago, but now the clouds have gathered and it's raining. Pretty mild at 15°C, and aiming for 17°, while the barometers are back up a bit at 995/1003mB

Blue skies and sunshine here, might give the grass a trim later. I see one of my neighbours is clearing around their paddock, looks like he’s planning a bonfire this evening, so we shall probably do likewise.
