Tea: chicken in red wine sauce with chips and peas

This was accompanied by a Netlix thing which is Ambulance-equivalent but in New York. But it does that US thing of chopping and changing all the time, in case our attention span should wander if we’re required to concentrate on the same patient for more than two minutes, so I don’t think I’ll bother watching the rest of the series (or season)

And the laundry has been accomplished

Oh maybe I'll post it. If NAT bans me I shall blame you.




Darn it! The nice lady neighbour I used to spend Sunday afternoon with has died.

Ok day apart from that. 1/2 hr local walk followed by drink at village club with usual people, then coffee chat at village cafe with lady I know.

Strange walk, sun shining on open field that still had little patches of snow behind the grass clumps and they looked blue. Wasn't just me old eyesight, took photo and they looked bit blue in there too.

I agree!

NAT wouldn't dare ban you for that, this is a safe space

Bedding wash on

I did the mattress topper and pillowcases yesterday, and this led to the machine declaring container 1 of the two-container internal detergent dispensing system to be empty. But there was a voucher with the machine for a six-month supply, calculated on the basis of a family of four, and which I therefore reckon should last me a year at least. So I’ve finally opened the box that came in and swapped a full one in

Been cleaning up in garage before visit by boiler service bloke tomorrow. Funny how tedious jobs like that cheer you up, was feeling distinctly grumpy earlier.

Left the outside tap dripping a bit last night and it has formed an icicle that looks just like a bloke's thingy, complete with b*. I would post a photo but NAT will give me an infartion.

Left the outside tap dripping a bit last night and it has formed an icicle pointing up from the ground that looks just like a bloke's thingy, complete with b*. I would post a photo but NAT will give me an infartion.

May call in at village club later, after me walky.

[ladymuck]

you skipped the tedious bit to get to the REALLY EXCRUCIATINGLY boring bit???

[ladymuck]

Afternoon all

Sunny, clear sky. Cold. Currently 3 degrees ('feels like' 1) and that's the high for the day. Barometer up to 1013 mBar.

Sunrise 08:06; Sunset 16:06 GMT

Didn't go to visit Mum today. I just really wanted a day on my own before work tomorrow.

[sadkingbilly]

happy new year

antibiotics gorn, - no more big billy ba' face!

snow here since yesterday AM, so going nowhere today.
dentist tuesday, maybe snow'll be gone by then.
the world goes back to normal (AFU) tomorrow, thank feck.

The darts final beckons. I skipped the majority of the waffle and preamble by watching something else for the first half hour of the coverage. It should be actually getting underway in the next few minutes.

Morning all
Scrambled maps completed (nothing special happened at the end)
£75 interest in the January draw. Better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick.

About to venture out for a walk now, and later will be back up a ladder pruning apple trees. Spent 5 hours yesterday on the biggest cooker, still maybe another 2 hours to finish it, but I’d really like to start on the old cider tree as I didn’t prune it last year.

Morning denizens

It’s a clear blue sky out there again, which means all the heat is getting out: it’s -3°C now, and that’s after warming up a little; the high will be 1° for two or three hours this afternoon. It’ll get down to -5° tonight, and there’s a 25% chance of a short period of precipitation this evening, which will presumably arrive in the form of sleet or snow. The barometers are up a bit at 1001/1009mB

Morning.

Sunday.

White.

Sunless.

Cold in here at 10.8 deg, 8.5 in the kitchen, 6 in the leanto.

1013 mBar, 29.91 in Hg, 759.8 Torr, 14.692 psi, (unchanged), 53% RH (Lidl electric).

Meanwhile on the 9th of March 2020 WTFH was having problems cancelling stuff, it was drizzling on me, it had gone grey with LM, SimonMac was having problems with online banking, and NF posted the Monday links as is only right & proper.

Next door's kid(s) were excited to see the snow & went outside to make snowballs earlier.

Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: my tinnitus. Still snowy though it's melting a little.

Book. Other book.

Tea: beans on toast. Nice enough. Entertainment: "What happened to progress" on R4. Nothing good from the sounds of it. Cue Skynet etc.
