Morning denizens

Another cloudy and breezy one, and I think there’s been a shower or two overnight and early morning; no more expected, but they said that yesterday and I think there may have been a brief and very light one in the evening. It might brighten up a little later in the afternoon. It’s 17°C (“feels like” 14°) with an expected high of 23°, and the barometers are back up at 1005/1013mB

I’d not got around to doing the mundane laundry at the weekend so that’s on an Express cycle; supposedly 1h50m for a wash and dry, though sometimes it needs a bit more drying once it’s done

Morning.

Monday apparently.

Dry.

Wanly sunny.

Cloudy with patches of blue sky.

21.8 deg in here, 23.1 in the kitchen, 21 in the leanto, 17.5 out the back.

1011.5 mBar, 29.87 in Hg, 758.7 Torr, 14.67 psi, (up from 1007 last night), 58% RH (Lidl electric).

Meanwhile on the 1st of April 2020 between 19:00 and 20:00 AndyGarbs, BR14, LM, MrMarkyMark, and NF popped in. Another empty bottle put back in the cupboard was found by LM.

Morning all

CBS, cooler earlier but very pleasant on our walk.

[NickFitz]

There was some wildlife stuff on this afternoon

And tonight I finished The Parable of the Sower in which they managed to get somewhere there was a possibility of building a life on the ruins of society, and started on The Parable of the Talents in which the saga continues

The wind and relative mildness plus the clouds blocking out the sun have resulted in the bedroom getting down to a mere 20°C for the first time in weeks!

Monday tomorrow, but no work for me!

Well, not ClientGov work, though I have Things To Do

I had a few spells of tiredness today, but apparently the cholesterol drug has an unusually long half-life so it takes a few days to get it out of your system

Goodnight all

[ladymuck]

After the very brief shower, the sky cleared and the afternoon was lovely and sunny.

[NickFitz]

Spag bol for tea

Accompanied by 24 Hours in A&E

[NickFitz]

Leftover crispy duck for lunch

No more rain here. Pretty windy though

[xoggoth]

Rain here lasted less than 5 minutes. Not gonna do much for the plants. Free day today, boring morning fixing some patio slabs.

Not loony lady waiting for some scan results, don't sound good, hope she's ok.

[WTFH]

Very windy overnight and then at 7am it started to rain. It stopped about 15 mins later and then it was a mix of drizzle and just damp air until 10am. Now clearing.

[ladymuck]

Raining! The wind is such that it's coming down at a jaunty angle. The ground is so dry I doubt it'll make much difference.

There’s quite a bit of cloud but some of it is clearing, so it’s tending towards sunny spells. There was a brief shower not long ago, though nothing more along those lines is expected. It’s also very breezy, so the current 19°C “feels like” 15° and the expected high for the day is a mere 21°. The barometers are down a touch more at 991/999mB

[ladymuck]

Morning all

Cloudy with fleks of grey and a stuff breeze. Current 20 degrees ('feels like' 24) with a high of 23 expected. It might rain but it's a slim chance. Barometer down to 1006 mBar.

Sunrise 05:50; Sunset 20:57 BST

Tired this morning. Slept ok but woke about 5.30 and again at 7.30, after which I didn't get back to sleep.

[DoctorStrangelove]

Morning.

Sunday. And thusly awake before 07:00. .

Damp. .

Wanly sunny.

Blue sky in parts with lots of clouds.

22.7 deg in here, 23.8 deg in the kitchen, 22 in the leanto, 19 out the back.

1000 mBar, 29.53 in Hg, 750 Torr, 14.5 psi, (down from 1002 last night), 63% RH (Lidl electric).

Meanwhile at 17:48 on April 1st 2020 AndyGarbs, LM, MrMarkyMark, NF, and I popped in, with NF relating the latest plague stats for Leicester.

Walk (abbreviated, 3 miles) walked in the coolth of the breeze. There were puddles! Nearly needed a duffle coat to avoid hypothermia. Another conversation with the couple I spoke with yesterday.

Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: thing about gardens Yng Nghymraeg.

The Oz Customs thing: S7 E1: just watching this to see how much food the Chinese have concealed & undeclared in their multiple suitcases: fingers crossed for Frog Fat! Birds Nest! Winterworm caterpillars. $250 fine: these days the same offence attracts a fine of $3500 or so from what I saw in S17. And a Nigerian chap who has Nigerian custard powder because he prefers that. He's getting angry enough to attract the attention of the police. All his unidentifiable food was confiscated before they let him in. Yet another NZ chap with previous convictions: guess where he's going (hint: it ain't across the border).

Somewhere in there was Dan Do which visited various new builds.

Book.

Tea: baked spud & baked beans with cheese: nice enough apart from the Big Black Thing in one of the spuds. Entertainment: bit of Brain of Britain, 17 o'clock news, Today in History: the Aga Khan talking about his meeting with Florence Nightingale, The Lady with the Lamp, in 1900 or so when she was a rather old & infirm lady and he was a mere stripling.

Danny Trejo Buried Crap thing on Blaze: meh. ancient sword found in sea off Israel: dated from the Crusades: might be Richard the Lionheart's. . As fecking if. Assorted ancient texts. PreViking gold with Odin shown. Couple of pages of the oldest Koran known found in a library in Birmingham. Coptic scriptures, variously gospels of Thomas & Judas. The Antikythera shipwreck. Some other shipwreck (I was dozing by then).

UFO bollox on DMAX:Why did everyone start making stone constructions 10,000 years ago? Derek von Heiniken makes an appearance: <click>.

News: the scumbag in Germany was offed by special forces as is only right & proper: 35p for a 9x19 is a lot cheaper than keeping the **** alive for the rest of his miserable life. Not that I'm in any way judgemental of course. . Everyone has the right to plot his/her/its road to hell.

Nobody is on again. Since I'm now word perfect, I'll give it a miss.
