Afternoon all

Dull, overcast, damp. Currently 14 degrees ('feels like' 12) and that's the high for the day. Might be some rain later. Barometer at 1013 mBar.

Sunrise 07:39; Sunset 15:58 GMT

Busy morning. Meetings, emails, etc.

HWMBO is off out this evening which leaves me opportunity to catch up on the TV I like.

[NickFitz]

Lunch: one of the mildly spicy chicken thighs from the other night, cold, and a bag of plain crisps

The day continues grey with a bit of a breeze

Morning.

Thursday.

Grey.

Dark.

Dank.

Dreary.

Drizzly.

Misty.

Can't see across the valley.

Chilly in here at 13.9 deg, 12 in the kitchen, 11.5 in the leanto.

1009 mBar, 29.79 in Hg, 756.8 Torr, 14.63 psi, (down from 1011 last night), 57% RH (Lidl electric).

Meanwhile on the 3rd of March 2020 NF made the mistake of only buying one replacement lightbulb from the shop across the way, I related the tale of the exploding EveryReady el cheapo tungsten lightbulbs, LM popped in with a link to the building of the old Severn Bridge on Timewatch, scruff popped in, AndyGarbs popped in.

Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: The Infinite Monkey Cage: Eels. No mention was made of hovercraft. .

Word of the day: "prolicide". Sadly it doesn't mean offing proles. .

Morning all
Light cloud, although I could still see stars through it when we went out earlier and the temp was 11C. Phew, what a scorcher.

Morning denizens

It’s a grey start out, though with some gaps in the overcast hither and yon and no sign of the drizzle mentioned by the weather app. Positively boiling too, being 11°C with a goal of 13° - though it’s also breezy so only “feels like” 5°. The barometers have calmed down a little and settled back to 999/1007mB

Tonight’s reading was more of The Forgotten Soldier, in which he’s had a thoroughly miserable time on a supply convoy to Minsk and then another to Kharkiv in the middle of winter. But now they’ve been told they’re carrying on to the Russian Front, so I daresay that’ll seem like the days of wine and roses soon enough

Thursday tomorrow!

Goodnight all

[NickFitz]

Tea: beef & Guinnes stew

Accompanied by the first part of the latest Traffic Cops which appears to be an HGVs-crashing-into-things special. As it’s Notts police, they could have done a crossover episode with Trucking Hell - I’m sure Crouch Recovery would be up for that

What a nighmare of a day. Doing last few bits of toothpaste inspection, walked about 15 mins and found I didn't have my phone to take photos. Went back to see if it was in the car and it wasn't, so did the walk again to see if I'd dropped it. No luck, so went back home to see if I'd left it there. It wasn't, so went back again with my spare phone to ring and locate it. Fortunately found it by the roadside near where I'd parked. Phew! Make sure i have it on a piece of string next time.

Another working day done, leaving *checks calendar* just nine more this year!

It was quite a productive afternoon too, despite a few meetings getting in the way

[covbob]

Afternoon folks.

It's been clear and chilly all day here. Now getting rather gloomy out there.

Thankfully CB1 is out visiting a friend for a few hours which means his two sisters (and by extension, me and Mrs CB) will enjoy a relative amount of peace.

Actually, it's an Embraer on this leg.

The aircraft from Warsaw to London is a B737 Max 8

However, the door didn't fall off on the way out so hopefully it'll also stay put on the way back.

Greetings from a very soggy Warsaw. Local time 1427.

Currently 2 degrees ('feels like' -1) and that's the high for the day. Barometer at 1006 mBar.

Currently having some warming lunch having had a mooch around the Christmas market by the old town castle.

Lunch: leftover pork cutlet with apple sauce in a wholemeal bap

I’d forgotten I was supposed to be demoing our progress in the Show & Tell this morning. Luckily we were on last, so I had time to get the latest version deployed to hotfix and work out a bunch of stuff to say that made us sound wonderful. It was the first time the assembled horde had seen it being used with real data (well, a recent copy thereof) and it knocked their socks off
