Once again, it's a grey start. 10°C now, 18° later, and the barometers are unchanged at 1015/1023mB

The car earlier was a Mercedes thing in America, a repeat of course, to which I didn't really pay attention as I was trying to decipher Apple's documentation on share sheets
And the gold diggers seemed to be doing OK, while I was making some, though not much, progress with share sheets
Later, S1E3 of Slow Horses: Bad Tradecraft (TV Episode 2022) in which the plot thickens, as plots will
And then I read a bit more of Attack Warning Red!
Early night again now, as last night's seemed to help
Goodnight all

Tea here has also been a burger in a bun with fries, this time a lamb one containing garlic and rosemary; very nice, though I'll probably stick with the beef and caramelised onion ones

Yup, definitely got warmer through the day. Now absolutely roasting.
I'll maybe look for work tomorrow... maybe.
Burgers and buns for tea.

Cool start to the day with the promise of the sun returning later.
Might start job hunting. Might not. Time will tell.

Morning all
Dull. Overcast. Windy. Currently 11 degrees ('feels like' 9) with a high of 19 expected. Cloud cover set to lift as the day progresses. Barometer down a touch to 1025 mBar.
Another day of people complaining beckons.

Morning.
Thursday.
Sunny.
Bright.
Blue sky.
Cool in here at 19 deg, 21.5 deg in the kitchen, 18 deg in the leanto.
1020 and a tad mBar, 30.129 in Hg, 765.288 Torr, 14.798 psi (down from 1020 and two tads last night), 71% RH (GDR hair), 64% RH (Lidl electric).
Meanwhile on the 12th of June 2019 the weather was unborked so it was grey, dismal & damp, while there was discussion of red kites, the A14, Colin Dexter, and EBILs at exam boards.
Walk (unabbreviated) walked in the sunshine and cool breeze.
The gulley sucker seems to have ignored the blocked drains & cleaned the unblocked ones. Should be inneresting when the deluge returns.
Lunch: baked potato with cheese and baked beans, a yog, bramble jelly & marmalade on slices of toast, 0.91*1.55 pints of good Glengettie tea.
Entertainment: Y&Y waffling on about professional snagging companies, Sliced Bread waffling on about nappies.. TWATO waffling on about something. The Inconvenience thing waffling on about something.
Much strimming of front lawn, or the bits that the bees ignore. It's gonna be a bitch to cut. Not sure this No Mow May is a good idea.
More strimming in the back garden & along next door's garden path. 3 or 4 very large, very spiky, thistles removed. Why would you leave those get so big? That's rhetorical, it's coz they're fecking idle.
Tea: chilli con carne with rice, some pear halves, a yog, 0.91*1.55 pints of good Glengettie tea.
Entertainment: Wheeler Dealers S13 E1 Mercedes Benz 560 SL V8: bought: $6k (that's $5k less than asking), total: $13,930, sold: $21k. Changed the timing chain, tensioner, guides, fuel injectors, front valance & lights, rear bumper, removed the stainless steel spats on the wheel arches, changed the suspension springs and shox, changed the rubber subframe mounts, changed the wheels. MB was in excessive motormouth mode for this ep, and subtitles plus mute came in very handy. Don't understand how changing those federal bumpers and lights makes it road legal but there you go.
UFO bollox on Blaze.
More UFO bollox on Blaze with Craig Charles. All about Oumuamua, the 2017 interloper from the far beyond.
Utter indescribable bollox on Blaze: Skinwalker Ranch. Stone me I must be desperate. Last week they fired off more rockets.Last edited by DoctorStrangelove; Yesterday, 22:01.

The car earlier was a Noble M12 we've seen before; SORN, MOT ran out about a year ago
And some of the gold diggers who'd been miserable became happy, while for others it was the other way round
Later, S1E2 of Slow Horses, Work Drinks (TV Episode 2022). It's good, this series
Early night now because I'm tired, so I want to make the most of the darkness. Not that the light wakes me up since I've started leaving the blind pulled down, but maybe the early light is disrupting the later stages of sleep a bit, or something. Anyway, as I'm tired, I don't suppose getting to sleep will do me any harm
Goodnight all
