    Who'd have thunk the Great She Elephant was incompetent? .

    Morning.

    Grey.

    Sunless.

    At least one can see the other side of the valley today, Drummau included.

    Cool in here at 19.7 deg, 21.5 deg in the kitchen, 19 deg in the leanto.

    1008 mBar, 29.76622 in Hg, 756.06 Torr, 14.619 psi, (untapped), 76% RH (Lidl electric).

    Meanwhile on the 8th of November 2019 WTFH was almost unretired, though there was a pause due to HR interference, whereas LM was still in Amsterdam & had sent HWMBO off to do some work to earn a crust or two, and I was doing the washing, though stuff wasn't drying very well on the line.

    Morning all

    Dull and overcast. There was some rain overnight but none forecast today. The sun is due to make an appearance. Currently 18 degrees with a high of 22 expected. Barometer up slightly to 1010 mBar.

    It's a full day of webinars today: Dynamics ERP Fundamentals Part 2, TS4 Supplier Surgery 7, Dynamics CRM Fundamentals Part 1.

    Slept quite well but started coughing again once I'd woken up.

    I wasn't sure what to have for tea, but then I got a craving for fish & chips. So I went and got that from the VAT fraud chip shop, and very nice it was too

    Had to wait for the fish to be fried, as they give over one end of the shop to gluten free stuff on Monday and don't use the middle third of the counter, presumably to avert any risk of cross-contamination - or maybe just because Monday's aren't as busy. Anyway, the result is that it only takes a few people with large orders for them to run out of fish before the next lot is ready, and I was behind such people

    Brightened up a bit here, though only a bit. But it appears the schools are back so if I go out shopping now, I'll probably encounter unpleasant levels of traffic on the way home. Think I'll leave it until tomorrow morning

    I agree. That's happening tomorrow and Wednesday afternoons. I figured attending the free fundamentals webinars for both wouldn't do me any harm.

    Lunch has been the rest of the "Chinese" chicken legs, confirming my judgment yesterday that I won't bother with them again. OK, but not my thing

    There's been a bit of rain here, but it seems to be holding off for now. I may pop out in a bit, or I may leave it until tomorrow

    Dull and overcast. Warm. Sticky. Currently 20 degrees with a high of 22 expected. No rain forecast. Barometer down to 1008 mBar.

    I have a cold. It started with a sore throat on Saturday morning and now I'm coughing (non-productive) and sneezing.

    Up early for a Dynamics 365 ERP Fundamentals training day from Microsoft. Thought I ought to gen up on the terminology for ERP and CRM as there seems to be a few contracts wanting "D365" exposure.

    Morning denizens

    It seems there's been some rain overnight, and the season of mists and mellow fruitfulness is kicking in early with a mistiness in the air making the more distant trees a bit less distinct than usual. No more rain expected though and it's mild too, being 19°C already with a predicted high of 23°. The barometers are down to 997/1005mB

    Morning.

    Monday.

    Grey.

    Dark.

    Dank.

    Dreary.

    Drizzly.

    Sunless.

    Dire.

    Cool in here at 19.6 deg, 21 deg in the kitchen, 19 deg in the leanto.

    1004 mBar, 29.648 in Hg, 753.06 Torr, 14.56 psi (down from 1005 last night), 76% RH (Lidl electric).

    For the happenings of 7th November 2019 see above.

    Shopping trip to Morrisons done dusted washed dried sanitised & put away, during which the packet of biscuits was totally consumed.

    Lunch, there was.

    Entertainment: Fringe S4 E9, E10, E11, E12, E13, E14. It's amazing how some of the commenters on imdb find the concept of an alternative timeline difficult to grasp. You'd have thunk the amber colour to the credits might have been a giveaway. Or not.

    Book: Orange moron for a few pages, Spy who came in from the cold, many more pages.

    Tea, there was, beans on toast etc.

    Entertainment: Oak Island bollox: "On their marks": this is on but muted. "New" to Blaze, 2022 season starter, all 2 hours of it. Wood. More wood. rotten leather. A lump of something that the detector guy found. Blah. It was an 'ook of some sort. <click>

    Fringe S4 E15.

    Unprecedented situation this afternoon when they showed some US borders AND NZ roads policing stuff that I'd either not seen before, or at least hadn't seen so often that I recognised it

    Then later, a new episode of Saving Lives in Cardiff and some old ones of 24 Hours in A&E, in which I did remember one patient for her bright red dyed hair

    No need to get up early tomorrow!

    Goodnight all
