Morning denizens
Blue sky with bits of cloud out; possibly a bit of mackerel sky, though I'm not sure about that - the Wikipedia page on cloud types seems a lot more complicated than the Ladybird book about the weather which formed the basis of my knowledge
Anyway, it's 8°C and expected to reach 18°, which seems reasonable for the end of September, and also likely to be mostly sunny with the cloud increasing a bit this afternoon. The barometers are steady at 1014/1022mB

In Andromeda Breakthrough, it seems that Andromeda may be able to fulfil her mission (whatever that may be) after all, but it also looks as if climate change might beat her to the punch
And in my mucking around with RealityKit, I've managed to get it to save a scene to a file. This one is just a random assortment of brightly coloured spheres, cubes, and cylinders scattered across a 100mx100m area, because that was quick and easy to do. And I'm still a bit unclear on the file format it's using. But at least it shows that it's possible to generate stuff and save it, suggesting that I can move on to loading and editing said stuff
Goodnight all

Tea has been oniony chicken casserole with chips and peas
And this was accompanied by yet more fare dodgers. None of them ever seem to come up with anything original. Then again, I suppose of they did, they wouldn't get caught

Another day done
There wasn't much going on really. We tidied up a couple of loose ends on the thing we've been doing, then set it loose on a test server for the end users to check. I spent the last hour or so of the day updating the accessibility statement. This was, of course, provided in Word format, so I had to pull all the text out and go through it to manually mark it up as HTML like it was 1997
It remained fairly bright until around lunchtime, but it's properly clouded over now

Lunch has been a cold sausage bap (white)
I wasn't going to have sausages for the third day in a row, but they involved minimal effort

Those items requiring the iRon have received it & are airing upstairs.
Minor potching with the mains feed down to the garage: the 20mm supports replaced by 22 mm supports to test the theory that the conduit will do better if it's free to slide when the sun's out.
The newly acquired battery strimmer has strimmed parental and grandparental graves reasonably successfully. This is an addition to the two strimmers (mains) that I already possess..
Washing frenzy complete.
Tea: Mr Brains faggots with peas & suchlike. Nice enough.
Entertainment: The kitchen cabinet. PM. <click>
