Scotch broth and a bit of wholemeal for lunch - warming, delicious, and nutritious

Morning.

Monday.

Grey.

Wanly sunny if you use imagination.

Breezy.

Cold side of chilly in here at 11.5 deg, 10.5 deg in the kitchen, 9.5 deg in the leanto, 8 deg in the saltinghouse.

1030.5 mBar, 30.43 in Hg, 772.938 Torr, 14.946 psi, (up from 1027 last night), 64% RH (Lidl electric).

Cottons in the WM.

Meanwhile on the 9th of December 2019 it was cold, I was and the washing was in the WM.

Shopping trip to Morrisons done dusted washed dried sanitised & put away.

New neighbours moving in next door. . There's been no one in there for about 5 years or more.

I'll have to turn the volume up to 11 to greet them. Hope they like Pink Floyd & Hawkwind.

Cottons out of the WM & pegged out on the line. The pillow cases look less than savoury.

Lunch: brunch.

The afternoon's task is replacing the broken* clear corrugated sheeting stuff with some inferior B&Q crap that's been in the shed for 10 years or more. It should be nicely ripe by now.

*Broken as in half of it blew away.

Done: horrid stuff to cut: power saw no good, hand saw not much better: went ok until the final nail, whereupon the sheet cracked. Now bodged with weatherproof tape. Feck it.

Freecell score: 75%, running average: 80%. Gave up.

Cottons in off the line, nearly dry, now in TD: those requiring the iRon: done.

To avoid the bedgoer's angst I remade the bed before doing the work on the garage.

Tea: chicken in white sauce with rice n peas etc.

Entertainment: Nazi Hunters: Adolph Eichmann.

UFO hunters: more bollox: this time: Dugway: The "New" Area 51?

Canals: the making of a Nation: William Smith: geology.

Oak Island nutjobbery.

Morning all stormy overnight again, but it's settled a bit now to a mild 7C.
Might have to take an hour or two out of my billable day to re-felt the summerhouse now that I have battens ready to go on top.

Morning denizens

There's some banks of cloud low on the horizon and the trees are still shimmying a bit, but it's generally much calmer out than it has been. It's currently 5°C and only getting to 7°, while the barometers are bouncing all the way back at 1022/1030. Chance of a few minutes of light rain in thirty minutes or so, though

I struggled to get to sleep last night but once I did, I seem to have slept like the proverbial log. I'd probably feel better for it if I hadn't had to wake to Monday morning. But at least I'm nearly done for the year

[NickFitz]

Tea has been Turkish leftovers

Today's viewing was, of course, Monkey Life (albeit interrupted by artists, as noted earlier)

Nothing new at the Canadian border, or at the Australian border that got thrown in for good measure, or on the roads of New Zealand

This evening, I read some more Sassoon.

I also found a bit of time here and there to sort out some bags of stuff that had been cluttering the side of the living room for ages. Apart from a small nest of tables that needed reassembling, they mostly contained books from the parental home, it turned out

It still seems to be pretty windy, though the rain seems to have petered out

Monday again tomorrow, but at least this will be the last working week of the year

Goodnight all
