Morning.

Thursday.

Dry.

Sunny.

Cold side of chilly in here at 14.2 deg, 13 deg in the kitchen (before the kettle warmed it up a bit), 13 deg in the leanto, 9 deg in the saltinghouse.

1017 mBar, 30.03 in Hg, 762.8 Torr, 14.75 psi, (up from 1015 last night), 74% RH (Lidl electric).

Meanwhile on the 18th of November 2019 I made a trip down the dump with green waste, then watched the end of BTVS S5 which is always a bit of a downer (in more than one way), whereas BR14 had started the contract for someone he'd told to feck off.

Morning denizens

Bright red sunrise in a largely clear blue sky this morning, though the grouch in the weather app insists on calling it "party cloudy". Not so warm with open skies though it'll warm up later: 7°C now, 16° expected. The barometers are up again at 1011/1019mB

[NickFitz]

A few more chapters of Eternity read

Only Thursday tomorrow? Not good enough; it really should be Friday by now

Goodnight all

[NickFitz]

Tea was pork steaks with chips and beans

And it was accompanied by an old Traffic Cops

Then Jessica Jones: A.K.A. Crush Syndrome being S1E2 of said series

[NickFitz]

Lunch: a bacon bap (white)

For a few minutes this morning, it looked like I might have some work to do. But it involved working with someone else, and they've got a lot of meetings today so they aren't going to get started on the thing in question until tomorrow

So I'm back to looking through documentation and the like. Might poke around a few GitHub repos of relevance later, just to see how bits fit together

Outside, it continues windy and drizzly

Local history group lady just been round to use my laminator for some posters. Nice to have a bit of company. Been invited to a quiz this evening, not sure as got no brain anymore. Won't know any answers unless about dinosaurs or periodic table.

Morning all

Dull, overcast, damp. Not currently raining but the forecast says to expect it mid afternoon. Currently 15 degrees with a high of 16 expected. Barometer up to 1012 mBar.

No other news to report at this time.

Morning.

Wednesday.

Dry.

Dark.

Dank.

Dreary.

Sunless (after yesterday's lovely sunset).

Chilly in here at 15.2 deg, 16.5 in the kitchen, 14 in the leanto.

1010.3 mBar, 29.834 in Hg, 757.787 Torr, 14.653 psi, (up from 1010 last night), 76% RH (Lidl electric).

Meanwhile on the 18th of November 2019 NF posted Monday Links and toddled off to the pharmacy to get his monthly fix, whereas BR14 had been set up by the client for the job I thought he'd told them to feck off for.

Entertainment: The Coming Storm on R4.

Walk (unabbreviated) walked in the unexpected sunshine and gloom.

Lunch: there was.

Five lawns duly mown. I wish I knew what I seeded that bottom bit with, it's twice as lush as the rest and the seed all came from Wilko, allegedly the same stuff.

Freecell score: 100%, running average: 77% (making up for the 50% this morning).

Tea: scrambled egg etc.

Entertainment: book. That Smiley, wot's he like?

Maigret and the Flemish House (1992) with Bruno Cremer. I've watched this three times now and it was worth while watching it again. Odd to think the little boy is now in his 30s.

Morning denizens

Grey start again, with copious traces of overnight rain. Not overly cold for the time of year at 11°C with a high of 15°, though the breeze means it "feels like" 5° right now. The barometers are creeping back up at 1002/1010mB and the already breezy breeze is expected to get breezier, with a chance of the odd shower now and then

[WTFH]

Morning all
Overcast, but about 6C warmer this morning than yesterday. I was wearing too heavy a jacket on the perambulation.

[NickFitz]

Tonight's viewing was a new Police Interceptors

And a few more chapters of Eternity have been read

I suppose I'd better get some sleep now; there's a definite risk of being expected to do some work tomorrow

Goodnight all

[NickFitz]

Tea has been oniony chicken casserole - a fresh batch made in the Remoska, so instead of chips it had slices of potato spread over the top to soak up the fat that rises and get crispy

[NickFitz]

Well, that's the afternoon done. Still raining a bit from time to time, and very breezy

The team I'm on is a bit biased towards devops, which is a change though not really my usual thing. But as it happens, I had to do a lot of the same stuff myself on the doomed project, so I should be OK, and if anything it'll be pretty easy work compared to that nonsense as most of it is quite straightforward. The interesting bit comes when things go wrong and nobody can work out why, but I enjoy investigating stuff like that so I'm hoping it happens a lot

[NickFitz]

Lunch: pork cutlet in a wholemeal bap with apple sauce

Very rainy morning, and it's not stopping yet

There's a weekly (or maybe fortnightly?) team retrospective meeting shortly, so I'll be able to find out who I'll be working with

[ladymuck]

Morning all

Dull. Wet. Raining. Currently 12 degrees with a high of 14 expected. Rain set to continue for the rest of the day. Barometer up a bit to 1005 mBar.

In the office today. A requirement I only found out yesterday lunchtime because I logged in to see what time I needed to be online today for a meeting. That meeting got brought forward half an hour so I'd have missed it if I was only to work the half day I'd originally planned. I do like that consultancyCo assume I check emails when I'm not working.
