Birthday tea has been the same as last year: a Turkish mixed grill from the restaurant across town. Very nice
I watched the Auto Shenanigans video, which covered quite a few places I've never been - for some reason, I haven't been to the west of the county very much

Lunch: ham toasties
Still raining out, though it seems to be petering out. Not sure whether I'll bother going out at all even if it stops

Morning denizens
The Universe, or this small corner of it, has chosen to mark the occasion of my birthday with a gloomy, grey, rainy day. I'm now revising such plans as involved going out to focus on more domestic activities instead. Might bake myself a cake
Along with the rain come cooler temperatures, being a mere 5°C and not expected to get past 8°, while the barometers are down a little but still relatively high at 1017/1025mB

Morning.
Monday.
Dry, whilst picking with rain.
Grey.
Wanly sunny.
Chilly in here at 14 deg, 13 deg in the kitchen & leanto.
1026 mBar, 30.29776 in Hg, 769.56 Torr, 14.8808 psi, ( down from 1026 and a bit last night), 77% RH (GDR hair), 67% RH (Lidl electric).
Meanwhile on the 20th of September 2019 the lady running the Neighbourhood Watch in NF's old location found that her gate had been nicked whilst she was away on holiday, whereas NF had grave difficulties in selecting some lamb chops when forced to interact with a butcher like some kind of animal (though presumably not the sort of animal that meets the poleaxe).
Shopping trip to Morrisons, B&M, and The Range done dusted washed dried sanitised & put away.
It rained half heartedly for much of it, not enough to put the brolly up though.
Shopping trip to Tesco done dusted washed dried sanitised & put away.
Lunch: scrambled egg etc.
Entertainment: TWAO. Some thing about a chap attempting to feed himself on what he can grow. Over a year.
Anyone else remember the Mediaeval Village thing from the 70s? Well this one's got a tractor. And a cow. And two pigs. <- bet they're worried. And some hens.
Veronica Mars S1 E15 "Ruskie business". The Russian "bride" one.
Tea: Mr Brains faggots, with peas & such. etc. Nice enough.
The Mentalist S2 E18 "Aingavite Baa" You wot? Red Water, apparently, in Shoshone.
NCIS S20 E13 "Evil Eye". A ride around for a famous actress. Shades of the Bob De Niro alike in Hill Street Blues S3 E3 "Heat Rash" He doesn't make it out of E4. She survives. . Unlike Jon Gennaro.
Bits of Terminator Dark Fate until I get fed up with it or find something else.
Happy Birthday Nick, since there's still some of it left.Last edited by DoctorStrangelove; Yesterday, 21:22.

Happy birthday Nick!
Morning all
9.something km this morning, but Garmin Connect is experiencing issues so it can't tell me.
Overcast but dry, and the ground has really dried up, which makes digging difficult, but walking a bit easier.

Happy Birthday NF!

On my way to the office.

Today and tonight's viewing has been the usual Sunday stuff: US borders, NZ police, a new episode of Surgeons, and several old episodes of 24 Hours in A&E
Which takes me through to Monday, and it's my birthday!
I've put off opening my cards until morning, when I'll have to think of something at least moderately enjoyable to do with the day
Goodnight all

I thought I'd have a kebab for tea; but I was wrong for, sallying forth to the kebab shop, I found the windows covered from within and a sign in the window announcing that it's closed today and tomorrow for refurbishment
Ah well, it's a pleasant enough evening for a walk, and I daresay the exercise was better for me than the kebab would have been
Returning home, I thought about the option of having something delivered. But on reflection, I realised I'm not actually that hungry after the sausages and bacon earlier. So I just had a couple of corned beef butties; that's plenty for now

Uneventful drives to and from the south coast. A very pleasant day had.
My brother came round to fit a new DAB aerial to my car as the previous one got damaged when the windscreen was replaced last year. Mowed the front lawn. Mum reckons she'll do some gardening in the week.
