The car earlier was a Porsche Boxster S. I had to restart my browser when the adblocker wanted to update so I've lost its details (poor URL design by the team responsible for that service) but IIRC it's taxed until next January

And some of the gold diggers did rather well, which is nice for them

Then the next episode of Severance - S1E7, I think - which continues to get odder and more perturbing

Finally, some bedtime reading

Goodnight all

[WTFH]

Temperature seemed normal tonight, but I did have a really dizzy spell earlier (The Wife^TM suggested it may be that I blew my nose and shifted a blockage in my sinuses)

Lemsip is being consumed, and based on past experiences, that should last me for about 5 hours.

Tea: roast gammon with chips, fried eggs and beans

I managed to drop one egg, and another one was already cracked. Now I need to get eggs

Having knocked off for the day, I naturally hastened to see what was going on down on the lawn (seven pigeons, two magpies) and saw that a small piece of paper had been placed under the windscreen wipers of the Toyota. So I got my shoes on and went all the way down to see what it was. Had I annoyed a neighbour with my parking? Had somebody reversed into it? But no; it was a thing advertising the services of some scaffolders; possibly the ones currently putting up scaffolding on the large Victorian villa next door.

As anything which might need scaffolding here would involve the management company, I fear they have wasted their efforts and their little bits of paper. Still, I took the stairs down and back, and I daresay the exercise will do me good

And now somewhere without every Brit on this island

Would that be the set of a certain BBC TV series?

possibly - was there while a production meeting was taking place - they need to locate the computers for the monitors and repair 2 of the desks

I actually cooked lunch today. A spicy, garlicy tomato sauce with capers and some fusilli lunghi (long thick curly stands of pasta).

Still raining.

Bed linen being washed.

[WTFH]

Just got a long drive as there is a film set in Deshaies that Mrs Eek wishes to visit and we couldn’t be further away if I was trying

Morning - blue sky with the odd cloud

currently 25 degrees with a high of 28. Just got a long drive as there is a film set in Deshaies that Mrs Eek wishes to visit and we couldn’t be further away if I was trying

Stuck some towels in the wash, as it feels like a good day for revelling in the machine's tumble drying capability

It's a grey and rainy day out, so what could be better for lunch than Scotch broth with a bit of wholemeal

I'm so out of touch, I didn't even realise that making literal flying visits to Bulgaria was a thing now

It's an expensive and unjustifiably bad for the environment hobby

Yesterday's mission to spend 20 minutes in Bulgaria was successful. The cabin crew were highly entertained by my nonsense travel and I met a few travellers doing the same thing. It was a good fun day out.

Morning all

Overcast and damp, raining. Currently 7 degrees ('feels like' 5) with a high of 8 expected. Rain forecast all day in varying levels of enthusiasm. It'll then get warmer overnight to reach 11 degrees in the wee hours . Barometer down to 1020 mBar.

Morning denizens

Grey day out and supposedly bringing drizzle, though it doesn't seem to have arrived yet. Currently 5°C and aiming for 9°, and the barometers have settled back a bit from yesterday's exuberant climb, to 1006/1015mB

My internal clock remains unconvinced by the lies of Big Summer Time, and is objecting strongly to the early rising inflicted upon it thereby
