    Morning all

    Overcast again. Currently 12 degrees with a high of 14 expected. Barometer remains at 1030 mBar.

    Sunrise 07:26; Sunset 18:08 BST

    Yesterday I got my first of six B12 jabs that my doctor prescribed over this and next week. The person doing the stabbing said it'll revert to three monthly once this initial boost is done.

    Today is meetings. Nagging people. Working through my to-do list.

    The bed linen that was laundered yesterday seems to have dried nicely overnight so that'll be one of many procrastination tasks that'll get done today.

    Off to the dentist shortly.
    Last month the dentist said I needed 2 appointments with the hygienist and that I'd be getting numbed up for them.
    Hygenist decided todo it all in one hit with no numbing.

    Morning. .

    Wednesday. .

    Dry.

    Grey.

    Sunless.

    Chilly in here at 17.5 deg, 16.5 in the kitchen, 15.5 in the leanto. .

    1025 mBar, 30.27 in Hg, 768.8 Torr, 14.87 psi, (unchanged), 64% RH (Lidl electric).

    Meanwhile on the 23rd of February 2020 BR14 and I watched Endeavour, and I watched Homeland, NF watched "The Killing". With subtitles of course.

    I may have Done Too Much yesterday. . Should remember I'm not 50 any more. Mowing my lawn nearly killed me. Have updated my calendar so I know when I mowed the feckers last. Which wasn't in August. . Also the grass was dry, so I dread to think what it would have been like if it had been damp. The idle fecker's "useless grass" is, of course, 3 feet tall.

    Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: "1929" on R4. Things are progressing well. Nearly reached "Buddy, can you spare a dime?". .

    Morning denizens

    Grey again, though not foggy at the moment. It's 9°C but only reaching 13° today, which seems to be what we can expect for the foreseeable future. No rain expected though, unlike next week when there's not just rain but lightning forecast! The barometers are dithering at 1019/1027mB

    Finally getting to the science bits in Ossian's Ride though I expect there are still plenty of John Buchan-style antics to come as well

    I had two items delivered by Amazon today, but their tracking went on the fritz, so though they were delivered around half twelve, I wasn't notified until about three. I went down to get them (there was a photo of them at the bottom of the stairs) and they'd gone!

    They were finally deposited at my flat door sometime this evening. I assume there was also one or more packages for one of the neighbours, and they (or their partner) had just scooped up the lot. At least they noticed they weren't for them before opening them

    Wednesday tomorrow! Just got to get through that and Thursday, and it's holiday time!

    Goodnight all

    Tea has been cottage pie (out of the freezer)

    And this was accompanied by the rest of last night's Traffic Cops

    The bed has been made; there'll be no nasty surprises later.

    That's a bit harsh, did he offend the monarchy?

    Gosh. The Gorn commented on it too. .

    And it took pages and pages and pages on the 30th of October 2014 to find this.
