It's sprint end/start though, so what can you expect?
Lunch was a sausage roll - the last of the ones I baked a little while ago, defrosted overnight in the fridge then reheated in the air fryer so the pastry wasn't flabby
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.
B12? You need to drink more Guinness.
7 pints of Guinness contains more than the RDA of B12.
Overcast again. Currently 12 degrees with a high of 14 expected. Barometer remains at 1030 mBar.

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.
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.
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?". . Not quite at the stage of Joe Kennedy being offered stock advice by his shoeshine "boy".
Walk (unabbreviated, towpath) walked in the sunshine. Can't say it was warm, but very pleasant.
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!
This thread seems to be the only one that gets much traffic nowadays.
How things have changed since the glory days of 200 posts/per day & people complaining, Specifically in General. of posters they'd never heard of with post counts in the 1000s. .
