I read some more of Shepperton Babylon covering the exploitation films (skin flicks, often horror ones, to you and me) of the 1960s and 1970s, culminating in The Great Rock and Roll Swindle

I'm feeling a bit under the weather again; headache, runny nose. I always seem to get this kind of thing at the start of the week, presumably because I go to places containing other human beings on Friday. With luck it'll be a mild one

Goodnight all

Tea has been ribeye steak with chips, fried onions and beans, as the steak Needed to be Eaten™

Accompanied by an episode of the motorway cops thing that's hardly ever on a motorway

Scrambled Maps for me was 23 moves on a 5x5 of Poznań, Poland

Another day done. I thought that I'd get to help out some other guys on something which, though possibly not hugely interesting, would at least keep me occupied. But the chaps who needed to tell me what it was about and what needed doing etc. got bogged down on some big problem, during which they weren't responding to any messages. Then the consultancy that the rest of them are with had one of their meetings. So in the end, I didn't have anything to do until mid-afternoon when one of them was finally able to get me helping with something

Still having bouts of fatigue. But managed to fix a few issues for customer. Coldish (8) here, and wet.

Pass the cyanide, xoggoth.

[xoggoth]

Funny. Had a rotten nights sleep last night and not tired at all today. Yesterday felt tired after a good night.

Think everything one reads about health is rubbish. Going to stop sleeping and just lie about all day and live on a diet of alcohol and cyanide. Should live to be 120.

[NickFitz]

More KFC leftovers for lunch

Turned a bit drizzly off and on here, which was not forecast

[xoggoth]

Darn it! Me little van failed the MOT. Hopefully will all be repaired today. Nice local walk but woods I used to wander in all fenced off now. B***ds!

Coffee looked/tasted bit odd this morning. I'd dropped a tea bag in the kettle. Or was it the evil spirit again?

[ladymuck]

Morning again.

going to see about my other eye this week
scrambled maps Belém, Brazil in 34 moves! (6 x 6 map), and wiv lotsa sea, too

My scrambled maps this morning was somewhere in Poland. 23 moves on a 5x5 map.

Morning all

Dull but there's gaps in the clouds. Damp. Currently 9 degrees with a high of 10 expected. The gaps in the clouds may become more pronounced as the day progresses although it'll never quite reach "sunny" status. Barometer steady at 1012 mBar.

Three coffees had so far.

[DoctorStrangelove]

Morning.

Monday.

Dry.

Sunny.

Blue sky in parts.

Chilly in here at 14.3 deg, 13 deg in the kitchen, 12 deg in the leanto.

1010.5 mBar, 29.84 in Hg, 757.9373 Torr, 14.656 psi, (up from 1007 last night), 64% RH (Lidl electric).

This morning's dream before waking involved designing something with a microcontroller, losing the databook, then wandering around a park where the paths were being raked. Really odd. Another nightmare job.

Meanwhile on the 6th of December 2019 I was still after the 's flu jab, it was generally wet as indicated by WTFH's filthy dog walk, BR14 was woken early by someone starting a compressor & an angle grinder next door at the inconsiderate time of 08:30, and covbob celebrated the deluge, with LM having a slight rant at her then current client, no doubt brought on by being woken by "Today" & having to get out of bed to turn it off, whereas NF discovered that his dental appointment was in December rather than the January he'd expected. I hate it when that happens.

Shopping trip to Morrisons done dusted washed dried sanitised & put away. Plenty of Glengettie tea today.

Walk (unabbreviated) walked in the sunshine: timed to a tee since it's raining now.

Lunch: brunch.

Entertainment: Y&Y. TWATO, much whining about triggering women. . FFS.

Freecell score in the grey gloom: 85%, running average: 80%.

Tea: chilli con carne (tinned, Morrisons saver), better than some I've tried, etc.

Entertainment: Nazi Hunter thing: commandant of Treblinka.

Paul Sinha's pub quiz thing.

Thing about the Bronze Age Apocalypse: what happened to all the civilisations that disappeared about 1200 BC? Er, maybe part II will inform us.

Oak Island nutjobbery: down the hole they go. A snuff movie would make a pleasant & entertaining change.

And this week we ain't found tulip Gary finds some weird bobby dazzler that makes him cream his jeans despite what looks like a lump of red plastic stuck through it, and two of them finally go down the garden shaft to look at... more mud. And bits of wood, and planks and stuff.

[WTFH]

Morning all
A bit of drizzle on the walk earlier, then it cleared up and while the sun is shining, there's also menacing clouds to the north and west.

[NickFitz]

Morning denizens

Patchy cloud out, tending more towards cloud, leading to a refulgent red-gold dawn. It's expected to remain cloudy, but no rain is expected. Currently 7°C (but "feels like" 2°) with a possible high of 10°, and the barometers are down a bit more to 997/1005mB

[NickFitz]

This morning saw the usual glut of Monkey Life

This afternoon, the Canadian and NZ stuff was all things that have been repeated ad nauseam, so I spent some time mucking about with SwiftUI and Bluesky again

And this evening, as well as more Swift bits, an old 24 Hours in A&E

Monday again tomorrow. Only two more weeks, or eight days, to go till I finish for the year…

Goodnight all

Tea has been a bowl of Scotch broth, followed by a nice strawberry tart
