    Shopping done!

    Seen on this occasion for the first time in ages: another person wearing a facemask!

    I went to M&S first, primarily because the slippers I bought when I got this place are falling to bits so I need new ones. Just under two years they've lasted, but I've been working from home all that time so they get worn all day rather than just for a few hours in the evening

    It's a bit windy out. My weather app reckons it's just a light breeze

    Lunch: ham toasties

    Might go shopping in a bit but there's a minor point about the house sale that cropped up this morning and our conveyancer is on leave, so I'm supposed to be getting a call from one of her colleagues. Been waiting since about eleven

    Might strip the bed and leave that to air

    Morning all

    Cloudy start and a bit dull but the sun has started to break through. Currently 20 degrees with a high of 26 expected. My weather app has a thunderstorm warning for a vast swathe of the country but no such excitement is actually forecast for where I am. Barometer continues downwards to 1023 mBar.

    This morning's excitement, so far, is changing the Brita water filter and putting away the dried bed linen.

    Morning denizens

    I woke around eight and thought I might as well get up. Luckily, I then fell asleep again and woke for the second time nearer ten, and I reckon I feel better for it

    It's a grey day out again, but also quite mild at 16°C with an expected high of 21° - though the breeze is apparently making it feel like 12°. The barometers are down a little but still fairly high at 1016/1024mB

    Morning.

    Thursday judging by the racket on the road earlier.

    Dry.

    Sunny.

    Blue sky.

    Cool in here at 17.6 deg, 19 deg in the kitchen, 16.5 deg in the leanto.

    1020.5 mBar, in Hg, Torr, psi, (down from 1021 last night), 76% RH (Lidl electric).

    Meanwhile on the 14th of November 2019 DaveB's gardening oiks had cut down a rowan tree thusly causing the lightning and thunder, while the weather was so inclement I forewent my walk, NF was making stew, and LM was ordering gallons of plonk to take away the pain of WFH.

    Tonight's viewing was a NEW! Police Interceptors :

    And at various times throughout the day, I did bits with the maze stuff which is coming along nicely

    This evening, I finished To Catch a Spy, in which Thatcher's government failed at everything it attempted to do in connection with the matter, and MI5 was finally put on a legal footing, which was the one thing Thatcher was most opposed to - but she'd been booted out by her own party by then

    I did a bedding wash today but forgot to put it on until later than was wise, so I'm now waiting for the tumble dryer aspect of the machine to decide it's satisfied with the dryness of the sheet and pillow cases. Once it is, I can go to sleep

    Goodnight all

    I'd like to go to bed. In order to do that, I need to make it.
