[WTFH]

Looks like it's back.

[DoctorStrangelove]

WTF?

Morning.

Friday.

Wet.

Grey.

Sunless.

Chilly in here at 12.9 deg, 12 deg in the kitchen, 10.5 in the leanto.

977 mBar, 28.85 in Hg, 732.8 Torr, 14.17 psi, (down from 981 last night), 63% RH (Lidl electric).

And now the 13th of March 2020 will remain a mystery.

[WTFH]

Morning all

TFIF, etc
Full wet weather gear earlier as it was raining and windy. The first 45 mins of the walk were like that, but as we turned for home the rain eased. There are some breaks in the ominous low clouds revealing higher clouds that look a smidgen less ominous.

Tonight’s major motion picture wasn’t a premiere, but it was Watchmen (2009), and the full three and a half hour version to boot. I first watched this a couple of years ago, but I think I might even buy the book because it’s a very good film but there’s probably bits in the book that they missed out

And then a couple more episodes of Hijack which is also very good

Goodnight all

Tea has been steak and chips with fried onion

The bed has been remade!

Nahjongy thing this morning. Really tired earlier after another *** night's sleep but felt much better after a brisk walky.

Managed to copy that occasional odd CUK thing at top:

Nicely om'd DrS

Work worked. Quiet day tomorrow. Although starts with a 9.30 am meeting.

[NickFitz]

Another week done!

I spent some time mucking around with some React.js stuff this afternoon. The other dev had done a chunk of the work, and they know React better than I do, so I wanted to check I’d be able to understand how things worked well enough to be able to carry on with it next week when they’ll be busy with something else - better to badger them with questions today rather than distracting them then! But I seem to have reached the “just about adequate at React” stage, as I was able to get some rather neat bits added to the UI without hassling them at all

[NickFitz]

Lunch has been the last bit of pork pie

Bit sick of it by now TBH. I shouldn’t buy the big ones, but if I get the smaller ones I tend to eat them all in one go

The rain came but seems to have gone, though there’s a 55% likelihood of it returning at teatime

And before lunch I found time to unmake the bed, so that's now airing and will be remade this evening with a new set of bedding I got from M&S recently

[DoctorStrangelove]

Om?

[ladymuck]

Morning all

Dull, overcast, wet. Currently 8 degrees ('feels like' 6) with a high of 10 expected. Rain set to return this afternoon. Barometer up to 998 mBar.

Sunrise 07:53; Sunset 16:33 GMT

Gig 3 still not issued a contract but the boss of the person who hired my services wants a chat to go over the the wider context of the programme and let me know what's going on with the paperwork, so that's encouraging.

Morning.

Thursday.

Dark.

Dank.

Wet.

Sunless.

Dreary.

Chilly in here at 12.9 deg, 11.5 in the kitchen, 10 in the leanto.

982.5 mBar, 29 in Hg, 736.9 Torr, 14.25 psi, (up from 980.5 last night), 68% RH (Lidl electric).

Meanwhile in March 2020 see yesterday.

Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: some theatrical luvey waffling on about weird plays and staging plays weirdly: The cherry orchard where the cast and orchestra are in boxes and the sound is only turned up when they're talking about the tree. . Went down well with the kiddies, not so well with the grownups who thought they'd paid to watch The cherry orchard. .

Book.

Walk (towpath, abbreviated) walked in the grey gloom with rain at the end.

Tea: beans on toast etc. Nice enough.

Entertainment: PM <click> Book.

Just discovered they've demolished one of the local Lidls plus 3 other shops so they can put up a bigger Lidl. Middle of Lidl on steroids!

Book.

Discovering Harrison Ford.

Book. Other book.

Lucy Worsley Victorian Murders 3/3.

[WTFH]

Following yesterday's "wrong trousers", when I went into the garden at 6am it was drizzling, so I put on my waterproof trousers as well as the long coat. By about 6:45 it had stopped raining.
Raining again now, but it's looking a bit brighter to the east.

[NickFitz]

Morning denizens

Another grey day, with a 60% chance of rain in the next hour but not after that - well, not until tonight. It’s 7°C (“feels like” 1°) with an expected 8° for much of the afternoon; the barometers are down a bit at 977/984mB

Thursday! Not sure how many meetings the day will be plagued with, but not too many if I’m lucky

[NickFitz]

Tonight’s only viewing was the remainder of last night’s Police Interceptors

I must remember to watch E2 of that thing about the Swedish women who went berserk on the motorway.

In Stalingrad, mayhem continues - but winter has started, and the Germans have launched and failed at what will turn out to be their last major assault on what’s left of the city

The rain’s back

But: Thursday tomorrow!

This weekend will be one of great confusion as my routine is thrown into disarray by an appointment with the dental hygienist on Saturday. I’ll be across the river for that so I’ll put the shopping off until then, as I can head down to Big Sainsbury’s after it

Goodnight all
