    A bedding wash is on

    It turns out to be a bit of a day for bedding, as DPD turned up just now with a delivery from John Lewis: 1600 thread count Egyptian cotton fitted sheet, duvet cover, and pillowcases. Oh, and a cashmere throw for a bedspread. This little lot cost me just over a grand, and is a Christmas present to myself

    Afternoon denizens

    It’s a rainy grey day, and expected to continue so. Quite mild at 10°C (“feels like” 7°) and aiming for 11° shortly. The barometers have gone back down to 987/994mB

    Heavy rainy stuff, got soaked coming back from Mahjong thing this morning. Darn it, there's a leak in my conservatory roof. Must have been leaking for some time as one of the cushions is going green with algae.

    Morning all

    Dull. Damp. Overcast. Currently 11 degrees ('feels like' 9) with a high of 12 expected. Rain forecast around lunchtime and expected to continue on and off for the rest of the day. Barometer down to 1006 mBar.

    Sunrise 08:03; Sunset 15:53 GMT

    One gig secured for 2026. Waiting on confirmation of a second. I have a hunch the director of ConsultancyCo is out of the office which is annoying as they've also not approved my November invoice for payment and that's due at the end of the month during the company's Christmas shut down.

    Morning.

    Thursday.

    Damp.

    The Puddle(tm) is back having gone away yesterday.

    Grey.

    Dark.

    Dreary.

    Sunless.

    Chilly in here at 14.4 deg, 12.5 in the kitchen, 12 in the leanto.

    999.5 mBar, 29.52 in Hg, 749.69 Torr, 14.496 psi, (down from 1001.5 last night), 65% RH (Lidl electric).

    Meanwhile on the 6th of March 2020 Brillo, eek, LM and BR14 popped in whilst NF regaled us with the rather sad history of the garage he uses.

    Lunch: brunch.

    Tea: beans on toast etc. Entertainment: PM.

    "The War" E11 of 14. Apparenlty after 3 loooong years the Septics were getting tired of the war. Just imagine how the UK & the rest of Europe felt. . <click>.
