Morning denizens

Grey day here, and still breezy after what sounded like a very windy night. It’s 10°C (“feels like” 3°) and just about getting to 11° later, and the barometers are down some more at 992/1000mB

I had what seemed to be a decent night’s sleep in aggregate, though I did have some rather weird and fairly vivid dreams - nothing particularly unpleasant, though. Then I was awoken at 7 by the alarm I’d forgotten to turn off, after which I went back to sleep until half nine in protest

Morning all

Blue sky with very pretty fluff lumps gently wafting by. Currently 11 degrees ('feels like' 9) with a high of 12 expected. Cloud cover set increase with a risk of rain late afternoon. Barometer down to 1006 mBar.

Sunrise 08:01; Sunset 15:52 GMT

Today is decision day for two job offers and whether I want to do them both part time or just do one of them. As they're very different, I like the idea of doing both. Whilst one will be less flexible about part time, it will still be possible.

Started? I'm not sure it's stopped here since yesterday. . The Puddle(tm) is back: bigger and deeper than before. .

Morning.

Monday.

Wet. Very wet. Wetly wet with more wet in case the first wet wasn't wet enough.

Dark. Extremely dark.

Black side of grey.

Chilly in here at 14.5 deg, 12.5 in the kitchen, 12.5 in the leanto.

998 mBar, 29.47 in Hg, 748.6 Torr, 14.4747 psi, (down from 1003 last night), 67% RH (Lidl electric).

Meanwhile on the 6th of March 2020 Brillo and AndyGarbs popped in, Churchill was busy selling stuff to the Russians, NF had his first new £20 note which was used to pay the butcher, LM made madeleines in some Proustian endeavour, and I was in with the proles in the library.

Morning all

Everyone running late today.

Darkest start to a walk this morning - overcast and very blustery. The good news was that we got back in before the rain started.

I wasn’t in the mood for learning more about Sam Pepys’ terrible behaviour just yet, so tonight’s reading has been Barbara Comyns’ Sisters By a River. She’s a very idiosyncratic writer, and very entertaining

Monday again tomorrow! But not that kind of Monday

Goodnight all

[ladymuck]

The bed has been made.

[xoggoth]

Just went up the road and posted my xmouse cards. Just neighbours left to do. That tiny spider still dangling over me monitor, ~2mm. Maybe he wants a Christmas present.

[ladymuck]

Uneventful drives to and from Mum's.

Found out I'd missed a bill after my Dad died and her Southern Water account is still in his name. So now I'm having to sort that out three years after the event. I could have sworn I dealt with it but hey ho.

Must make the bed before it gets too late. Laundry can wait until tomorrow.

The old freezer had got a bit colder because of all the cold stuff, and the fridge-freezer continued to cool down rapidly, so I brought all the food back when they were both at around -13°C

It seems as if there’s more room in there now, but I think it’s just because I stacked stuff differently so the free space that was spread around is now mostly in the same place

[NickFitz]

Late lunch, or early tea? Actually: breakfast! A nice fry-up

And to go along with this, the traditional Sunday afternoon Time Team in which they’re digging up a load of back gardens in Ipswich looking for a Roman villa

The freezer is already down to -2.7°C, which is much lower than I expected it to have managed in a couple of hours
