Today we wandered around Pike Street Market (the birthplace of Starbucks, we didn't go to that bit) and then took a wander down to Pioneer Square.

It's now nearly 4pm and we'll soon be getting ready to visit a university friend of HWMBO's for dinner.

I must have blinked & missed that bit. . Then again much of E3 was "watched" with the sound muted.

And what was the opinion thereon?

There are times when the Lucan-hunting chap's obsessive nature gets a bit exasperating, but it's worth persevering to the (surprising) end

This evening's reading has been a bit more of Lying for Money, with some interesting lessons in business strategy from the accountant to the Kray twins

Thursday tomorrow!

Goodnight all

Accompanied by the final episode of Lucan

And what was the opinion thereon?

Tea has been shepherd's pie. Very tasty

Accompanied by the final episode of Lucan

Another Scrambled Maps that seemed like it would be a nightmare but I got it in ten moves, though helped rather by seven or eight tiles (of 25) being in the right place to start with

Quite nice meeting at pub this morning with local history society bunch, all old farts as usual. Nice sunniesh walky later.

This evening, I finished The Peepshow in which the death penalty was eventually abolished

I was wondering why such a subject would be covered in a David Mitchell comedy episode until I Googled it.

Meanwhile on the 1st of December 2019 LM was surrounded by fost & frog, and, in a Cunning Plan had smashed 6 dinner plates & a pyrex dish at a family do the previous evening.

I remember that event. The family still take the mickey out of me for it.

Dark, sun rise is at 0713. Raining and that's expected all day. Currently 10 degrees with a high of 13 expected. Barometer at 1000 mBar.

Our flight was an hour late but otherwise had a very pleasant time. Knackered though.

I remembered I had a smallish bit of steak & Guinness pie left in the freezer, so that was lunch

The slight mist first thing thickened into a definite fog after an hour or so. Not sure when it dissipated as I was working by then, but it's a sunny day with an almost clear sky now

Went to look for some components for a project. Found stuff I'd long forgotten about, which is always a nice surprise. .

Maigret: the one where the cop gets shot by the jewel thieves and Palmari gets offed as well.

[WTFH]

Morning all
CBS, etc. I even went as far as wearing a heavier jacket over a t-shirt. I prefer cold and dry to raining -when it comes to walking.

[NickFitz]

Wot is the opinion of "Lucan"? .

I'm finding it pretty interesting - I'll probably watch the third and final part tonight

Morning denizens

Bit of a misty start, but looks as if it'll turn into a sunny morning once the sun gets high enough, before clouding over towards lunchtime. Getting chilly in the morning now: 3°C to start, though rising to 11° later. The barometers remain quite high at 1025/1033mB
