you can watch that game and stay awake???Originally posted by WTFH View PostMorning all
Woke up 15 mins ago and decided it was too late to try to go back to sleep, then remembered the Ashes. That will keep me occupied until it’s time to take Max out for a perambulation.

Morning.
Friday.
Damp.
Wanly sunny.
Chilly in here at 13.3 deg, 12 in the kitchen, 9 in the leanto.
998.7 mBar, 29.49 in Hg, 749 Torr, 14.485 psi, (down from 999 last night), 61% RH (Lidl electric).
Meanwhile on the 4th of March 2020 LondonManc, DaveB and NF popped and contributed to the LM inspired discussion of Soreen and cake whereas I sent some of my tea to the compost heap for some reason and then watched "Two mules for Sister Sarah" which isn't amongst my favourite Eastwood epics by any means.
Walk (abbreviated due to inclemency of the weather, towpath) walked. It rained on me.
Lunch: brunch. Entertainment: the last ep of the Tom Stoppard biog.

Sunny start, though with wisps and layers of cloud hither and yon. Bit colder today: 3°C now supposedly “feels like” -2° and sunlight will only get us to 7° - though rain will arrive tonight and warm things up, with a leap to 9° before midnight! The barometers are up a bit at 992/1000mB

This evening’s telly was a new episode of Police Interceptors
Later, I finished The Forgotten Soldier, in which his retreat from the Red Army continued northwards from Poland via a siege on the Baltic coast and eventual escape by sea - several times, managing to get from one port to another on overloaded small vessels. His military service eventually came to an end in the hands of British and American troops in Schleswig-Holstein. Weirdly, he’d been recruited by the Wehrmacht on the grounds of having a German mother (his father being French), but the Allies determined that they could only hold him as a PoW if he’d had a German father, and as far as they were concerned he was a French civilian. So they let him go and sent him home to France
I’m inordinately pleased that I woke up early enough to get the haircut first thing and was able to do the shopping at lunchtime, as it means I have no errands left to run tomorrow!
Goodnight all

Tea has been a rack of ribs with smoky BBQ sauce and chips
And while that was cooking, I made the meaty part of a shepherd’s pie. This is now cooling down in the dish, and will spend the night in the fridge so the flavours of the various herbs and spices I chucked in will have a chance to develop and mingle

Lunch has been delayed. We weren’t too busy anyway, and the other dev needed to deal with some stuff relating to the builders that are currently installing a heat pump in her house - they’ve not had any heating through all the cold weather while they waited for this. So I took the opportunity to nip along to Not-as-Big Sainsbury’s, and now the two errands I needed to run this weekend (shopping and haircut) are both sorted!
I got some cold cocktail sausages, which I can snack on whilst working, so I’d better get back to it
It’s pouring with rain here now
