Morning all

Overcast and warm (12C) on our walk, thankfully I noted the temperature before choosing a jacket.

Back in, and have watched the JL advert. I didn't see anything obvious in it to raise the blood pressure of wailers, but I'm sure they'll find something to be offended by.

Morning denizens

Somewhat cloudy start after some overnight rain, but clearing towards the east so getting sunnier later. A bit milder as a result, being 9°C but only getting to 12°. The barometers are down a bit but still optimistic at 1020/1029mB

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

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.

Morning all, Seattle calling, local time 0643

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.

[NickFitz]

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

Book. Other other book (Foundation 5th story).

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