Apple's developer conference starts soon

Not sure if the keynote is still accompanied on Twitter by confused non-developers wondering when they're going to start talking about new iPhones

[NickFitz]

Lunch: a hot dog

[NickFitz]

Links are up

[xoggoth]

More toothpaste inspection later. And trip to the dump. Exciting. What fun life is!

[DoctorStrangelove]

Morning.

Monday apparently.

Dry.

Sunny.

Blue sky in parts.

Cool in here at 17.1 deg, 18 deg in the kitchen, 16 deg in the leanto.

1009 mBar, 29.796 in Hg, 756.8 Torr, 14.634 psi, (up from 1008 last night), 78% RH (GDR hair), 68% RH (Lidl electric).

Meanwhile on the 8th of October 2019 the missing guinea fowl was found, I went down the dump with green waste, just for fun, like, NF was having fun with Datagrip, whereas I was watching yet more Jeremiah S2 and Joan of Arcadia S1 but still smelling the presence of the kippers from several days earlier.

Shopping trip to Morrisons done dusted washed dried sanitised & put away.

Bought a Colin Watson book "Coffin scarcely used" (very rare to see a Colin Watson book) and as it transpires, I already have it, so off to Oxfam with it before I've even opened it.

Lunch: scrambled egg (just the one) etc.

Five lawns mown. Knackered now.

Entertainment: Veronica Mars S3 E6 "Hi infidelity": the one where Veronica's essay gets lit up like an Xmas tree by turnitin (or fictitious equivalent).

Tea: cheese & egg sandwich, cheese & ham sandwich, a round of toast, etc.

Thought I'd get the egg sandwich craving out of the way earlier today.

Entertainment: PM.

The last 10 minutes of Morse S1 E1 "The dead of Jericho", so I had to watch the last 4 minutes of Endeavour too.

Villages by the sea: Devon.

Abandoned Engineering (new): I wonder if there'll be any engineering in this one. .

NCIS S20 E20 "Second Opinion". The reviews are less than golden. .

No Beyond Skinwalker bollox this week, it ended last week.

No Gunfighters this week, ditto.

Some other tosh.

Morning all

Windy. Overcast. Damp. There was some rain overnight / early morning. The cloud is set to dissipate as the morning progresses but there's a chance of a shower late afternoon/early evening. Currently 11 degrees ('feels like' 8) with a high of 16 expected. Barometer down to 1010 mBar.

I did not appreciate the the noise of successive bin lorries (or that's what it seemed like) making a load of racket at 5.30 am. It's not even bin day on my road until tomorrow. I shan't miss that when I move. Assuming that's still on as the landlady still hasn't produced a gas safety certificate.

Morning denizens

A rainy night and, at the moment, a grey and rainy morning. The rain may stop in a couple of hours, but the cloud isn't expected to part until this evening. It's 8°C now and maybe reaching 14° this afternoon, with the barometers down a little at 997/1005mB

[WTFH]

Morning all
a little overnight precipitation and a cloudy start to a long day.

[NickFitz]

The usual US borders and NZ police stuff was on this afternoon; repeats, and largely ignored

Later, an episode of Trauma Room 1 followed by an old 24 Hours in A&E

Monday yet again tomorrow. The distortion of the weekend caused by my trip northwards yesterday has left me feeling discombobulated and unready for yet another week, but I don't suppose they'll accept that as an excuse

Goodnight all

[DoctorStrangelove]

Not showing edits again, so...

Morning.

Sunday.

Dry.

Sunny.

Blue sky.

Cool in here at 17.1 deg, 18 deg in the kitchen, 16.5 deg in the leanto.

1012 mBar, 29,884343 in Hg, 759.1 Torr, 14.6778 psi, (down from 1013 last night), 78% RH (GDR hair), 66% RH (Lidl electric).

Meanwhile on the 8th of October 2019 WTFH went for a walk, was off the painkillers, and was searching for a missing guineafowl, I got wet on the walk to Tonna lock after which the sun came out, whereas NF was waiting for the rain to arrive whilst ravelling the sleeve of care by knitting some soup. Or something. .

Getting concerned with some of the stuff that's coming out of my sinuses, I'm sure there was a bit of brain in that last one. .

Walk (unabbreviated) walked during which an acquaintance from years ago appeared, he seems to be the only one of the Sunday morning crew apart from me who's still alive.

Lunch: beans on toast etc.

Entertainment: some bollox on R4 about that Rylan chap. When Jack Dee came on it went extremely rapidly.

The last 15 minutes of a thing about the Pacific War complete with nuclear explosions. I wonder what Glyn the ex POW would have thought of this, he was at Nagasaki on the day.

A brief viewing of some Mini (Austin not BMW) race with nutters hurtling around some track or other on ITV4, prior to the BTCC.

Yet more D Day stuff, this time on PBS.

Freecell score: dire, walk away before

The dvd library on the stairs has been moved, cleaned behind & under, then replaced more or less where it was before. . WTF did I buy all this tulip for?

Tea: soup etc. with added chilli to attempt to make it a little more inneresting. Not that it worked particularly. .

Entertainment: thing on R4 about some film director chap. The one that did Michael Collins & Mona Lisa, the latter of which I think I've seen, the former residing unwatched in one of the piles on the stairs.

For some unknown & unknowable reason I've had a desire for a boiled egg sandwich, said desire has been satisfied yesterday & today. I discovered I can boil said egg in the kettle (you can't cook them in the poppity ping because they explode.

Skinwalker Ranch bollox on Blaze: "Something's Up".

I've decided to give the subpar Flipping Bangers a miss, it's about a Merc SLK this week.

Ancient Unexplained Files: More bollox but on DMAX instead.

[ladymuck]

Just heard an announcement on Channel 4 that there will be an "all new" episode of 24 Hours in A&E tomorrow evening

[NickFitz]

Tea: a nice big fry-up, involving sausages and bacon from Chatsworth
