    For the sake of finding something to do, I think I'll go & hack some more off the garden.

    Ok.

    Scratch that idea it's raining again.

      Google Maps is absolutely convinced there's a road closure on the A6 and tries to send you off through Higham Ferrers. There is no road closure (it's in a couple of weeks and only at night, according to the signs) so I ignored it completely, but I noticed both going and coming back that the stretch of road in question seemed atypically quiet; presumably the centre of Higham Ferrers, such as it is, is unusually busy
      My favourite Enduro shop is in Higham Ferrers. John Lee Motorcycles.
      I was an IPSE Consultative Council Member, until the BoD abolished it. I am not an IPSE Member, since they have no longer have any relevance to me, as an IT Contractor. Read my lips...I recommend QDOS for ALL your Insurance requirements (Contact me for a referral code).

        I've always thought it's an odd little place, the way that rather than being in a clump like most small towns, it's sort of stretched out linearly along a mile or so of the road that used to be the A6 until the bypass was built

            Tedious but it does prevent us turning into one of those rather unhygenic elderly gentlemen.

            Tea was spag bol which was very nice.

            Wholemeal pasta so that should keep me regular.

            Portion control, as ever, was lacking.

            Stuffed now.

            Followed by nearly the last of the ground rice and 1.05 pints of Good Glengettie Tea.

            Have achieved exactly nothing this afternoon other than winning 87% of my Freecell games.

            Once the dishes are done, then it's S2E3&4 of "Jeremiah".

            "Jeremiah: Strange Attractor".

            "Jeremiah" Strange Attractors (TV Episode 2003) - IMDb

            "Jeremiah: Deus Ex Machina".

            Well there's a thing.

            Oh, and it's still raining, in fact it's raining rather more vigourously than it was.

            Not rivers in the gutter heavy but enough to need an umbrella heavy.

            Anyone know what AtW got banned for?

            Surely not for wanting Boris's head on a spike over Traitor's Gate

              No rain here yet but the radar shows it off to the west. Apparently it should be here in two or three hours, remain for most of the night, and possibly continue through much of tomorrow

                  Just checked the IMDb rating of a film I was thinking of watching. 3.5/10… maybe not tonight

                      No more than adequate.

                      Not as good as S2E1 & S2E2.

                      E4 introduces the season's new Big Bad after the Valhalla Sector arc.

                      There being a mere 11 more eps to watch before it's all done.

                      Now watchng "World War Weird" which is talking about The Roswell Weather Balloon crash.

                      Operation Paperclip.

                      Horton flying wing.

                      Ah. The Weather Balloon was a Soviet flying disk.

                      Now The Ghost Army, as in Patton's fictitious army before D Day.

                      Glen Miller.

                      Magic Dummy army in the desert leading to El Alamein.

                      Canaris as a double agent.

                      German spies. Double Crossing Adolph.

                      Canadian UFOs in WWI.

                      And wrapping it all up, the Pearl Harbour coverup.
