    Morning all

    Dry.

    Blue sky with hints of simpsonesque visible through the gap in the curtains.

    15.4 deg in here today probably down to the expenditure of gas yesterday.

    I believe it to be a Tuesday.

    So Dr Pimple Popper this evening at 21:00 on Quest Red.
    When the fun stops, STOP.

        Morning denizens

        Grey, rainy, and 5°C out

        Down to 15.6° in here too. As I’m expected to work in these conditions, the fire is going on

            Cold and dark when I left home at 0625 this morning. Clear sky though. Bit of a stiff breeze going on.

            Not looking to venture outdoors until home time.

              In with the hoi polloi.

              Still sunny out there, but quite chilly on the stagger down.

              It's quite fragrant in here at the moment as the flatulent one hasn't started sharing yet.



              Byeeee

                  I bet the one in the bathroom is full of air again.
                  I wish we had a forum where people were experts on bleeding radiators. I know where people talk about gladiators. And DFS sofas. And Chutney spoons. But not radiators.

                  Sadly since they do't know where the money pit actually was because it's been dug up for 2 centuries, the info ain't much use.

                  In onther other other news of the OI nutjobbery the lead cross found in Smith's Cove has been isotopically traced to lead mines in a region of southern France, wait for it, wait for it, close to where the Knights Templar were located back in the day.

                  In other other other other news, the latest borehole turned up clay, sand, and granite, and it would appear that the sonar turned up what was probably a subglacial stream or river.

                  In other other other other other news, the very expensive piling in Smith's Cove springs a leak in the next ep.
                  Another hour of my life saved!

                    I'm not a fan of the early rounds; it gets more interesting later on once they've kicked the dross out.
                    I never watch it. Mrs BP just shouts at the telly all the things they did wrong - and how to fix them. I wish I could get her to enter.....

                      That didn't last long, by the time I'd left the hoi polloi it was 10 10ths overcast and the rain started halfway through the walk just as I reached the viewless point.

                      Trip to Morrisons was pointless, it being infested with coffin dodgers who plainly have the same order to the week as the late Strangelove mater.
