        Tea was not ribs, but Iceland chunky battered cod (I think; might have been haddock) with chips and beans. Very tasty

          Dinner was something very tasty with beef and peppers but after several beverages celebrating World Cocktail Day, it was all rather wasted on me.

            Entertainment (continued): Civilisaton E9. The Pursuit of Happiness: all about Rococo, which, it must be said, is fecking hideous, with added Germanic howling in place of the Italian howling of previous eps.

            "The Men who stare at Goats", from a book by Jon Ronson.

            Fairly amusing in its way.
            When the fun stops, STOP.

              I watched that a few years ago. I vaguely remember rather enjoying it

              Here tonight, I was back on the ST:TNG (and back on the white wine, as it helps with that). First up: S4E3 Brothers (TV Episode 1990), in which Brent Spiner gets lots of overtime, as much of it involves him playing himself, his brother, and their inventor all in the same room. Oh, spoiler alert BTW, though it is thirty years ago it was first broadcast so, you know

              By a process of elimination, you might deduce that next up was S4E4, and you’d be right: Suddenly Human (TV Episode 1990). This is one of those “alien culture’s values conflict with ours but with a twist” ones that leaves lots of room for sententious pondering aloud and not much for anything very interesting happening

              And finally for this evening, it’s S4E5: Remember Me (TV Episode 1990), in which they once again let Wesley muck about with warp bubbles, leading inevitably to Bad Things happening to the space-time continuum. I don’t understand why they keep letting him do that, because dumb tulip happens every single time. But as spatiotemporal anomaly episodes go, I reckon this is a good one; I enjoyed it (having last seen it at least twenty years ago) at any rate

              Goodnight all

                  Sunny and blue sky again.

                  A tad nippy at 5 degrees. Cloud cover to increase from lunch time with a high of 12 forecast.

                  First coffee being drunk. Will have a bit of toast in a while.


                  Ditto yesterday

                  Tired today. This three day working is wearing me out.
