    It's not much warmer out there than the last couple of days, but there's no chilly wind so it feels a lot milder

      Sounds mildly ominous but you never know, they might think of something to flog the end client

        I put the mundane laundry in the washing machine this morning, but postponed starting it as I was going to have a shower and I don't think the system here was designed to cope with both eventualities simultaneously.

        For the third time since then, I've remembered that I needed to put it on, and have finally done so

              The mundane laundry has been retrieved and draped over the clotheshorse in front of the fire

              Won't be long until it's warm enough to go back to drying it in the kitchen

                No rush. You don't have to do anything until the 21st.

                  Yes, just had a look at it and lost any sense of urgency. I'll set a reminder

                  The other year, I got the census records for this place from the late 19th century. I think it was 1891 that there was a Methodist minister staying here with the family and their two household servants. If he was an honoured visitor given the best guest room - and one assumes he would be - then he may well have slept in what is now my kitchen

                    Thats it, just ignore all my hard work!

                    It only takes 10 mins, if that.

                      I did mine straight away or else I'd probably forget.
