Brrr. Refuse bin put out and quickly back inside. Sun rain and wind today. Tried and failed to book a BT for next week so looks like an additional hospital visit. 2 minutes 15 listening to meningitis and online doctor booking messages before reaching the main menu. Should add those to it.

A chipper is better for that, it can be very embarassing when next door's dog takes a limb he has found in to his owners.

It's definitely been a four-seasons-in-one-day kind of day here chez Casa Reynard.

No problem, I was going to go to Tesco to get some groceries anyway, and could ask the bods in the in-store phone shop. But that was scuppered due to the level crossing barriers being down and staying down.

I was half watching that, but got up to make the evening's hot chocolate and put the radio on in the kitchen just in time to hear them introduce TTSSFU live from the 6Music festival in Manchester - one of quite a few that I'd like to have seen if I was in the area for the next few days. If I remember I'll catch up with the documentary on the iPlayer another day.
The hot chocolate has just been finished by the way.
