Mundane News

Another hot one today, with forecast maximum of 38. It's currently almost noon, and is 34 outside the house and 24 inside. Tomorrow will be hotter, reaching about 41. Feel free to post numerous gratuitous photos of UK snow.

More like a bottomless sea of mud...

Right, time for me to slope off to bed.

I have an indoor/outdoor thermometer in my bedroom, which a little while ago showed 24 degrees inside and 69.5 outside, because the outdoor sensor for it is hanging next to an outdoor wall in direct sunlight. I just checked it again, and it now shows "24 / HI". It looks like the outdoor temperature just exceeded the sensor's specifications.

@Shut Up Legs,
England's highest motorway, not uncommon in colder weather.

Not that bad, it's still open in the picture.

What tha do?

Nothing ! I just felt a twang and then Oops that hurts ! I think it is just a muscle. It didn't like me taking it for a cycle ride earlier .

Are you a masochist ? I'm a software engineer, and have used various programming languages, and C is one of my least favourite. It may be very efficient, but messing around with pointers can get pretty ugly. I've used C++ and Java for my current employer, but last year I started on a new role with a change of pace: PHP, HTML and Python (i.e. web-based programming).
I think I still have an old copy of Kernighan & Ritchie's book on C programming somewhere: that used to be THE definitive book on C.

Does it involve the use of a hammer ? I don't like doing things unless it involves the use of one !

I'm with you there: I've got to be sociable today. I've no problem with any of the people individually, just not all at once...

Why is it that some peeps think that an annoying screeching noise is a good backing track to some adverts at the moment . I'm thinking of the M&S one .

Why don't they go the whole hog and record the sound of someone scraping a metal object across a blackboard !

Nah it's re-formatting that needs a hammer.

I've sterilised the bird feeding thingie this morning.
It's amazing how many gunky bits of old seed were lurking in the corners.
All clean, now, and ready to be reassembled and restocked.

[Lullabelle]

Amen to that Lou. None at mine ever.

Bin day tomorrow so the cards will go.
