Thursday 10th 50F/10C [7.10] A sunny day is promised but the WNW wind is gusting to 10m/s. Temperatures peaking at an autumnal 15C/59F.
Up at 6.30 after a very wakeful night. Yesterday's long naps took their toll.
I gave the heat pump a quick blast to raise the room to 21C/70F from 19C overnight. Don't want a chill after my shower.
Cooking class this morning. I might have cycled there but for the wind. Which I would be fighting all the way home.

Wednesday 9th
Woke feeling hot and sweating. Nausea. Spent 45 minutes sitting on the toilet. Not diarrhea. Went back to bed. Then woke later to vomit in a bucket. Horrible taste and smelt like chemicals.
11.00 Going back to bed and still feeling awful. Pain in my heart but no point in taking my tablets if I throw up again. Had a glass of water.
12.30 Slept for the rest of the morning. Feeling better. I'm going to throw the second half of the chicken away. It was the last of the eggs. Both were well within Best By date. My visitor reports no problems. So it wasn't the pastry. Everything else was my normal fare and was already open and used at least once.
I've had a bread roll with raspberry jam and a cup of tea. I needed something to keep my eight tablets down.
Chatted with my minder. To confirm proof of life. Old farts are supposed to burn their food. Not under-cook it! Allegedly.
It was a sunny morning, I think, but is darkening now and rain is here. The gravel has already darkened. I still haven't taken down the shade net on the greenhouse.
I decided to have lunch for dinner. Two wholemeal rolls, with raspberry jam, organic honey, curried herring and extra mature cheddar cheese. Not all on the same roll. With a cup of tea.
The heat pump had a quick blast to boost the temperature up to 21C when I started shivering.

Tuesday 8th 62F/17C [8.00] Very heavy overcast. 22 hours of rain forecast. 21C/70F in the room. The greenhouse is tracking the outside temperature. So no need to record it unless it is significantly different.
Up at 7am after a fairly quiet night.
I had time to tidy up a little before my friend arrived. Bearing gifts of spandauers. A Danish pastry.
My English friend visited me today. Leaving around 14.00. After two hours of chatting and having sorted out my phone's unwillingness to talk to my PC. I use this arrangement to monitor the robot mower in action. My problems were largely due to using too large a font on the phone screen. Set before I bought my new progressive glasses.
The afternoon was spent on YouTube.
Dinner was a chicken fry-up. With mushrooms, toast and tweggs.
