Friday 19th 30F/-1C. Rather cloudy but brightening in the east. Wintry shower promised. Strong gusts later. Storm force north of my location. Up at 7.40 after a reasonable night.
8.30 I really should light the stove. It's only 58F/14C in the room.
Sales of the Hovding inflatable cycle helmet has been banned and the Swedish makers have gone bust. The helmet was worn like a thick collar and was intended to inflate in an accident. To protect the cyclist's head from impact. Unfortunately there were many returns and complaints by buyers. Hovding was a clever play on the Scandinavian word hoved for head.
9.25 Returned from a short walk. Looping around the drives. About an inch of new snow overnight. A cold westerly wind and bright sunshine. Roads clear. Now 60F/15C in the room.
15.00 It is snowing. I have brought lots more logs indoors.
20.00 67F/19C in the room. Since I did not much enjoy the mince the other day I decided to hide it in a curry. Too much rice, too much meat and not enough sauce. Too much of everything in total. Making it hard work to get through it all.
