13.09.2025 Just toiling away.

 ~o~

  Saturday 13th 54F/11.7C [7.15] Very, very dark! And quite windy. We are promised some sunshine  this morning. Once the cloud has cleared. More rain this afternoon. Though the worst of it is currently forecast to slide past to the west of us. Golden light has just illuminated the tops of the western trees. 

 Up at 6.00 after a middling sort of night. 

 I have spent the entire morning working on my solar telescope. Up and down stairs. Searching for stuff.

 12.50 A power cut. The main switch had tripped. I had just switched on the kettle. Otherwise I am not using much electricity at all. Everything went back to normal when I pushed the switch back on. The kettle came back on and boiled as usual. It boiled later as well. Very odd.

 I have spent the rest of the day successfully setting up astronomical equipment. I dragged it all outside. Only for it to immediately cloud over. Of course the sun came out a bit later. 

 Dinner was a huge pile of salad. 

 11.00 I was watching TV. Nothing exciting. When I started getting chest pains at about 10.45. My heart seemed to be working far too hard despite my being relaxed. I have used the nitroglycerine spray. It has helped. 

 I have an emergency bag of clothing inside the main [back] door and left the door unlocked. In case I need to call an ambulance. I have charged my phone and will leave it by my bed. Along with the charger and my hearing aids. I had nothing with me when I last went into hospital. I didn't know I would be needing it in advance. 

 11.15 Bed time.
