... for some values of "locally".

It snowed and rained almost simultaneously here (in the smoke), which ultimately just made everything wet.
Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

There is an exception to every rule, apart from this one.

Cold and damp.  Not my favorite.  This time of year I am sad that we are no longer on the island.  It's been in the 20's here during the day and in the teens at night.  Ick.

The Mamas and the Papas become a threat.

You'd be one about now. AQI is in the 400's.

Yeah.  Warm, maybe, but most likely not safe.

I shoveled a little snow this morning.  When that happens, there's usually a second layer that comes along insuring that nature has the last word.  The sidewalks are white again.  They can stay that way until tomorrow.  It was wet snow, kind of like fancy rain.  The weather was crap but I went out anyway and ran some errands.

Most of the snow is melted, except for our front sidewalk (of course) which demonstrates high bunny traffic as there are rabbit tracks all across it.  I wonder where they hole up in this cold weather since they appear to be active all year round here.

Had to turn off the heating when I got out of bed.
Almost like Spring, emphasis on almost

golly! This is the architect (was) for the contract I am currently working. I have to liaise with him occasionally about sizing. Shocking stuff especially as I know who killed him (the police aren't releasing that info, obviously).

This is just terrible.  I'm sure it's traumatic for you.  And you'd think it would be safe in that area of London, especially given the real estate prices.  How awful.

Off the record, it was his TNG that done it. He'd had problems, apparently.

That's even more heart-breaking.

I remember him trying to convert Racton ruin for living in.

Will your contract go ahead with a new architect?

(... if not you will have some time to work on your website!)

I've been on this same damn job since March. It's nearly finished only now as planning wasn't approved until September and the main build didn't start until November.

That Mark Talbot was very old school. Didn't use CAD so my plans are hand drawn. I had been moaning about that but I just feel guilty now. Oddly, the last thing I said so him was that he really shouldn't be smoking at his age as it'll kill you!
