Blog2026 ≫ I have had the TV to myself all week

Apart from the first day of this little holiday, when we both watched Better Call Saul at T1's request, I've been in charge! I struggled for a minute with what to actually watch in the evenings. I don't have long enough for a film before bed time really, and I can't watch anything anyone else wants to keep up with. I remembered Young Sherlock, which I really like and everyone else hated. It's a bit cheesy and annoying but I really like it. So finished the series of that on my own. I love the not-quite-authentic over the top aesthetic of it, I am thinking of getting myself a bowler hat.

Work going quite well today, I did forget to put something live that I swore was live, but just recovered that.

Turns out yes you can steam peas and corn, yesterday's dinner was fine. Tonight we're going out for a curry, a last night of surviving on our own celebration. Then tomorrow, day off! But lots of driving, going to collect wife and T2 from airport. They seem to have had a great time in Bergen. When they're back we'll start looking at our holiday. I mentioned it to T1, saying I'm torn between something more city breakish like we did last year, or a package by the pool, and he says city break. So we might do some independent booking, split over only two different places though I think. And I'm keen to look for a hotel with a pool for at least part of it. If a last minute all inclusive package turns up though I still might overrule.

Still hella windy out there, but no time for a walk yet today.

44Kph winds and thundery showers, 10 - 17℃.
