Feels colder today, but not cold enough for the heating to kick in yet. Having four of us in the house must generate some heat, so that keeps it warm, until everyone else goes out. Wife working in London today so I was up to take her to the station. Boys at school, T2 already gone. He's started taking soup into school for lunch, that will keep him warm. All his idea, he asked for a thermos for his birthday. I think he has used that more now than the smart watch he also asked for. T1 is moving about, but he goes in later. Even later today, he's not planning to get the bus, his cousin is giving him a lift in for some driving practice. So temperature will drop as they all leave and will be cold enough for the heating to kick in a bit when it's just me here. Maybe I should tweak that, I can put another jumper on.
We don't have quite enough info to say "when it is only Paul in the house, drop the temperature" because for some reason the other three don't like having their movements tracked. Wife actually does have it, I do, boys do not. Maybe there's something I can do.
I got some sounds out of my radios yesterday, I used the Roberts radio as a bluetooth speaker while I was doing the ironing in the playroom, room that otherwise has no speakers. And I figured out more of the multiband radio. It's basically a fancy walky talky, it can do quite a lot, but it's so complicated. I found the FM on there, but like with the other radio I can only reliably tune into French stations. Maybe I can only speak to French people on the CB / walkie talkie bit of it. Not figured out other frequencies, it must do medium wave and long wave and so on. It also has GPS and APRS and some weather thing that I think only works in the USA.
Work is good, very busy, secret projects. I keep getting added to them, am kind of on three at the moment, though one I'm not involved in yet and one is possibly phasing out. But the big one is full steam ahead.
Light rain and a moderate breeze, 7 - 11℃.
