The weather is quite nice here today after a cool start which is just as well. I went out dressed in my gym gear under my coat intending to go to the nearby leisure centre for a couple of classes. Just as the door shut I realised I'd picked up the wrong keys. Had to take the train to husband's work instread to pick up his keys. Had a good walk back along the Thames path though which made up for the missed classes.

It still doesn't seem to know what season it's supposed to be here. It was cloudy, wet and moderately miserable for most of the day today, so I donned not only socks, but ankle boots to go out for choir practice. By the time we came out (at about 9:15 p.m.) it was 15°, and it's forecast to go up to 18° tomorrow. Socks may well have to be discarded once more ...

It’s my Guide Dogs coffee morning tomorrow. I’m lucky to live near the M&S factory seconds shop, so I got all the cakes (the sort they sell in their cafes) 6 big gateaux with 16 pieces each for £15! Plus some ‘emergency’ choc Swiss rolls 5 for £1.
All is ready. Lots of paw print soaps to sell and an impressive chocolate and cava raffle.

Good luck with that, Boogie. ![[Smile]](smile.gif)
Socks have indeed been (temporarily) discarded, but judging by the sound of rain hammering on the roof (O the joys of living in a bungalow!), wellies may be required ...
We've got a special Evensong incorporating a book launch on Sunday, and there's to be WINE and CHEESE afterwards, the organisation of which seems to have fallen to D. and me. This means a trip to the market tomorrow morning and probably to Costco, the dollar-store and the off-licence later this evening (in the rain).
Why do I let myself get roped into these things?

Well done on the coffee-morning, Boogie! ![[Yipee]](graemlins/spin.gif)
I'm now at the stage of wondering what vital element of the wine & cheese I've forgotten.
Wine: ✓
Cheese: ✓
Grapes: ✓
Crackers: ✓
Bread: will go into the oven shortly
Butter: ✓
Paper plates and napkins: ✓
Disposable wineglasses:* ✓
Cheese knives, boards, serving plates etc.: ✓
We deliberately got wine in screw-top bottles, so that forgetting the corkscrew won't be an issue. ![[Hot and Hormonal]](icon_redface.gif)

I saw Labour of Love yesterday afternoon by my new favourite trick - standing tickets at £10. This is a new play by James Graham, starring Martin Freeman and Tamsin Greig, the latter replacing Sarah Lancashire two weeks before the opening. Definitely worth seeing, but by the time I'd walked down from Tottenham Court Road tube station, stood for three hours, walked to the BBC in Portland Place and stood in that queue to go through the airport style checking, I did know I'd been on my feet for 4½ hours. That was to see a new Marcus Brigstocke sitcom called The Wilsons Save the World and included some very talented child actors, and a "goodness, did they really say that on Radio 4" moment. They really did.
Lots of the West End theatres release standing tickets a week or so in advance to sold out shows - I noticed it at Don Juan in Soho which starred David Tennant, although I used theatre vouchers to buy a ticket there.

I must confess that standing for 3½ hours is not something for which I'd pay £10, no matter who I was watching (with the possible exception of old Top Gear - James May would be worth it ... ).
* * * * *
Well, so much for the extra hour's sleep. I very rarely need an alarm to wake up: I'm almost invariably awake at least half an hour before I need to be, but when I reset the house clocks last night I must have had some sort of brain-fart when it came to the alarm clock beside the bed. It woke me up at what it said was 7:30, but when I looked at the oversized clock on the dressing-table it was saying 8:15 - oh $%!@!!!
It takes a very special sort of stupidity to get it wrong by ¾ of an hour - how the hell did I manage that??
I hate when that happens - it discombobulates me for the rest of the day. At least I had all the bits and pieces for the wine & cheese ready by the door to be taken out to the car, so the panic could have been worse.
Then, when we got to the Cathedral, we found that the early service had over-run, so we wouldn't have been late anyway ... ![[Roll Eyes]](rolleyes.gif)

You are, of course, quite right.
The weather here still doesn't seem to know whether it's coming or going: having been about 5° yesterday, although it's seasonably dreich today, it's 17°. At least it isn't boring.

Not too bad here - a typical sunny autumnal November day, just the right weather for clearing the flower tubs/pots at Our Place....
But wait - what is this? The Garden Refuse Bin is full! It will not be emptied by a benevolent Council until Wednesday!
Nothing else to do, but to Amble Gently to the nearby café, and to imbibe TEA, and eat CHEESE (in the form of a nice cheese-and-onion toastie).

I like snug Evensnogs. We used to have one at Our Place every month - with Benny Diction added - but it's in abeyance until we get a new priest-in-charge.

The temperature here has taken quite a nose-dive - 17° yesterday and 3° today. I don't think ambling will be achieved, unless I get D. to drop me off at the shopping centre while he rehearses with the band this evening.
Since the clocks went back at the weekend, it's dark by about 5 in the afternoon, which is another disincentive ...

Yes ... what actually happens is that, if you switch on the engine on a cold morning, or if you're driving and the temperature drops, you get a not-very-loud beep inside the car. It's to warn you of a "potential ice hazard".
Where it an get annoying is when the temperature is exactly 3 degrees outside, as then it may peep quite often if the temperature rises or falls slightly in varying traffic conditions.
I wonder if they bother to leave out the device on cars sold in (say) Nigeria?

My last car used to display a small snowflake when it got down to a certain temperature (can't remember what it was). Living in central Arizona, it rarely gets down below freezing, and I've seen a flake or two of snow two or three times in the 30+ years I've lived here. I don't think I need to worry about icy roads or winding up in a snow drift. But the snowflake was cute and was a nice dashboard decoration.
I've only had my current car since last spring, so I'll wait and see if I get the "Danger! Snow!" warning.

The road surface is usually colder than the air, especially early in the morning. The air might be 4 degrees, but there could well be ice on the road.

There, there, BF.
**proffers tea, CAKE and GIN**
I haven't ambled for several days (unless you count being on my feet for most of Sunday and a spot of light ambling round a shopping-centre yesterday). I'm not ill or anything; I just don't seem to have much get-up-and-go.
As it was a nice day, we took an early-evening drive out of town and had a cup of tea and a piece of PIE at a wee cafe that we rather like.
Must really do more than absolutely-essential housework - that'll burn a calorie or two, won't it?

The alternative, of course, would be to rootle around in the biscuit tin and look for any that are broken. It is a well-known fact that all the calories leak out through the break, thus rendering them enjoyably harmless.
P.S. Not sure if this applies to CHOCOLATEY ones.
P.P.S. We have a cherry pie in the fridge waiting (little does it suspect!) to be eaten for dinner.

Thanks for the good wishes, CAKE, GIN, etc. I'm pleased to report that Toes are feeling better this morning.
I shall go for an Amble later, despite the mist and drizzle, and have been inspired by others to purchase a PIE (probably Kate and Sidney) for lunch.
Speaking of PIES, a new family pub that has just opened in our parish does a wonderful Chicken, Gammon, and Mustard PIE.....mmm.....

It's a Marston's, so, yes - there's probably one not too far away from you!
Enjoying a post-amble WHISKY now, and looking forward to tea-time. I didn't have PIE for lunch, after all, as I wasn't feeling all that hungry, but there's chicken hot-pot for later.

P.S. I love the eminently sensible theory that breaking a biscuit automatically allows the calories to leak harmlessly out.
Surely, though, this must also apply to CAKE, CHOCOLATE, PIE, CHEESE, etc. etc., as all those indispensable and necessary-to-wellbeing foodstuffs have to be broken in some way before being consumed.

Around here the postulate is that anything you eat standing up has no calories. As is only logical, the calories are heavier than air, and consuming them while standing allows them to fall down into your shoes. It is why losing weight in summer is easier, when your shoes are likely to be looser or open toed, and you aren't wearing heavy socks.

But, if you eat whilst sitting down, do not the calories then gravitate shoe-wards when you eventually stand up?

I take the point that calory dispersal is easier if heavy shoes and socks are not being worn.

It's not a theory, it's Scientific Fact. Look, here it is on the Interweb. But it only works if the biscuits get broken accidentally, in the tin. It won't work if you deliberately break the biscuits in your hand.

As can clearly be demonstrated by experience, if you eat while sitting down, the calories accumulate in your bottom.
