tango15 - glad you're back in communication with the world.
Thoughts for you on your visit to your son's resting place.
Good wishes for your move: that will be a big step, and a happy one, I hope.

On the sunny side of the planet: 1.2°C, sunshine, some light cloud, a light frost on lawns and roofs; expecting 8°C. I'm feeling the cold this winter more than I ever have before.

Good morning all, clear lue skies, currently 10C, forecast max 16C.

Morning all. Windy and warm. High temperature warning for Catalunia for next few days. A storm would be useful.

[Rwy in Sight]

May the winds are favourable and the move goes without any loss of property or no damage to t15 houseware.

Afternoon folks. Very cold start -1C forecast for areas around. 3C 08.00 at MUB. Clear skies of course but S. wind. Stayed inside until 12.00. Breakfast took 2 hrs but sitting in the sun through the windows. Just had a stupid hospital information form to fill in for my incarceration.

4, Do you have any medical conditions?' 5, If you answered "Yes" to question 4, please provide more details. (Please, separate your answers with comma).

For goodness sake. No, I'm in for a shampoo and wash of my nether regions. Talk about dull. I just said see records.

Tension here. The flats in London are managed by three Directors of our Company LLC. One has gone off the rails and wants to update the fire alarms (which work perfectly) to the 2025 rules and regs, which are only applicable to new builds. We're talking around £20k costs for nine flats. Needless to say he's being backed by the installers of the new systems. I've done a risk assessment based on the London Fire Brigade regs and reckon we need to spend under £500. An on-line meeting in a few minutes.....Stalin would have known how to deal with him.

Greetings Everybody,

23°c /74% heavy overcast.

When we eventually found the doctor we had a big discussion and a plan.

Transferring to Boroscope Inspection later.

Good morning all, another day of clear blue skies, currently 12C, forecast max 16C

[Pinky the pilot]

Morning All. A Staff RDO today so taking it easy. Rain forecast for late this morning through to evening. Just looked outside and it is already raining, albeit lightly.

Pinky that's 9 mins a launch! What altitude do you release them at or does it vary?

Passenger Flights are launched to 1,500'.(about 6 minutes) Training Flights to 2,000' or 3,000'. (8 or 10 min)If they want to try to find wave lift in the Mountains to the West of the A/F they generally ask for anywhere between 4 to 5,000'. (can be up to 15-20 min.)

The highest Launch I have even done here was to around 10,500' IIRC. The Glide pilot wanted to see if he could contact some High Wave lift but it turned out that by the time we had got high enough the lift had disappeared. At 10,500 or thereabouts I radioed him and told him that I was out of ideas as to where to go and did he have any idea?

His reply was that he was about to ask me the same question! That tow was well over 40 minutes in duration. The poor old Robin DR400 was struggling at that altitude!!

Morning all. Awake from well before 5 with mosquito stings itching on left foot. Couldn't be a*sed to get up and put something on them...

[Ex-Ascot]

Morning folks, Another clear sky but wind drift from E. so a bit warmer only 6C this morning should make 20s. Still staying inside this morning though. We will get out at lunchtime for a beer at the safari camp.

*Ex-A* do you WhatsApp ?

Yes PM sent. We were always against it due to their personal data collection as they are owned by farce book. Had no choice in London though as it was our main connection with the world. Also back here we do video conferencing with The Clinic on it.

Cats fed at 06:30 by her, now Mrs OFSO planting out Canna Lilly on the terrace before the heat arrives.

Good morning all, blue skies, currently 8C, forecast max 15C.

[Karearea]

Murk, overcast, dull, mist, drizzle, rain, et cetera. 8.3°C.

Tomorrow is forecast to be wet

[bob2s]

Here, it is just coming up to 9 a.m., and the best the sun can give is a temperature of 5 °C, so I don't hold out much hope for later.

[OFSO]

06:30 20° and windy. Bed linen on the washing line. Tea being slurped..

Greetings Everybody,

26°c /56% Blue returns.
Guess is for 26°c I expect that will be exceeded.

Hypermarket this morning for a stock of Gluten Free bread.
She seems to have settled on it and compared to others it's cheap.

Must get ears lowered sometime, getting silly.
Keith, long time English practitioner has given in and returned to Sheffield.

I'm guessing that you don't have Turkish barbers' shops on every street in Reino de España Wodders? Still, you can easily nip across the border into Gib for a haircut now
