Went gently rambling this afternoon at Forge de Savagnac-Ledrier.
Another great place, especially out of season. River, woodland, interesting stuff to see etc.

Sound up.

There's a part 2 to this.

Just so you know

EU to slap a two-euro ($2.25) handling fee on packages from outside the 27-nation bloc as of November 1 in a bid to curb the influx from China.

The new levy -- coming just weeks before the Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and Christmas season shopping rushes -- will be on top of the EU's three-euro fee on small parcels

Somewhat unexpected weather here this morning.

Very still & In the mist/low cloud again (much like yesterday). Persistant light mizzly drizzly (not enough to show on radar).
Yet the type of rain that gets you really wet (as Peter Kay one said).

[Andy&Viq @RandomAndy2]

Weather Tuesday: round here.

Warmer.

25 October 1951. The first group of four nursing sisters graduated as fully qualified RCAF para-rescue. They participated in rescues only when needed. Nursing regulations required they could no longer serve when married. Pictured: Flying Officer Marian Neily.

Weather Sunday: 11h30 update

The rainy murk is nearly gone.
There's a chance it'll be brighter this afternoon (as long as that trailing frontal cloud clears away before it gets dark!). Better chance in 87.

[Andy&Viq @RandomAndy2]

What did you do with the extra hour this morning?

"Got wet bringing wood into house then moving half a trailerload back from woodyard. Too wet & sloppy for a full load on woodland tracks.

Jkt & trews now hanging over woodburner to dry out."

[Andy&Viq @RandomAndy2]

Can I just say that I utterly despise any form of scent applied to stuff in a washing machine.

Stop calling it softener.
It's not.
It stinks awful, all of it.
