It was raining when I came out of the opticians again, but it was just a shower, and the sun shone through before I got to the end of the High St.

A dark, dry, cold windy day, the sort that's pleasant before Christmas.

Took the car for a spin at 6am. Coming back, from Peachow Hill I could see the full moon setting huge and red over the town.

At 11am I saw rain was coming, so had my post-early-lunch coffee and hurried off to work by 12.45. The rain started when I was 2 minutes from the office.

Made fantastic tomato/aubergine/chickpea ragout for early lunch - just the thing for cold weather.

Wrote a parser for the pre-diary weather file.

Finished the 72-73 weather, so I now have complete coverage from the earliest date that my earliest memory can come from.

Harvested more apples - still plenty left. The birds are pecking the ones higher up, but leaving the lower ones for me.

Carried on compiling the 1972 weather synopses, the ones with which I'm filling the Feb 1972- May 1973 gap. Got another 4 months to do.

Into town at 8.20 because I saw rain forecast for 10 am.

Rain duly started when I was still in Sainsburys. I got a bit wet walking home, but I was still pleased with myself for going in early. If I hadn't, I'd've got wet on my way into town.

Lib Dems came round canvassing. Told them how impressed I was that they were out in the pouring rain.
