Cold, cold, and a cold.

1.3 degrees C was the record for the minimum temperature so far this Autumn. As that's right beside the South side of the house. No doubt there was a slight frost whilst I was snoozing.

Wasn't expecting it to be so cold, so it was too late to turn on the (night storage) radiators by the time I surfaced. House is darned cold... may even have to light the fire!

Throat sore and swollen; nose partially blocked, aside from a near constant drip; feeling miserable; and shivery (hardly surprising). Was fine yesterday, but there have been numerous casualties at work recently. Forget going to a GP, "You have a virus. Drink plenty fluids; a few basic pain killers (i.e. Paracetamol) for a few days; and take things easy..." You know the score.

No Lemsips (or similar) about, and the lemon that was in the fridge, had a leather-like look and feel to the skin. Brown inside too. Homemade Orange-sip instead.

Did manage to vacuum the house; cut the grass; and start sorting out for a mega back-blipping session. No way will that happen today. Not awake enough to start scanning the latest processed film(s). At least it wasn't a total lost day

Early night me thinks...
