Today may have started with full sunshine, but it was a cold morning with the temperature around 8° C. By now the sunshine should be reduced to sunny spells, but it looks like the sunshine might last a bit longer. If we are really lucky there won't be the 2 hour gap in the sunny spells mid afternoon. Sadly the sunny spells may not raise the temperature higher than 15° C today. The temperature will dip tonight, but some warm winds will warm things up a bit at 3am. Tomorrow could start at 10° C, but the sunny spells may not start until 11am again, and even then will be a bit sparse. That will keep the temperature down to 17° C - which is admittedly more than today, but may still feel a little cool when there is no sunshine. Things look better for Sunday, and on Monday I expect I will be wearing shorts !

   Yesterday was a typical Thursday - good in parts, and not good at all at other times. The latter particularly so when it comes to the facts about what I ended up eating - a fact I knew would happen, and I did try and get a grip on it, and failed badly according to my health records. Yesterday is more fully described, along with notes about my sleep, and what a disaster it is this morning (in term of my health), and it all can be read in my complete archived page for today.

  Today has started off dry, and about 9° C. It seems to be light grey outside now, but if the forecast is correct we could see sunny spells from 11am. They should help take the afternoon temperature up to 16° C. It will be dry all day, and so should tomorrow. There could be sunny spells almost all day tomorrow, but the afternoon temperature may only rise to 15° C.

   I am unsure whether to call yesterday a good day, or something closer to average - what ever that is. Of course there were also some bad bits, and they tended to happen in the late afternoon/early evening. As usual they mostly involved food. One big plus was a couple of trains I saw, but I'll describe those a bit further down the page. All that can be described of my day, night, and also this morning, can be read in my complete archived page for today.

  Today has started off very wet after rain through the night, and light rain may continue until midday. It seems to have stopped raining for the moment (as I type this at 8:19am), but the grim grey clouds promise much more rain yet. It is currently about 10° C, and the forecast says the best we can hope for today will be just 12° C. The last few hours of daylight may feature some sunny spells. Most of tomorrow may be dull, but there could still be a lot of sunny spells, and maybe even a full hour of sunshine. The temperature may reach 16° C.

   Yesterday was generally a good day, but it was also a very tiring day. To some extent it was a good sort of tiring...maybe. It involved fresh air, and exercise....and some rather interesting eating. Eating that didn't seem wise at the time, but maybe it was. It even produced a few pictures to show today, and 3,095 words to describe my day, night, and this morning, and it can all be seen and read in my complete archived page for today.

  The sky may have stayed cloudy longer than forecast last night because this morning started at closer to 10° C, and it is already 11° C as I type this. The sun is shining, as per the forecast, and although full sunshine will/may give way to just sunny spells before the morning is over, it should remain bright and cheerful, and the temperature should reach 17° C. Rain could start to fall at 2am tomorrow, and by morning could be quite heavy. It may slacken off by mid morning, and the last of the rain could fall around midday. The afternoon will be dry but still dull, and it may be no more than a chilly 13° C.

   Yesterday was a day that started with some appalling health measurements, and I had to steel myself to take special precautions. Today it seems most of what I did worked, but more about that later. I seemed to take my time writing yesterday's piece, and that was a good distraction. Most of my day and night, including a brief note about a dream, plus notes about this morning, can all be read in my complete archived page for today.

  The best thing that can be said about today's weather is that it started at about 10° C, and as I write this it is 15° C. There is no sunshine to warm things up further, but it may be that by mid afternoon it could be higher than the 16° C forecast - possibly by a couple of degrees. I have no idea why the BBC includes rays of sunshine around a black cloud with rain leaking from it, but the Met Office forecast cuts straight to the bone and just shows dark grey clouds for the afternoon. They only show light rain, and no thunderstorms are shown. Maybe if the afternoon warms up enough to start feeling muggy there could be a crack of thunder, but probably not. Tomorrow could feature a lot of sunshine or sunny spells, and the temperature could peak at 18° C. That could be the day to do stuff !

   Yesterday was not really a good day, or you could say the consequences of yesterday were not good ! The grey start to the day dampened any enthusiasm to do more than the minimum. It might, but probably wasn't, all to blame for some bad eating choices. My day, and the mistakes made, are described along with notes about my sleep, my dreams, and also this morning, in my complete archived page for today.

  The weather is not looking good now, and probably will seem bad all day. I have seen no sign of any sunshine peeping through the grey clouds, and it seems unlikely there will be later. The Met Office version of the forecast shows dark grey clouds from 1pm, and light rain for 5 and 6pm. Both forecasters agrees that the day started at about 6° C, and that this afternoon will see 14° C. Tomorrow may be a bit warmer, 16° C in the afternoon, but without much sunshine, and there is a fair chance there will be light rain all afternoon.

   Yesterday was another of those days when I didn't feel like doing much. However I did do one useful thing, and somehow I also managed to control my eating/sugar intake despite lots of temptations. How I managed that is mostly a mystery, but a few clues emerge in the rest of my narrative. I seemed to have written a fair bit about not much, and padded it out with a few pictures. It is all described, alonge with my night and this morning in my complete archived page for today.

  This morning has started at 11° C, which is pretty good. There sky is very cloudy, but it still seems fairly bright, and despite the forecast not showing it, we have had a couple of short sunny spells. The forecast sunny spells should start at 11am, and from 3pm we should/might get full sunshine until sunset. After the almost warm start, and the full sunshine, the highest temperature today, for one hour at 3pm, may only be 15° C. I suspect the modestly strong wind today is blowing in cold air, and generally making it feel cold. The headline features for tomorrow are currently shown as light rain and and gentle breeze, but light rain and drizzle is only shown for 8am to 10am. The rest of the day may be dry, but it will still be dull until some possible sunny spells from 6pm to sunset. The highest temperature will be just 14° C,

   Yesterday was one of those days when I didn't feel like doing much. In fact I hardly did anything. Most of me was probably OK, but all the lost sleep the night before left it's mark - a mark that might have been ignored if it was an exciting day, but it wasn't. I have written as much as I can remember about yesterday, how I slept last night, and notes about this morning in my complete archived page for today.

  The sun may be a little hazy as I write this, but it has been shining non stop for a couple of hours (or so I think). 10° C was a fair start to the day, but it may only rise to 16° C again in the early afternoon, and possibly more if we get longer periods of sunshine instead of just sunny spells. By 6pm it all goes wrong ! It will start to drizzle, and then a few hours later it will turn to light rain. That light rain will continue through the night, but it should be dry by 6am tomorrow. Tomorrow could be grey until 1pm when me might get some sunny spells. That will only warm the day up to just 14° C, and like today, the breeze may be strong enough to make it feel a lot cooler.

   Yesterday left some consequences for today, but most of the day could be considered to be fairly good. The badness actually started late evening, although the foundation for it started late afternoon. On the other hand I might have it all wrong, and it was more like "just one of those things". My day, my night, a slightly sexy dream, and notes about this morning, can all be read in my complete archived page for today.

  It is a very chilly start to today, just 7° C, but it is gloriously sunny. If the forecast is correct the non stop sunshine will give way to sunny spells at midday. The afternoon high should be 16° C, and the wind looks like it will be light enough to not make it feel cooler. Tonight may not be as cold as last night, and the day should start with a single hour of sunshine. After that there should be sunny spells for the rest of the day. The temperature may touch 17° C for a single hour, but stronger winds may make it feel cooler.

   Yesterday was a fairly good day, or at least good in parts, and maybe some parts must have been very good. I guess that sounds unusually positive, but I will find some negatives things to say about yesterday as well. The biggest negative was the cold wind. My day is described along with some notes about last night (and a dream) and notes about my health and plans for today, all in my complete archived page for today.

  There seems to be more cloud than forecast, and so far the forecast sunny spells have been very sparse. It doesn't help that towards the east, where the sun is, there are some quite large grey clouds. Hopefully the clouds will thin enough to give the promised full sunshine later on. Even with full sunshine from midday, if we actually get it it, the temperature may only rise to a slightly cool 15° C. It seems like we could get quite a cool, maybe even cold night. Tomorrow is forecast to start at just 6° C, but the day should be bright and sunny enough to raise the temperature to 16° C.

   Yesterday was another one of those days which seemed half OK, but I have little to show for it. I guess I did more than I predicted I would do at the end of yesterday's writing, but there was still a lot of empty day with nothing to show for it. Somehow I seemed to control my eating though. My day, despite the details being rather thin, is described along with notes about my night, and this morning, in my complete archived page for today.

  I nearly made the error of saying the rain had stopped because I couldn't see it through the net curtains, but then I saw all the ripples of falling rain in a big puddle across the road. It seems the rain that started last night continues, but the forecast says it should be dry, but dull by 9am. The rain may start again at 3pm, and continue until 8pm.  It is just a bit over 10° C now, but this afternoon, at 3pm, in the middle of the rain, it could be a quite warm 19° C. It looks like it could be a dry night. Tomorrow may feature a lot of sunny spells, and some hours may feature non stop sunshine. It may be a slightly windy day, and that could hold tomorrow down to a maximum of just 14° C.

   Yesterday was one of those days which seemed half OK, but nothing really happened. In the whole day I only did two things of any significance - provided I omit eating. I did and didn't eat too much, or maybe I didn't eat a great deal, but what I ate may not have been the healthiest options. My day is described, and some notes about my night and this morning included, in my complete archived page for today.

  It is a lovely morning - clear blue sky, and bright sunshine. It is hard to believe that by 2pm the sky will be full of grey clouds, but it may well be true. This afternoon may only see 15° C. It may not be until 11pm before any rain falls. There could be some quite heavy rain in the early hours of tomorrow morning. After sunrise tomorrow there may be quite a few light showers, and even some sunny spells mid afternoon. The temperature may reach 17° C.

   Yesterday was a good day in some ways, and bad in others. It was a mixed blessing that I didn't get out to do any exercise. Not doing it felt good, but it would have felt good to continue the good work from the day before. Oh well, at least the day featured booze, and that was a mixed blessing too. The complete account of my day (or at least the less boring bits), plus notes about my night and this morning, can be read in my complete archived page for today.

  Today we return to probably what is closer to typical weather for almost mid April. This morning started off almost warm at 12° C, but the predicted sunny spells seem to feature more cloud than sunshine (or maybe I am basing this on a sample of only a single hour). The temperature should warm up to 16° C, but from 2pm there could be April showers. I seem to think the amount of time it will rain has changed in every iteration of the forecast. That shown above might be more, or less, than reality. It is possible that tomorrow may be dry, and there could even be some non stop sunshine in the morning, but that may finish as early as 10am. From then on there will be sunny spells. Tomorrow may still reach 16° C.

   Yesterday was a good, but very tiring day. It was good because I managed to get out in the sunshine, although thatw as spoiled when instead of non stop strong sunshine, there was some times in the afternoon when thin clouds dimmed the sun to give almost hazy views. There are loads of photos to illustrate my account of yesterday, and I also have notes about my night (not good), and this morning, in my complete archived page for today.

  Today is forecast to be the last of the recent string of warm sunny days. The day has started at 8 or 9° C, with bright sunshine from a partly clear sky. There is a lot of thin cloud visible at the moment, but it has not stopped the bright sunshine. That cloud should fade way, and this afternoon should feature strong sunshine that will take the temperature back up to 21° C. After sunset the cloud will be back, and it will thicken enough for some light rain from 11pm. The rain may not finish until 4am this morning, but most of tomorrow should be dry. Sunshine will be in short supply, and only about half the daylight hours will feature sunny spells. The temperature should still climb to 16° C, and that should feel fairly OK.

   Yesterday was quite a successful day for the most important thing, but it was a shame to not go out and frolic in the hot sunshine. Explanations for all these things will be forthcoming, further down the page. Mention will also be made of some things that were less successful. My day is described, along with notes about my sleep, and notes about this morning, in my complete archived page for today.

  The forecast promises that today will be the warmest day of the year so far. It may have started at 8° C, but the sky is blue, and the sun is shining. It should get the temperature up to 21° C this afternoon. Tomorrow may be very similar, except only 20° C is forecast, but that is still nice and warm. At 11pm there could be the first hint that the weather is changing for the worse. Drizzle is expected.

   Yesterday was quite a good day, not perfect, but pleasant enough. It was certainly good enough to make today start off as a bit of a disaster, and the reasons for that mostly revolve around booze ! The alcohol itself did little harm, but it did induce me to make some unwise decisions. Yesterday's disaster, and some good bits, my terrible night, and the consequences of that this morning, is all described in my complete archived page for today.

  It is a very grey morning again, although I think the starting temperature was closer to 7° C than the forecast 5° C, Maybe we will start seeing the sun break through the clouds around midday, and from 4pm we may see full on sunshine until sunset. The afternoon should warm up to 16° C. Tomorrow could see the very welcome return to all day sunshine, and the temperature should/could reach a very warm 21° C. The day after could be similar, but from Sunday onwards it will be cold, dull and wet again.

   Yesterday could have been another very depressing day, but it was only mildly depressing. There were a few good things, and I did one job that I had been putting off for ages. That rather pleased me, but with that done I didn't do much at all. The mid afternoon sunshine was quite cheery, but sort of wasted. My day, such as it was, plus my uneventful night, and my usual notes about this morning, can all be read in my complete archived page for today.

  Once again the forecast predicted a 4° C start to the day, but clouds had gathered during the night, and that kept the temperature up, although only by just over a single degree. The clouds meant there was no sunshine at daybreak, and it was at least an hour two before some hazy sunshine seeped through the clouds. Even now it looks very cloudy, but the occasional sunshine is stronger. Maybe by 1pm (now) 2pm we will have full sunshine back, and by 3pm the temperature should reach 15° C. More cloud tonight may mean a 6° C start to tomorrow. It is looking like it will be a very grey morning, but the sun should break through in time to warm the afternoon up to 17° C, but it may not reach that until 5pm.

   Yesterday was not a good day. It seemed like the morning lasted a long time, because I didn't do anything, and that was because I was effectively constipated. I was not that uncomfortable, but I didn't want to risk that situation changing if I went out. Another day of solitary confinement. I have tried to describe some of yesterday's bland day, but I've probably said more about my dreams, and this morning in my complete archived page for today.

  Today will just be a 1° warmer day than yesterday, and with possibly lighter winds it might feel even feel warmer. This afternoon, in the middle of a day of non stop sunshine, should see the temperature reach 15° C for maybe 5 hours. Some clouds tomorrow morning may mean only sunny spells, but tomorrow afternoon should see non stop sunshine, and the temperature reaching 15° C again. The breeze may be a tiny bit stronger tomorrow.

  I knew that what I did yesterday would have consequences today. Fortunately those consequences were not as bad as I feared. What I did, and some of the consequences will become apparent in the rest of today's electronic diary (what you are reading now). It is all sort of described in my complete archived page for today, and which also includes notes about my sleep, and dreams, and about this morning.

  This morning, even at 7am, is was closer to 4° C than the 5° C forecast. It is starting to warm up now, and another day of non stop sunshine should see the temperature reach 14° C for most of the afternoon. It will be dry all day, and today may feel warmer thanks to less wind. It will be another cold night, and tomorrow morning may start only a couple of degrees more then needed for a frosty start. Once again, non stop sunshine all day long, and maybe a very slightly lighter breeze, could see the temperature rise to 16° C (but just for a single hour).

  I think I liked yesterday. I had thought about going shopping because I did need a few bits, but instead I went for a walk in the sunshine. The best bit was that I think I detected some improvement in my walking. It tends to be quite variable, and maybe it meant nothing. I have written a lot about yesterday, and included a lot of pictures, plus I seem to have described a few dreams and how I slept, plus the usual notes about the morning in my complete archived page for today.

  Today is forecast to be a bit cooler than yesterday. The wind speed and direction seem to be the same as yesterday, so I guess the wind will be a lot cooler than yesterday. The afternoon temperature should reach 14° C, and hopefully that will feel nice when outside. The strong sunshine should warm my front rooms up regardless of the wind outside. Tomorrow may start cooler at just 5° C, but the afternoon should be a bit warmer at 15° C after another day of (possibly) non stop, strong sunshine.

  Yesterday was a curious sort of day. I didn't seem to feel anything like as bad as the day before, but I still found I was lacking enthusiasm, and perhaps to a lesser extent, energy too. However it was a day when some useful experiments took place. I have described all I can remember about yesterday, plus last night, and added some notes about this morning, in my complete archived page for today.

  This morning started cooler than yesterday. It was around 7° C at daybreak, and it looks like the sun doesn't have the strength yet to warm things up like yesterday. Despite all day sunshine (probably) the afternoon temperature will only reach 17° C. The wind may be a bit stronger today, and that will mean it will feel cooler still. It should still (hopefully) be ideal t-shirt weather. It looks like it will cool down quite fast tonight, and tomorrow may start at just 7° C again (and the forecast claims the wind will make that feel more like a very chilly 5° C). Once again there should be full sunshine all day, and the afternoon may be no more than 13° C, except 3pm which might reach 14° C.

  I'm not sure how to describe yesterday, or more specifically me yesterday. I've considered saying depressed, and I've considered saying tired, but I think listlessness is closer, but a mix of all three, each boosting the others, probably comes closer to the truth. All is described, as best I can, about yesterday, plus the usual notes about my night, and this morning, in my complete archived page for today.

  Today could reach 20° C (or 21° C according to The Met Office forecast). Like yesterday, the headline says "a moderate breeze", but at times it felt a bit more than "moderate". Hopefully it is not so unmoderate to steal too much warmth from the glorious sunshine today. Tomorrow should feature bright sunshine all day long again, but the temperature may only rise to 17° C. Once again there will be "a moderate breeze".

  Yesterday was generally quite a good day, but like most things, it was not perfect. There were a few negative things, but they can mostly be blamed on going shopping, and then booze. Having said that, I did not get very drunk during (before or after) the afternoon boozing session. The good and the band, and maybe the trivial too, of my day, night, and this morning, are all described in my complete archived page for today.

  The wind may be a bit lighter today, and that may allow the forecast 17° C actually feel closer to 17° C. Once again it should be very sunny, and of course dry. Even the night may not get that cold. Tomorrow the wind may shave off a degree or two, but it could be a very warm day. The headline may show 20° C, but the hour by hour forecast only shows a maximum of 19° C, but most of the afternoon should be this warm, and it may feel almost hot when out of the wind.  We could have another 7 days of good weather after tomorrow, although tomorrow should be hotter than any of those next 7 days.

  To my delight, yesterday was a pretty good day, or at least the results this morning say it was.  That's not to say there weren't a few negative things about yesterday. Those things will be revealed in due course, and it might turn out there was actually only one of them. I have described my day as best I can, and even attempted to describe a dream last night, there are the usual notes about my morning, in my complete archived page for today.

  Today looks like the wind will dominate the day more than yesterday. It will be sunny all day again, and behind glass (for instance) it should feel very warm, but out in the wind the forecast 14° C could feel chilly. There should be slightly lighter winds tomorrow, and they will be blowing in warmer air. With another day of non stop sunshine the temperature could reach a rather warm feeling 17° C. The day after tomorrow could see the temperature briefly touch 19° C.

  I didn't expect it, but there was a lot of good stuff about yesterday, and only a little bit of bad stuff. That was mainly at bedtime, but just for a change it was not heartburn or related pains. Sometimes it was little things that made yesterday a good day. My good day, and my fairly good night, and pretty good morning, are all described in my complete archived page for today.

  Today will be just as sunny as yesterday, and maybe more if the sky stays clear all day, but the wind from the east will make it a cooler day. Just 13° C is predicted, but it should still look really nice. Tomorrow should be another sunny day, but despite the wind, it could be a degree or two warmer.

  Yesterday started out really awful. A combination of almost no sleep, and bad health readings were not a good start, and not a good recipe for the rest of the day. Fortunately I did the right things with regard to my weight and blood glucose, and my blood pressure seemed to correct itself by the end of the day. I describe my day, a good sleep, and a fair start to this morning in my complete archived page for today.
