    You'll be lucky, I think... It's a nice autumnal day, though

    Went to car boot this morning, and 9C, which caught me out a bit, as I'd left the house in just a t shirt. Bit of walking round soon warms you up though. Got a few CDs off a bloke who owned around 20,000 CDs (showed me pics of his shelving), and was just selling off some of his duplicates.

    Even though they took up an entire wall in his house, he did say he'll never do streaming while he's got a hole in his arse (his words). "I'm not paying someone else for permission to play their tunes!" Sounds familiar.
    I just dropped in, to see what condition my condition was in

    T/T: Inspire Monarch, X200 tonearm, Ortofon Quintet Blue. Phono: Project Tube Box CD: Marantz CD6006 (UK Edition); Amp: Musical Fidelity A5 Integrated.
    Speakers: KEF Reference 3, REL T9i subwoofer. Cables: Atlas Equator interconnects, Atlas Hyper 3.0 speaker cables

    T'other system:
    Echo Dot, Arcam A75 integrated, Monitor Audio R852 MD speakers
    A/V:
    LG OLED65 G56LS, Panasonic Blu Ray, Sony a/v amp, MA Radius speakers, REL T9i sub.

    You were right, only got to 15C.

    Started sunny today but clouded over now and set to stay the same. Giving out 18C high again though.

    Forecast to get to 22c with sunny spells this afternoon, which is a bit barmy for October! Cools down from Wednesday though, with heavy rain and a more typical 14c and then hovers around mid to late teens for the next couple of weeks. We still need plenty of rain - the pond in the next door farm must be 2ft lower than it was last year.
