Cool, hot, cool, hot nights. Of course some (hello, Matt) will not call a night at 17°C hot but for me everything above 15°C at night is too hot for comfort. The rest of the day was nice. Cloudy but not grey.

I spent most of the day losing time checking the results of the correction program that ran in Belgium. The remote connection is however very temperamental, sometimes I get nice and reasonably fast responses but sometimes I have to wait for minutes (plural) between commands. Trying to scroll down trough a report that way is really a concentration breaker, By the time I reach the bottom I sometimes forgot what I was looking for.
It takes so much time that I don't do any other real work.

And for some reason I don't get any internet connection in the afternoon. That is no surfing and no external mail.

 

Home, quite late, I went to help my brother with the new greenhouse. He is working on the foundations and he needed to get a few steel bars in the garden. They are not too heavy but to reach the garden they must pass trough the house and being about 5m long that is rather difficult.
Passing trough the hall, up the stair, trough the widows and then the acrobatic part over the roof of the bathroom. For that part one man, me, has to balance the bar, holding only one end while keeping the other off the roof while the other man, Peter, goes into the garden climbs up a small ladder reaching up to get a grip, swing the side the first man releases to the side and down. As I said each bar weighs about 20Kg which is not too much to carry but holding only one end makes it feel much heavier, especially when the other end must be maneuvered carefully.

A welcome change after sitting on my lazy ass behind a screen all day :-)

Adios
