STEADY SHOWERS ALL DAY AND I KNOW WHY.

Chris Evans | 15:37 UK time, Thursday, 20 September 2007

Been steeped in revision all day again !

Meteorology and lots of it. I don't know ! I just about get me head around katabatic and anabatic air flows and then they throw adiabatic lapse rate at me, how come that's 1 degree c., quicker per thousand feet than what we are told is the standard cooling rate for air which is around 1.98 degrees c. per thousand feet ? and don't even start me on the Coriolis effect. Now sea breeze i get, what with wamer more stable air coming in off the water to replace the rising re radiated air shooting up from the land but clouds, clouds, bloody clouds, there may be only four types but how many variations exist within those ? Even the book says sometimes it's not quite sure what's going on !

So a much deserved treet was served up at lunch... fish finger sandwiches, they were bloomin' lovely and not just cheap crappy ones that fall apart when you try to separate them from the baking tray, these were big boys sent in to is by No Catch fish fingers... sustainable and scrumptious, they were almighty alrighty with a crust to die for and huge chunks of lovely fish inside. And because we're grown up we had peas and beans ! Cos' we can.

Now, beneath a pretty low layer of stratocumulus London s struggling to see the funny side of a Thursday afternoon, still the cold front should be through soon unless we're experiencing a col with another one on the way, ho hum.

    Aaaaah Chris,
    Brings back happy memories of when I was a younger moose, learning all this stuff without having to take out a huge loan to fund it, 4 hours of lectures a week and meeting Mrs M...

    Back to reality, fish finger sandwiches. Yes. Lived on them for a month once. Ran out of cash but had some fish fingers in the freezer...probably not the most nutritionally balanced of months but character building.

    Wow fish finger sandwiches. I don't really like fish but sometimes just fancy fish fingers with ketchup and mayo, yumyum!

    Gingembre- was that you in a people carrier! WE went into HMV and I was thinking 'am I gonna see anyone I know?' And ofcourse I did, someone who I worked at Jarrolds with so the rumour mill as already started no doubt.

    Well, that was painless. The very nice Boiler Man has been and gone. The problem was probably trapped air in the pipes! My heating system had 'wind' so it seems!

    The best bit is he didn't charge a penny, we had an engineer from the same company out three weeks ago and the repairs cost £320 so I was hoping that this problem was related to the previous.

    We now have hot water again, and I can have a hot and not lukewarm bath again Hooray!!!!

    Missy, going out for dinner at a friends later, hope to find out how your coffee date went when I get back. Hope he wasn't a numbnut skinny latte just as Clodagh said! x

    I have lots of venom to spew about motorways, having just spent the last three hours on one particular orbital one, but we all know about that, and easing into a nice glass of cheeky sauvignon blanc is a far more relaxing way of venting one's frustrations.

    So I'll go and do that instead.

    Bonjour mon petit fleurs

    I love days that take an unexpected twist. MrsW, the kiddies and me were slumped on the sofa after a day of shopping (far too much purchased too!) and my phone went off.

    "Hello mate, if you can get to Spurs tonight I have a free ticket for you" was the opening line from my (now favourite) cousin. "Actually I'll meet you asap at stansted services if you want" was his second.

    So off I shot, and what a great night, 6 goals for the lilywhites, JD off the bench with 2 glorious finishes and sitting with one of the funniest people I know (my cousin). Sorry to crow, but we've been awful so far this season and I don't get the chance to get to many games lately.

    missy - I do drive a people carrier type family car, depends where n when you saw me? Glad it went well, and bravo for puckering up.

    Hi to all you returning bloggers, good to see you back. HL and Bingo, on top form as usual.

    Off to have a haircut later today, then to Ibiza tomorrow. Can't wait. Will send you all a postcard.

    Oh, Chris...I'm starting a course (you may remember from AGES ago, or not obviously, you are a very busy man after all)...it finally(?) begins on 28th October, but it is all about synapse and relapse...but all relates to general stability...so almost the same...BUT one of our friends did a charidee sky dive last Sunday (out of a real aeroplane and everything!)...she text me a picture of her doing 120mph in a generally downward direction whilst strapped to a rather gorgeous gentleman...we could call it 'alibatic' with an aerobatic collapse at the end...and then spent the rest of the day drinking champers with him. There are worse ways to spend a Sunday!

    To be honest, I've not done at all well lately. Have been missing the show an awful lot, and then, we had to go and pay our rent (for the Sett) last eve, so I've missed the lovely Clodagh's gobsmackers too! Flipping heck. (Other expletives available)

    ...and oh lawks. The Land of the Faraway Tree. Last time I was on hols with my mum (and am away with her again on Weds hoorah it really doesn't seem like a year ago...) there was a girl reading the omnibus, and she leant it to me! Ooda thortit. Lying on a beach, at my age, reading Enid Blyton. And smoking Marlb0r0. And drinking gin. How decadent.

    Other news.

    Bingo. Of COURSE I've been wrockin! I wrocked myself into oblivion on the evening of the 7th Sept, then proceeded to carry on until about 5am on the Sunday morning when I gave up the ghost on my mates sofa...Couldn't let the side down now could I?

    Good Morning,

    Gingembre, I was at a friends for dinner last night and her husband was there at White Hart Lane too. He is Cypriot but stayed loyal to Spurs! When he got back he told me how much he pays for his season ticket, blimey you would really have to love football to pay that!

    Dinner was lovely last night, haven't meet up with my loopy mate for ages. We used to work together and had lots to catch up with.

    My excitement over the fixed boiler was short lived by the way. The engineer tested the central heating and left it on. Now it won't go off. It's like being at the Costa Del Sol at home at the moment. You walk in through the front door and it's like stepping off the blooming airplane when you go on holiday. Just about to phone the engineer and get him back!

    Glad that you enjoyed your date Missy.

    Hi all,

    Missy - so glad date went well, I can't remember the last time I went on a date, it must have been nearly 15 years ago! There's nothing quite like that feeling when you first like someone is there?

    Chris - saw you playing the piano on the TV last night, I thought "Oh there's Chris, i must text him and tell him I've seen him", and then I remembered I don't actually know you! Sorry if that sounds a bit stawkerish, i think it says a lot about the way you write on here.

    I've been baking all morning as we're going to my nannie's tomorrow to celebrate my mum's birthday which is today. I always try to take lots of goodies with me so my nan doesn't have to do anything (she's 81 and I think it's time for her to put her feet up). The problem is I'm behind on my paperwork now, so think i might have to miss Neighbours and Doctors this afternoon to get on top of it (what a sad case I am - I've got a bit of a thing for Doctors Nick and Jimmy I'm afraid!).

    Debbie - my sympathies with the Boiler Man situation. Over the recent Bank Hol weekend we didn't have any hot water from the Wednesday evening until the following Tuesday morning. I'm only glad the weather wasn't that good ....... anyhoo, hopefully the house will be less like the tropics very soon!!

    And fish finger sarnies .... oh yes please! As a child I used to put a couple of fish fingers, plus beans, plus chips onto one slice of fresh white bread, add ketchup liberally, and then put another slice of bread on the top. Ooh, and then the butter would melt and ............. no wonder I've never looked like Twiggy!

    Enid Blyton - I've got all the Famous Five books, the 'Mystery of' series, and some very old hardback books of hers that my aunt left me - they have been well read over the years and I still read them now. The biography of her life, written by her daughter, makes interesting reading too.

    Hello again,

    Don't want to be here at work today.

    Just been on the phone to mobile phone company as they have been overcharging me so getting a refund, brilliant news there.

    The boiler people won't talk to me, keep telling me to phone back shortly. Meanwhile the heating is pumping through my house. Not impressed.

    Now my boss has just called to make sure I'm here as delivery people left him a message saying there no one was picking up the phone here. Turns out that he gave them the wrong number!!!!

    Amanda, hope that you had a good birthday. You reminded me that two years ago in a major supermarket they had started this 'Think 21' scheme when it came to selling alcohol. I was doing a big shop and was trying to buy a bottle of wine and the cashier refused to sell it to me.

    Then she called over the supervisor as I insisted that I speak to someone, the supervisor agreed that she wasn't sure that I was over 21. I was 32 years old!!! Unbelievable. I was delighted of course but I didn't get my bottle of wine.

    Better get on with some work now I suppose. Hope you are all having a good day.

    Hi Hazel, not a stupid question at all. I have been known to do stupid things!

    Thermostat is down to zero at the moment and the heating itself is off if you know what I mean. No lights on the box on the wall. Not very technical I know but that's the best that I can explain it. Mr Debbie has gone home now and has disconnected the boiler. We have an african grey parrot at home and he is probably the happiest he has ever been right now!

    When I tried to call this man again he was so rude that I called Mr Debbie and asked him to try. He was rude to him too. He said it couldn't possible be anything that the engineer did yesterday. How does he know, he didn't even leave a job sheet? Not looking good is it?

    Checked out reviews on this company and the last post was from a gentleman that had to take them to the small claims court.

    Well if life was easy it would be dull wouldn't it.

    Hi Chris

    Only just started reading your blog, but have been listening to the show for ages and love it, makes driving a pleasure!!

    Love the blog too. However, you lost me on this one, kept with it though case something interesting came up and then fish finger sandwiches - good man and then peas and beans can't get much better than that.

    Got so excited it prompted me to comment
    (never done that before!)

    Starving going to find me some fish fingers!

    Debbie - tell the boiler people that you'll forward your gas bill to them when it arrives!

    Hope you get yer plumbing sorted soon.

    Glad you're getting some money back from your mobile phone company - that's a miracle in itself! It's also worth ringing the credit card companies and asking them if they can either reduce or freeze the interest on your cards ..... I've done this before and it really helps to reduce the outstanding amount.

    Anyway, I'm glad you are sounding happier and good luck

    Thanks Jillygoat, we checked out the Money Expert website and the advice there was to move the balance from existing cards to a 0% interest card. We plan to do that but still make the payments that we have been so far to clear it quicker. Mr Debbie seems quite happy with that idea. I read that if you reduce payments or freeze interest on credit cards then it can affect your credit rating in the future.

    I hope that we are doing the right thing, you can only try....

    Sorry Prof Plum, I did look at the clip and I felt so hot and bothered at Big Johnny doing his press ups I thought I was back at home. In fact before the screen went back I even wondered if Big Johnny may turn out to be our one and own Mr Saunders!!!

    Loved that show, fantastic stuff.

    I have been here so much today, it terrible isn't here. Sorry, going home in an hour promise!

    I can't get youtube. I shall have to take it as read...but Plumster, I trust you to have found a gem! You've also made me remember one lovely time too...bless yer gawjusness!

    ...and now I fancy a Mojito, and being a qualified Mixologist amongst my many disguises, I know how to make a truly delish cocktail with just enuff mintage...

    Y'see Debbie, years ago we moved the furniture about in the living room, and the heating didn't come on. We had the whole system in 1,000,000 bits before we realised the thermostat was nice and snug above where we'd put one of the lamps...

    Bingo, bingo bop bop
