The Coffee House

[snowbear]

The Public Safety GIS summit is over. Attendance was down a third ir so, many regular participants having been deployed to NC. Waiting for the crowd to show up for the social at 16 Bit Bar and Arcade.




I might try this later.

Bloody hell, daylight savings starts tomorrow & i only just got used to the last time change. Apart from that it's been a sunny morning but that's gonna be changing very soon to wet weather.

 

[snowbear]

Finally home. It was a nice flight, though crowded.

And, yep, I did the steel slide thing. Quite sober, too.

Some nice bowls! Are you going to seal them for use with liquids, or are they for candies or biscuits?

Daylight savings time change has made a mess of my routines!! It's bloody horrible. I wonder if the bunny's have the same thoughts???

A beef roast for lunch with a tone of different vegetables, baked spud, carrot and pumpkin with the skin left on. Freshly picked honey snap & snow peas form the garden, some steamed silver beet with minced garlic and fresh lemon juice.

Gonna have a nap, due to daylight savings jetlag.

Read an article yesterday, they say with there studies they found there were no adverse effects health wise to time change & it's basically just jetlag.

Then why does my jetlag last for many bloody weeks? Hmm.

Ps. Lunch was perfect...

Lunch sounded delish! Time change is pointless in the 21st Century, but old traditions and habits die hard. They'll probably still do it even when we finally break free from the bonds of Earth and are travelling the Universe.

@Original katomi awesome, I was in a turning group for awhile, something very satisfying about turning.

@Digger... we fall back on Nov 3rd at 2am.

In other news hope our FL TPF members and their families are in safe locations.

I hate the time change. The pups get confused on meal time and bed time.

Lucky you for finding a hobby with a purpose...

Thinking of all of our TPF members in the path of Hurricane Milton. Please take care and stay safe. And remember, no photo is worth getting hurt.

My sister lives in central Florida, well south of Tampa, but with a storm the size of Milton, it's hard to take comfort in that. Helene barely grazed her, so she's fortunate in that regard. We've chatted a bit but apparently everyone in the family, as well as everyone else she knows, has been checking in and it's been grating on her nerves. She says they're as ready as they can be, and just wants to be on the other side of it.
