My Electronic Diary For Febuary 2026



Tuesday 10th February 2026
 08:39 GMT

  What I said about the day before yesterday is exactly what I will say about yesterday - Yesterday started with the road outside looking wet, but there was no rain until about 6pm, and that was only light rain. The afternoon temperature was 11° C.
 BBC_weather
                    forecast
  There were a few times when the sun came out, or at least half came out, but yesterday was another rather wet day. Almost non stop light rain all day long according to the forecast. If today is anything like yesterday, then we could get some hours that are mostly dry. The afternoon should peak at 12° C, and in sunshine that could be almost short sleeve weather. Tomorrow could see a brief blip to 13° C at 2pm, but like most days this month, there will be light rain from dawn to dusk.

  Yesterday was quite a good day for a variety of reasons. Expecting deliveries can be a bit of a bore, and means that there is a lot I can't do because I have to keep an ear out for the doorbell. However once the deliveries arrive everything is great, and it wasn't just getting my deliveries that made yesterday good ! There is more about my day to be reading in my complete archived page for today.

  Yesterday started with the road outside looking wet, but there was no rain until about 6pm, and that was only light rain. The afternoon temperature was 11° C.
 BBC_weather
                    forecast
  It looks like there was rain during the night because the road looks wet again. It is currently about 8° C, and the afternoon should reach 11° C. Like yesterday the first rain today could start at 6pm, and although the clouds are shown as black, only light rain is expected to fall.  The rain, still staying very light, is forecast to continue through the night, and with a few dry hours, through most of tomorrow. Tomorrow afternoon could see 12° C.

  Yesterday had it's ups and downs. I did get to Tesco, and that was good. The afternoon beer tasting session was not good. Inn the middle I had a snooze or two, and dared to eat some forbidden (while I am not taking Mounjaro) foods - and I almost got away with it. The good and the bad, plus other stuff is all described in my complete archived page for today.

  There was light rain from early morning until about 7pm yesterday. There were a few times in the lateb morning when it seemed to brighten up, but it didn't look like the very light rain actually stopped. From midday to 8pm the temperature was forecast to be 10° C, and I think that was about right. With the grey sky, rain and puddles it still felt like it was very cold outside.
 BBC_weather
                    forecast
  The road looks very wet outside, but no rain is shown in the forecast until 6pm. Even then it will be light rain or even drizzle. The afternoon should be a degree higher than yesterday at 11° C. Apart from a colder start, 7° C, tomorrow is currently shown as identical to today.

  Yesterday was not a bad day, but it was a day when not much happened. I guess that should have made it restful, but somehow doing very little didn't feel restful on this occasion. A few things are worth describing, and my day is more fully described in my complete archived page for today.
Saturday 7th February 2026
 09:42 GMT

  Yesterday was another wet day, but there did seem to be an hour or so when it was not raining and it was brighter out, although that is not shown on the forecast for the day. The early morning version of the forecast showed two hours when thunder might be expected. That was reduced to one hour, and in reality there was no thunder at all. The afternoon temperature reached a still rather cool feeling 11° C.
 BBC_weather
                    forecast
  Yet another day when the forecast says rain all day, and it has certainly been raining since I first opened the curtains this morning. The afternoon may reach a cool 10° C. It might possible be dry after 7pm. Much of tomorrow may be dry, but it will stay very dull. The afternoon may reach 11° C. Rain is forecast to start again at about 7pm, and initially it may be just drizzle.

  Yesterday started out quite unpleasant. I was very uncomfortably constipated, and I spent a lot of time sitting on the toilet. I think it was just before midday when things finally moved, and I felt so much better for it - even if my bottom still felt sore. The rest of the day was pretty fair, and maybe even slightly good. My day is described more fully in my complete archived page for today.

  Like most days this february (or so it seems at the moment) yesterday was a wet day with mostly light rain all day long. It was also quite a cold seeming day. The morning was just 7° C. There was a brief peak of 10° C mid afternoon, but the rest of the day was just 9° C.
 BBC_weather
                    forecast
  The (BBC) weather forecast for today has changed a few times. Last night it gave two different hours when there might be some thunder and lightning. The very latest revision shows no thunder at all, just light rain from early morning until 8pm. After that it may be dry. The afternoon may reach 11° C after a 9° C start to the day. After the afternoon the temperature will sink to maybe 8° C by midnight. The current forecast for tomorrow shows rain from the start to the end of the day. It will be light rain until 8pm, and then just drizzle. The temperature may be almost the same as today.

  Yesterday was a good day, but not as good as hoped. For instance it would have been better if I had managed the shopping trip to Tesco that I would have liked to have done. I didn't go out mostly on account of the rain, but some of the reason was doubts about how I would feel as I "run in" my new heart valve. There is a more complete description of my day in my complete archived page for today.

 10:12 GMT

 Yesterday was quite chilly. The temperature was forecast to rise to 9° C in the middle of the day, but most of the day was just 7° C, and there was a fair bit of wind to make that feel even colder. There was some rain in the middle of the day, and some of it sounded quite heavy on the roof of the hospital toilet (which had no windows so I could not see outside).
 BBC_weather forecast
  Today is shown as being wet all day long - not a great forecast for my latest first day out of hospital ! It is looking quite wet outside, although it is only light rain. The forecast says there will be non stop light rain from before dawn and for well after it. Maybe the temperature may see 10° C for a single hour this afternoon. The morning is like yesterday, just 7° C. After the afternoon high the temperature will settle to just 9° C for the rest of the day. Tomorrow is currently forecast to feature light rain for the whole day again, but it may be a tiny bit warmer. the morning my be 8° C, and the afternoon may see 10° C for a few hours before it falls back to 9° C for the rest of the day.

  I have other hospital appointments coming up, but all are single days. Today I am finally home from the main event - which felt like as much as a week, but was only 2 days (or two nights). My last couple of days are described more fully in my complete archived page for today.
Monday 2nd February 2026
 10:12 GMT

 Yesterday was very damp day. There was rain for most hours of the day. Mostly it was light rain, but there was some heavier rain after dark. The afternoon temperature only reached 9° C.
 BBC_weather forecast
  This morning has started wet, but some hours this morning may be dry. The afternoon will continue to be wet, but from 5pm it may be dry until some drizzle falls at 1am tomorrow morning. Like nearly all afternoons recently, it will be 9° C.  The ends of the day may be 7° C. Tomorrow is going to be cold. The day will start and end on 5° C, and the afternoon may see 6° C. There will be light rain all day long.

  Yesterday was good in parts. Being very lazy was the best part ! Having a shower was a good part too, but most of the rest of the time was nothing spectacular, and that included the Sunday afternoon beer drinking session. Maybe some cooking I did was quite good. My whole day is described as well as I can remember it in my complete archived page for today.
Sunday 1st February 2026
 09:52 GMT

 Yesterday was mostly dry, and there were even a few sunny spells in the early afternoon. Once again the afternoon temperature was 10° C. By 11pm it was raining, and the temperature was down to 7° C.
 BBC_weather forecast
  This morning it is wet, and the forecast says it is going to be wet all day long. The only semi good thing is that only light rain is forecast. This afternoon will be a whole degree cooler than the last 5 or 6 afternoon. Just 9° C. It looks like it is going to be quite chilly tonight with just 5° C at midnight. It will still be 5° C tomorrow morning, and it is going to be another wet start. It could be dry my midday, and the temperature will reach it's peak by then, just 9° C.

  Yesterday was a good day - although mostly because I went out shopping again. The rest of the day was pleasant, but nothing exciting. Although I did think I ate a bit too much. It seems that was not the case when I did my usual morning health measurements. As usual, my day is more fully described in my complete archived page for today.
