Installed more apps that were missing from my phone and set most of them up. Did my walk as normal, no issues there. Had to re-pair my phone with my car since everything was reset, though.

Late out today -- my phone wanted to upgrade so I attempted it (it was an upgrade from Android 9 to Android 10), and it didn't work, and I ended up having to factory reset and install from scratch. I did have some Titanium Backup backups, but they didn't seem to work a lot of the time :/

So for the most part, I just reinstalled all the apps I remember using and logged in. For most, that was fine. But I lost the MFA codes on Google Authenticator, meaning I had to remove and setup:

• AWS
• LastPass
• Wordpress
• GitLab

all over again

AWS was quick and painless after a security check to confirm I was who I said I was and they called me on the number on the account.

Wordpress was painless too -- I was already logged in, so just removed MFA and set it up again, then logged in again. Similarly with LastPass

GitLab however, is proving to be more of a pain. They no longer accept MFA removal requests for people on the Free plan. So I wonder if they will accept me going to a subscription model so I _can_ then request the MFA removal. I think it is better anyway, since I'm hitting the 400 minute CI limit pretty regularly. The 2000 minute CI limit would be better. At least until I can get my own GitLab install working.

As for the run, yes, it was a run -- well, more of a jog, anyway. Still did the 3km lap, doing it in 20 mins rather than the 30 mins it normally takes me when I walk it.

Forgot to log my walk yesterday. So doing both today.

Yesterday, I decided to look at a house up for sale on Zoopla, but couldn't find it. The map marker was where a gated house was, but there was no estate agent sign. Maybe it's been sold already?

But at least I got a nice walk out of it.

Today I did my normal lap around. Tesco have made progress on the forecourt of their petrol station, but I haven't the foggiest what kind of work they're doing.

Later walk than normal -- the weather was colder and darker, but still made it around without any rain soaking me this time.

In other news, you may recall I spoke about a prospective new house I was looking at. Well, even though my offer was accepted, the seller decided to pull out of the deal before any contracts were exchanged. I'm bummed as heck over it, but not much I can do about it, I guess.

Went out for my walk and I got totally soaked, even though I ended up sprinting the lap.

Just made it back before it started pouring with rain.

Short walk because it was raining (and still is)

Grey and cloudy, but no rain while I was running -- it was indeed pissing down with rain earlier, but thankfully, not while I was out on my walk.

No rain today, but still puddles on the floor. Went around with fleece jumper and coat. Was pretty warm by the time I came back.

Warmer day, no rain, no clouds, but the park was flooded from the period of extended rain so ended up walking one lap, then having to turn around and to another lap in the other direction before heading home.

Raining today. It eased up a bit so I went for my walk, but it was still drizzling. As I make it back home, it's still raining. :(

A comfortably warm day today. No need for gloves or beanie, but still wore a cap and my jacket.

Not a hot day, but not cold. Still went out with my gloves and hat, and noticed a few people with looser clothing. Was I wrong? Don't think so. I still felt cold until about 2 km in, and then still wasn't "hot" hot.

Cold and grey today, but no rain.

And it also looks like the panic buying has started already. Big queues coming out of Aldi causing traffic jams both ways on the main road outside it.

Windy, grey, and a bit wet. Went for a short walk in the park, and found a anti-COVID graffiti sign saying it was a scam and to "rise up"

I guess anti-vaxxers want to complain about everything they can.

Windy but dry. Comfortable walk, but had to use my running beanie and gloves today -- for the first time this year.

Grey and raining again, went a diferent route but still not as far as my normal walk, back to route-hunting again....

grey and raining. Luckily it didn't rain during my walk. Decided to do a lap in the park -- didn't want to risk going to far out in case I get caught in any sudden downpours.

Different route, and ended up a shorter distance. Gotta find a different route tomorrow.

Day 160 in quarantine. Jeez.... can't believe it's got to that many days so far.....

Warm day again, and replaced one of my valve caps on my car -- one of the caps had gone mission/stolen and I only found out when I went to top up the air pressure of my tyres.

Affinity Water contacted me over twitter to ask about my previous reports of water problems. They confirmed there was an issue in my area and that had been resolved (which agrees with my observations).

Later walk, and comfortable temperature.

Later walk today, cooler and slower. Did my early Saturday morning shopping and I was on call, and got an incident call while in the middle of Tesco. Had to escalate the incident up to my boss since I wasn't able to check it for at least an hour. :(

Cooler day today. And found that my shoes had a squashed berry and some stones stuck to it. I have no idea where I got them from, used a broken off twig to pry some of if off.

Cooler day, and ran part of the way around. Not fun being on call :(

Slightly cooler day than yesterday, but still pretty warm. A quick walk gave me some sweat but nothing too much.

The water in my house is not as cloudy now as was yesterday -- whatever Affinity Water was doing, probably has now cleared.
