Didn’t do much today. The dog had an anxious restless evening because Mrs Basil was watching Man United. The silver lining is that the dog should be tired tomorrow while Mrs Basil is in London for the day.

A long work day. Started early, but the perils of a global company, the moment I was flagged online I was accosted by colleagues in India and eastern Europe. I spent about 9 hours on the same specification document. Coma inducing. My evening has been dominated by my aches and pains from yesterday’s digging and the dog’s toxic farts.

Mrs Basil in London today at BBC. She was told her radio show last year was a ratings hit. I walked the dog for almost 3 hours total so I could abandon her and go to the pub and get a burger.

A much more relaxed day today, thankfully. I even finished work slightly early. Wrote a blog this evening for the February Indieweb carnival “Digital Relationships”. I used it as an excuse to reminisce about Identica and then realised how unfinished my site still is. Now I’m starring at a watch on eBay that I shouldn’t buy.

Long stint in the field with the dog after work. Mrs Basil had a comp ticket for the theatre so had a few hours to myself. New watch strap arrived for my Alpinist, the one it came with is crazy uncomfortable.

A day with the dog, since Mrs Basil had some filming to do this afternoon. Decided to finish work at half 4 and take Scout out early to get her plenty of exercise before it got dark. Mostly in the hope she’d settle down early in the evening, it did not work. Mrs Basil watched Man Utd limp through the FA cup.
