Schlepped out of work early to head out to the Ouseburn to watch a gig. A few beers and some ageing rockers. Managed not to get too drunk for a school night.

Mrs Basil was up and off to work at half 3 this morning to film the sunrise with her drone. So I had the morning, lunch, and evening shift with the dog and had to cook dinner. Which as usual, left me feeling harassed. The rain departed in time for the evening walk. Small mercy.

The heat wave commeth. Was dog sitting a chocolate lab called Max. Scout was her usual possessive self. Took them to the pub because I knew it would be quiet, they were both pretty well behaved.

Annoying work day that went on forever. Couldn’t walk the dog at lunch or after work so she was very hyper. Mrs Basil took her out at about half 8 so hopefully she’ll soon settle down. Have been cooking healthy meat free dinners this week and they’ve all been rubbish.

It was 30+ degrees today. Felt like Satan’s armpit. More tension at work between the lead dev and the useless tester. Dog sitting Max the chocolate lab for a few hours again this evening. Spent most of the time trying to keep him cool.

Absolute toss day at work doing “process improvement” brainstorming. Just left me feeling pessimistic and jaded. I elected not to watch the England Denmark group match, which from the sound of everyone’s complaining, was a good call. I went to the pub, then met Mrs Basil and the dog at 7pm before heading home.
