    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.

    Hot as hell again today. 26 degs in the living room. Mrs Basil took the dog out at 7am for a couple of hours. We went and got a bird bath for the garden and in the evening there was a bit of a thunderstorm which aggravated the dog a bit.

    Finished with the process improvement workshop at work, thank god. I imagine sod all will come of it like last time. Went for pints with the old company refugees after work, which was excellent. Although I definitely drank too much.
