    Walked the dog for 3 hours at lunch. Partly because Mrs Basil wanted to steam clean the house, partly because we had plans this evening and needed the dog to be tired. This evening we went out for a drink and a meal in Ouseburn. My food was a let down but it was a nice evening.

    Work got a bit awkward today. The useless bloke on the team got a bit salty with another dev’s code review. This did not go down well and led to an uncomfortable exchange, what fun. Torrential rain since mid afternoon made for an extremely soggy dog walk.

    The dog had a clash of teeth while playing with her bestie. Some blood and maybe a small chip in a tooth, but nothing more dramatic than that it would seem. Had intended to spend some time on my website this weekend but did nothing.

    More miserable weather today. I went to a “Vinyl Fair” at a local pub this afternoon. It was a generous description. One guy selling records. A waste of time. I had a pint while the worst of the rain past and went home. Got nothing done today that I thought I might.

    Spent all day wrangling a front end bug at work that had been elusive for months. Was very draining but at least progress was made. Tinkered with my blog CSS this evening while Mrs Basil watched a depressing documentary about Palestinian evictions.

    The usual Sunday morning dog walk followed by a munch needed rest. I had a plan to transplant some wild garlic into the garden from the woods down the street. But after a dozen or so failed foraging attempts, I called it quits. I did almost nothing productive this weekend.
