    Very cold day. Dull and slow workday. Mrs Basil came home and tagged me in with the dog. So I froze in the field for an hour. I accidentally let my Syncler subscription expire so had to quickly buy a new one this evening.

    Work started easy today then escalated. I seem to have become the lightning rod for discontent regarding a particular system, despite having no involvement in creating or choosing said system. Quite frustrating. Another day with the dog, so thankfully the sun was out.

    Busy day at work so headed to the pub afterwards. All the locals were in good spirits in the aftermath of Newcastle winning the league cup last Sunday.

    Mrs Basil is coordinating a film shoot in the area on behalf of a Spanish feature production. She’s hired a local bar / restaurant for the day to use as a base. So tonight we went to check it out after work. Chicken flatbread and a pint. Hit the spot.

    Very tiring day at work. Lead Dev on leave. European Medicines Agency doing an inspection. People asking for things every five minutes. Plus I had the dog and Mrs Basil is feeling sick as hell. About to collapse into bed and sleep like the dead.

    Return of the mud. Walked the dog at lunch and she was more mud than dog by the end of it. I almost slipped over a good few times. Work was the usual level of frustrating.
