Awful night. Didn’t sleep well, have finally succumbed to Mrs Basil’s lurgy. Now I have to hope I can at least mostly recover before heading to Dubrovnik… It’s likely that my birthday pub crawl through Manchester is gonna have to be scrapped. Managed to get most of my work handover done.

Another dull day of manual test execution turning my brain to mush. Mrs Basil only worked until half past 8 tonight. On the plus side, my Kobo colour arrived. It’s nice but it’ll still take some getting used to. I need to figure out how to strip DRM.

Spent the day trying to rest and recover. Don’t think I feel as bad as yesterday. Possibly due to a good nights sleep and a day of rest. Mrs Basil did all the heavy lifting today. Walking the dog, making dinner. I hope she’s not overdoing it during her recovery, but she insists she’s fine.

Had the day off but had the dog. Did a big walk to the pub via the pet shop and the park. The dog has only just settled and has been awake for about 12 hours. She’s going to be comatose tomorrow.

Another day of rest. Only thing that happened was the mother stopped by and I opened my birthday present from her, a Japanese knife. It’s very nice, here’s hoping I can take care of it.

A day out drinking in Newcastle with my old mates from my hometown. Started at a new arcade bar which would have been fine… if it didn’t stink of sewage. Went to a few of the usual places and, after seven hours or so, they all piled onto the train home and I went for some gyros.
