Ruairidh, the little monster, thinks jumping in the water bowl and scooping the water out backwards is acceptable behaviour. On a conference call. Four times. Crazy Spaniel.

Rounded out the weekend mowing the lawn and BBQing in the garden. Its rained here once in about 6 weeks, which makes little sense given the usual amount of rain we receive.

Achievement of the weekend was refining my rss feed to show micro posts as titleless posts in the micro. blog timeline. Had it working last night, but fully rebuilt it today as I broke something with my final tweaks last night.

BayLee "the favourite" is daily dog today. His weight and conditioning have improved as we have resolved his underactive thyroid, he now raises his ears most of the time again - but he looks older for it. I don't have favourites, but if I did...

Mr Leo accepting that the wee haggis Ruairidh is going to sit on him, impressive given Leo's predominantly solitary philosophy on space.

Started off my day with a CT scan, which I had to step into Bl@ckburn for. Made sure to dress appropriately.

🪴An hour at the allotment turned into 2 when I realised the bed I wanted to put my fruit bushes into was already full of, erm, fruit bushes. Potted on rather than waste - Princess Caoimhe on sentry on the potatoes throughout.

At Turf Moor this afternoon for the game with Millwall. An opportunity to avenge one of just two defeats this season and, others reliant, secure the championship title. Again.

Last call off of the season at Norton Canes - no doubt will be back in August.

I headed down to Fulham today for a work meeting, taking in Putney Bridge Underground Station on the District Line, the River Cafe outside was excellent. I'll be back down a few miles away tomorrow at Loftus Road.

Early start, and a nice clear morning here in Manchester for the first of two trips to this part of London in as many days.

After spending the evening rebuilding microformats, as hoped, comments are now landing on the target article, and not my homepage. The indiewebify.me validators made this so much easier than the documentation.

I didn't want to tempt fate and put an extra hour on the parking ticket yesterday. Here's me home in time to see the promotion celebrations continue on the big screen.

As knee deep in code today, I also took the opportunity to upgrade the run/ride metadata on my site so that is more prominent and iconised, similar to my RSS and echofeed streams.

As it was a long weekend, I spent a day installing Komments 3.1.1 on my Kirby CMS build, and styling the new output streams. Have just concluded a morning of looking for html problems in my css.

Really like this photo of me and Moo. I'd just turned back from my trip to Watford as he was ill, so picked him up and took him for a walk.

I didn't make it to Watford today, I had to return home as Mustang was unwell. Here he is with Ruairidh a week ago. He's not long left now, but he still seems to be happy.

Watched the first three episodes of Toxic Town on Netflix. Harrowing anyway, more so with a decent working knowledge of occupational hygiene.

Stopped off at the plot to water the seedlings in the greenhouse on my way to the Turf. Fantastic weather for the game.

In other exciting news from the weekend, we picked up the keys to our allotment after 7 years on the waiting list - we fell very lucky with the condition of the plot. Now I need to build a whole new section in my digital garden about our actual garden!

Not sure where the month went, but Ruairidh arrived today, and bayLee adores him! Looking forward to the calmness a working cocker introduces to our pack.

This section teaches use of f-strings in Python to produce easily customisable variable driven output. Also
end="" to prevent print statements terminating to new line - I've never used this.💬👍🚀👋 Discussion
