Made a first draft mockup

of my sister-in-common-law’s website which I was supposed to do about a year and a half ago. Feels good to have it underway at last.

Started in on my very first ER diagram

for my secret project. ER, for those who don’t know is “entity relationship”, so I am told, and is the first step in working out how to build the database I need. Exciting stuff!

Checked that I had the right number of bars spare in the Satie piece

… to accommodate the tape part which has yet to be transcribed. I didn’t – but I do now!

Visited museums

Specifically, the Jackfield tile museum and the Coalbrookedale Museum of Iron – both excellent and some lovely designs on display.

Explored Shropshire

In particular, Much Wenlock (which has an awesome yarn shop and a very nice bakery and an excellent ruined priory where we bought an English Heritage picnic rug at last) and Bridgnorth (which has a great corridor-style secondhand bookshop). Saw some gorgeous tiles at the Much Wenlock priory and a ruined abbey en route – curious because they were all totally random tiles – apparently they were original, so I guess the monks picked up a few batches of seconds from the local tile factories!

Got the WordPress template up and running!

And gosh, I’ve learnt a lot today! Dragged out my worn and sorry PHP knowledge for a refresher. Ditto for JavaScript and CSS. I’ve set up the basic template, worked out how to add in multiple widgets (for the categories cloud and calendar) and generally tweaked and bullied the whole thing into submission. I think it’ll be a couple of days before it goes live though – still have to do the same for a couple of other blogs before I can redirect the domain!
