Okay thanks for the attention, full output below:

$ nslookup phspi05

** server can't find phspi05: SERVFAIL

if I specify the dns in nslookup
$ nslookup phspi05 192.168.2.1
Server:		192.168.2.1
Address:	192.168.2.1#53

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:	phspi05
Address: 192.168.2.35
** server can't find phspi05: NXDOMAIN

and the contents of resolv.conf

$ cat /etc/resolv.conf
# Dynamic resolv.conf(5) file for glibc resolver(3) generated by resolvconf(8)
#     DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE BY HAND -- YOUR CHANGES WILL BE OVERWRITTEN
# 127.0.0.53 is the systemd-resolved stub resolver.
# run "systemd-resolve --status" to see details about the actual nameservers.

nameserver 127.0.0.53
search phs

If I manually edit resolv.conf to the local dns, nslookup, ping etc.
work as expected (until the next reboot of course)

Title:
  DNS lookup fails for local hosts

Status in resolvconf package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Mint 19 (Ubuntu Bionic) 
  Laptop so Using NetworkManager, and connecting wirelessly to LAN
  Upgraded from Mint 18.3 so using resolvconf...

  Versions:
  network-manager: 1.10.6-2ubuntu1.1
  resolvconf: 1.79ubuntu10.18.04.3 or 1.79ubuntu10.18.04.2
  systemd: 237-3ubuntu10.15

  dns is specified in NetworkMananager as 192.168.2.1
  the dns is a router, and has static ips assigned to certain hosts on my lan...

  $cat resolv.conf
  nameserver 127.0.0.53
  search phs
  options edns0

  $ nslookup phspi05
  Server:		127.0.0.53
  Address:	127.0.0.53#53

  ** server can't find phspi05: SERVFAIL

  If I explicity specify the dns:

  $ nslookup phspi05 192.168.2.1
  Server:		192.168.2.1
  Address:	192.168.2.1#53

  Non-authoritative answer:
  Name:	phspi05
  Address: 192.168.2.35

  I get the correct ip address...

  Same with dig...

  I would expect that the nameserver set in network-manager would be
  used....

  From tail of $ systemd-resolve --status

  Link 2 (wlp2s0)
        Current Scopes: DNS
         LLMNR setting: yes
  MulticastDNS setting: no
        DNSSEC setting: no
      DNSSEC supported: no
           DNS Servers: 192.168.2.1
            DNS Domain: phs

  So the dns address had been picked up from NetworkManager, but
  apparently is not being used...

  Thought it might be related to this bug:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/bionic/+source/resolvconf/+bug/1817903

  So installed the proposed fix, but no change. I also tried removing
  package resolvconf, again no change...
