    Binge watching to try and catch up to season 3 so I can watch it with my wife.

  • Summer Sevens AAW – Wrens vs Thunderbirds

  • Happy that White Noise has been updated for iOS 13, my previous favourite white noise app, StormSim, hasn’t been updated in 2 years…

  • Have any Adobe Lightroom users, either Classic and CC, performed the Catalina upgrade yet? If you have, has Adobe fixed the import/storage issue in Catalina?

  • 📺 Watching Peaky Blinders: Black Tuesday (S5.E1)

    In the wake of the Wall Street Crash, Tommy faces new dangers from unexpected quarters.

  • Looking forward to getting home to actually enjoy the remains of the long weekend, been away at a conference the last few days.

  • Wish I had my proper camera with me, I loathe digital zoom.

  • Over the weekend, we had our Club Presentation Day, somehow I was voted Club Person of The Year, which was quite surprising and also very awesome. It’s nice to be recognised for all the work I’ve been putting in.

  • I have a love/hate relationship with building websites. I love building websites for other people, especially when they know what they want. When it comes to building one for myself, ugh, it’s the worst.

    After getting my remote pilots license, I figured I better get something together to show that I’m available for hire, the sort of work I do, and some examples of what I’ve done already, so of course, I’m building a website for myself.

    In reality, it should be pretty easy to put it together, but of course, it’s not.

    When it comes to making decisions as to what element to put where, what to include, what to leave out, and all the other sorts of questions a web designer/developer would ask to get them moving on a project, I just cannot settle on any answers.

    So frustrating!

    Not 100% sure how to progress, I guess I’m probably best off throwing something/anything on the website and then refining it a little later on…it doesn’t need to be perfect at launch!
