This will mean the end of non-US speakers or attendees at US conferences.

Losing 2-0 against Hull, who were far the better team, tonight. Championship football is a whole new, err, league.

And fuck playlists and “deluxe” editions. The only way to listen to The Beatles is an original album from beginning to end. That said, the 2017+ remasters are banging!

Good God. Abbey Road is still one of the best albums ever made.

Phew. An equaliser in the 95th minute against a superior Blackburn Rovers side.

👉 In 2026, I’d really like to work for an organisation 2–3 days a week. So if you know of one who’d benefit from my design expertise, let me know.

Yesterday morning we left Germany. This afternoon, we’re back in Cymru. An 800 miles drive and I’m cream crackered!

Also, I could help myself. I’m having fun with my banner characters again!

It took me (almost) 60 years to sit down with my Mum to ask her about my Dad. What a tragic story. Not just for him, but for the people his intolerable behaviour affected.

I was only snuggling with Betsy a couple of days ago and now she’s gone. So sad for her owners.
