Reaching out

A while back I made a short post about reaching out to those you regret losing touch with. And yet seemingly I do not like the taste of my own medicine. Oftentimes I find it hard enough to start a conversation with (increasingly even responding to) people I am in

Stupid mental health stuff

Stupid mental health stuff

I was sat at home after work and suddenly I didn't feel well. Like, not physically unwell - physically I feel better than I have in a while - but something in my mind. I could feel it gluing me to my seat, so I've taken myself out for a

Today, for Kathrin's birthday treat, we went to Windsor to visit the castle. Kathrin likes castles.

Adz's Gig Diary

A long time ago, about 20 years ago now (fuck), I was in a band. I went by "Adz", the band was called Eskimo Toccata, and we were... decidedly average. I've got some MP3's somewhere. Maybe I will share them one day. (Edit: maybe I won't. I've just listened and

Back To The Office: Part IV - A New Hope

What's this? A trilogy in 4 parts? Turns out I'm not done with this subject after all. What hope? Honestly? I don't know. I'm coming around to the idea of "Hybrid Working". Slowly. I still think it is completely arbitrary to enforce physical location when jobs are clearly getting done

Earlier today my wife suggested we take some time of work and go somewhere. My response was "What's the point?" The bit I didn't say, the bit that my brain did in the split second before I responded was: "Somewhere". Where is "Somewhere"? What does "Somewhere" have to offer that

Back to the office: Part III

I said this probably wouldn't be a trilogy, and yet here we are. Hopefully getting the third and final part out there will free up my mind to think of something else to write about. I just wanted to put together a small update on how things are shaping up

Processing Bad News

Processing Bad News

A long time ago, when I was someone else entirely, I was friends with someone. At one point, we were more than friends. We stopped being more than friends, and then because I was a petulant teenager with no handle on emotion, we eventually stopped being friends. I found out

Back to the office: Part II

In my previous post, I wrote about my own anxiety surrounding the idea of returning to the office. If you have not already read that, it's here: Back to the officeFour words that fill me with dread. Just the thought of it makes me feel sick tomy stomach. As we

Back to the office

Back to the office

Four words that fill me with dread. Just the thought of it makes me feel sick to my stomach. As we pass the one year mark of the greatest shakeup to society, rumours have started circulating that "everything is going back to normal soon", "we'll be back in the office

Same same, but different

When I was writing my previous post, I stumbled upon a project called Telraam, an initiative to effectively crowdsource traffic flow data in various parts of the world. It appears to be part of another project called WeCount, which is well worth reading up on. There are several ways to

*...maybe. I don't know really how accurate it is yet. This weekend started with an offer of beer. I like beer. I'm also partial to diving down a rabbit hole. @promofaux will you build one of these for me? I’ll pay for the bits and buy you beer. https:
