Boarded flight from Dublin to San Francisco - onward we go #MSIgnite
Left home at 04:45 π΄ now at LBA waiting for my first leg to Dublin and then onto San Francisco #MSIgnite
Session done yesterday so today is catching up on work, talking to attendees and supporting other speakers. Taking in @rachelappel.bsky.socialβs session on Retro AI: Exploring modern AI concepts through the Commodore 64 and BASIC #azuredevsummit
Arrived in Lisbon, waiting in a huge passport control queue. This was what Brexshit was about, weβre world renowned for queuing so obviously not having to queue for things like this was unacceptable to a portion of our society. Probably the same portion who rarely travelled π«
Leg/knee room is sparse on British Airways these days!
Iβm fairly slim, under 6ft and Iβm feeling a bit cramped on this @british-airways.bsky.social flight today Lisbon. Seats are very upright too! Definitely gone down in my experience in terms of customer experience. Almost feels like theyβve crammed some extra rows of seats on flights!
Cover Art of Ethel Carnie Holdsworthβs This Slavery. A graphic novel by Scarlett and Sophie Rickard.
Just finished @rickardsisters.com adaptation of Ethel Carnie Holdsworthβs This Slavery, started it last night and couldnβt stop. Just like their other two adaptations of No Surrender and The Ragged Trousered Philanthropists. Highly, highly recommend! Wonderful way to discover these powerful works.
Maybe just maybe, I can have one week or month without additional stress :(. Not too much to ask for is it? π
This is what the pro-Brexit argument has been reduced to now: "I like being able to needlessly inconvenience myself. Why are you taking it away from me?"

Got our tickets for the Home leg #safc #playoffs - Ha'way the Lads!!
I've been thinking a lot about that bumper sticker which says "everything looks like a conspiracy theory when you don't understand how anything works" and folks it's pretty obvious to me that the people in power right now have absolutely no desire to understand how anything works.
@jamescopley.bsky.social any updates on when/if Danns might join up with us? Would help with forward rotation. That said hope to see Trey getting some time on the pitch hopefully.

Few months out from my broadband contract expiring and been sent the renewal "offer" - more expensive for the same thing, not exactly an incentive for me to renew when competitors are cheaper and offer more.
Nothing like navigating both UK and US taxes to raise stress levels :( #firstworldproblem
Starting off 2025 with a bit of a reset. Have closed all three rings on 4 out of six days so far. Using that system more as a reminder to get moving more, eager to add more to it this month, plus in advance of starting to coach Under 8βs football too! Aim is to seriously reduce cortisol/stress
One of my biggest tech frustrations as a parent is controlling YouTube! Want to enable restricted mode as default but cannot find one way that works. Not even sure if premium would let me.
Sick of battling the lurgy π«
Yes! DDD North is back... CFP opens today at 3pm, and the event is 22nd Feb 2025, at the University of Hull!
Horrid cold hitting me hard today. So hungry but struggling to face food. Better by night time but mornings, afternoons not fun.
Thanks to USSoccer
taking 10 days to cancel an order due to overselling an item, I'm now in the unenviable position of trying to source my youngest's #1 Christmas Present elsewhere at this late stage. Not impressed!
So I took a couple of days off last week so obviously my body thought lets whack him with a cold :/. Hopefully though this means it's out of the way until I finish for the year..
Another day of battling with the LA regarding EOTAS provision. Quibbling about cost when the public services don't provide the support needed and only option is to go privately sourced. All gets pushed back on the families. System is broken.
Just booked my remaining holiday days through to the new year. Looking forward to a short break at the end of this week and a much bigger one next month.
Glad you and your family are safe and well
