ArcTanGent 2023
It's another bullet point list. No point me typing this up again. I went in a camper this year, like a bougie jerk, and I am now spoiled. I will not camp as long as I have the choice - the whole weekend was so much better this year
British Lawnmower Racing Association 500
Lawnmower racing has been a discovery in multiple acts. First we watched a random video on YouTube, then our friend nearly drove their mower into their pond, and then 5 miles from their house there was a 500 lap endurance race. This was all in less than a month. I like that.
Malayalam, Eastbourne
It's not often that a restaurant is so good that I'll make a specific post about it but there y'go.
Scotland 2023
Nice little getaway to Scotland. I had never been before, so we decided to spend a few days in Glasgow, then a few in Edinburgh.
My little square of sunrise
I haven't thought to look back and see how it happens, but sunrise for the past few weeks has been cutting through a hole in everything, and making a nice little rectangle on our fence. It's one of those things that feels like it's just for me. Do you ever get that?
Pizza Sunday
Another Pizza Sunday. Told you I'd stop counting. These were the best ones I've made so far.
Keyboard Pano
I've had the idea for this in my head for a while but couldn't be bothered to do it until now. I had to add something to my site for it to work. Probably broken in your browser.
I wish I was a cat
I mean just look at this lazy little jerk. Never seen anything like it, if I'm honest.
Pizza with my new apron
Mozzarella balls in the topping this time. Fewer pizza photos and more new-apron photos.
Dilemma v1 Choc
I love the Dilemma but my Charybdis fits way better on my desk. Decided to put some low profile switches on the Dilemma so I can throw it in my bag and use it when I'm not at my desk. So far so good.
KBDCraft Adam
I got this for Tabitha. Well, I got this then I remembered I can't type on row stagger any more so I decided it would become for Tabitha. And she built the case and put the switches in, so she's on her way to a new addiction.
I made pizza, take three
I made pizza again. This time a cold ferment in the fridge over the course of three days. What a massive improvement to the quality of the dough. Probably not going to number every post. At least not when I can actually reliably succeed at this!
Nike Jason Tatum Pink Lemonade
I love loud shoes, and these are up there. The deciding factor was Jason and I sharing a monogram. I know Nike has ID but this is better.
Vollebak
I've been into Vollebak's clothes for a while. I want the garbage watch. I've got a few things from them, and you know me; I live in them.
I made pizza, take two
I had another go at making some pizza. Tried a different dough recipe and it seemed to make a huge difference. I also watched a tonne of videos on how to make and stretch dough. It is possible to learn things just by watching...?
Oil palette
We went into an artist's gallery/shop because she was making a rug and it looked interesting. Then saw her palette/easel thing and immediately knew I'd found my new desktop background.
Day Off Ramble to Lewes
Jake's coming to visit this weekend so I took some time off. I took an extra day and decided to go for a walk to Lewes. It's not super far unless you take a really inefficient route. In the biz, we call that scenic, I'll have you know.
I made pizza
I am a horrible cook. Just awful. But we have been watching the Chef's Table Pizza show on Netflix and it made me want to try and make pizza. It appears more successful the further back you stand.
The lost art of the tactical, permissive skive
It's important, every now and again, to treat yourself to a bit of naughtiness. A cheeky little Friday PM skive when you've already finished your todo list and some of next week's, and you've let everyone know you're stepping out. Beautiful.
Taking the moral high ground and salting the low ground
I know you should try to be the bigger person when someone does something to annoy you, but it always ends up making me feel like a chump.
