Updates
The week before we wind down for Christmas always feels like a busy one. Rather than things slowing down, it feels like I speed up to cram as many things in before taking a break.
It might be bad planning, but when the laptop finally shuts at work the break is really welcome.
This year I have a ton of ideas for the site and I'm going to spend some of my downtime working through those.
Reading. Finished - Nick Cleggs 'How to fix the Internet'. It's taken a while, review coming to the site next week.

Big favourites 'The Black Dog' are back with something new, I just took delivery of their new album 'Loud Ambient' on vinyl and it's an absolute belter.
Ten tracks of electronica that call back to a golden age of synth music, echoing progressive, shimmering house music from the 90's and coupling those sounds with modern expansive production that sounds 'of the moment'.
I completely love this one, and expect it to be on heavy rotation for a while.
Highly recommended.
