A fun evening, watching our students grill the hell out of a former prime minister. All under the Chatham House Rule, alas, so I can’t say any more.

A walk down memory lane to 1994, when this young chap (me) had his view of journalism shifted by the launch of a new magazine for men

Adam Tinworth in 1994.

We did the thing yesterday.

Pancakes on pancake day.

Adventure time.

Two girls walking through bracken.

Holy flip, that’s a lot:


I’ve just revamped the look of my Ghost blog One Man & His Blog, and am very happy with the results:

A new look for One Man & His Blog.

This pen is a blast from the past. Early 2000s blogging, when Movable Type and Typepad seemed like they would dominate - a good time, but so long ago.

A pen with the Six Apart logo on it.

First time using my iPhone as a webcam for my training course this morning. It worked great. One of the best new features of macOS.


Ah, the sweet satisfaction of landing one of the free EV charge parking spaces in the morning.

We’re coming back into the light. The sun was rising as we drove to the pool this morning, after months of doing this trip in the dark.

Spring’s a-coming.

A 7.20am sunrise over the South Downs.

Beware: killer clowns and hangry bears.


My kind of diversion.

A sign reading "coffee diversion".

Visiting.

Took me too many years - but I finally got that last elusive micro.blog badge…


Lovely sunrise over Hassocks station this morning.

This morning’s wisdom from the crack-of-dawn trip to the pool for my daughter:

A whiteboard reading "motivation is what gets you started. habit is what keeps you going"

SUPpers and swans.

Stand-up paddle-boarders and swans on the Adur.

I know their days are numbered, but nothing quite beats a free charge at the station while you’re up in London.


Lovely to see some blue sky again today. It’s been a hard January, and this was the lift I needed this afternoon.

Blue sky with the edge of a treer in one corner

Ivory has won promotion to my iPad dock…

Nice to see more EV charging infrastructure going in, just around the corner from my house.

Connected Kerb installation on Harbour Way, Shoreham Beach.

The tide was far enough out today that we actually had something approximating sand! -
