Spring Brighton SEO has come and gone - it was as fantastic as ever. I have now started to wade through the videos of talks I wasn't able to be in and will probably rerun some of those I did.
Got myself some new tools and a new rolling toolbox system to put them in for some big upcoming home projects this year.
Meanwhile I have added a small feature to the Spotify played list below - a time stamp. It was already there in the API data I was picking up but I wasn't using it on the page.
And in other news my mother in law broke an iBuleve tube key, for rolling up the paste tube from the bottom, and asked me if I could repair it - couldn't as it was too fragile to glue and be useable. So I took the measurements and created a new one in Tinkercad and 3d printed it - she is delighted! And it works!
Work
Working on a new site for a local business at the moment and we have hit a few blocks on the way but are getting there.
The Genealogy artwork project is also on the blocks and being worked on and is complex but coming on well.
If you want me to have a look at a project of yours, please do get in touch.
Hobbies
No progress on Whitesands Quay for a while though have had some thoughts. Waiting for the next spell of inspiration.
Gaming
Got a weekend games session coming up in May so have been 3d printing some token trays - they have come out well and will be useful!
Always happy to play online so please do invite me for a game of something! Me on board Game Arena.
Reading
Still slowly reading Hello World by Hannah Fry. 'Still' because I fall asleep almost immediately. I used to read books avidly but not so much these days.
Ideas
About Now Ideas is an interesting site that allows searching of small sites like this that have About, Now and Ideas pages. This site now has all three!
What I'm Listening To Now
This is a list of the 18 tracks I last listened to on Spotify. If you give the page a refresh in a few moments it might update if I am listening right now!
