Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work.

"No, you don't need a dashboard"

"We'll give that a go and if it works great, if it doesn't we'll do something else. Sure I've run it past the boss"

I still am not confident England won't throw it away.

But that was fun

Having been at 90km/h on skis, I can confirm the speeds they are doing round corners in the downhill are as insane as you think they are!

Bit too much MS Teams in my life so feel your pain.

Other than that pretty good thanks, mostly keeping out of trouble.

Hope life treating you well outside of work browsers

Not sure if it will do this, but I remember Firefox used to have really good PDF editing built in. Might be worth a try

Mad to think this is 10 years ago

So much that has happened since has been a direct result of working on this or what I learnt as part of it.

No idea what I would be doing now if this hadn't happened or I hadn't worked with people who were so kind, supportive and generous with their knowledge
Feb is the 10 year anniversary of when we relaunched the ONS website...so me being me I have had some stickers done!
Anyone involved back then DM me and I'll send you one (though these days I suspect most folks are just on LinkedIn if anywhere!)

All shitty reality television should be forced to use special characters in its name so it is easy to block.

Muting the word "traiters" feels a bit too broad 😭
