The door on our EV's charging port is broken so currently remains open at all times. I drove into #Dundee today slightly annoyed with it but had two lovely interactions with people who came to tell me I'd left it open. All three of us ended up feeling slightly happier, I'm sure.

A review of ‘24 wouldn’t be complete without mentioning Jasmin Paris, co-founder of The Green Runners. She became the 1st woman to finish the Barkley Marathons, completing her five 20-plus-mile loops with one minute & 39 seconds to spare.

I’m looking forward to this.
What if, for the month of December, there were no meetings, no deadlines, no pressure, and we prioritise looking after ourselves?

Boiler repair man — Oh, deary, deary, deary me.
Things not looking good for -2º forecast for tonight. Fingers crossed 🤞 for his poking around to eventually work.
Our wood pellet boiler is just under 10 years old but looks like 20 year old technology.

I have the lgc.li domain and I love how short it is. In my head, it says "logically" but I'm not sure that's at all obvious to anyone else. I've been hand-crafting short URLs to my blog and I guess that one day, but not today, I'll automate that. Short link to my previous post:
