@jakearchibald.com in case you're not a listener, you (and Wordle Analyser) had a fleeting mention in the intro of the latest Ellis & John podcast. Big Wordle energy from John.

Happy annual "work out what relief at source means in the pension section of your tax self-assessment" day. It comes around quicker every year

Found these whilst digging through boxes at my Dad's. Going to find new batteries for them and see if they still work 30 years on.

Whamageddon. What comes from having BBC Radio 2 in the background over lunch.

Still not sure how much this place will be me-me, work-me or some blend of the two.

In the meantime, work-me did a talk about our new MQTT service.

Heading to London for a meeting this afternoon. Of course all the Southampton trains are delayed due to the snow. Now sat on a moving train having driven to Reading. Going to be a long day.

Finishing the Guardian Saturday Crossword over breakfast is always a good start to the day.

Son: Where are we eating?

Me: In our mouths

Son: No, I meant, where are we sitting?

Me: On our bottoms

Son: *sighs and gives up*

Cautious optimism there are some grown-ups in charge who know what they are doing.

Getting increasingly annoyed with security 'researchers' submitting issues where I can check our logs and prove they are lying about what they claim to have demonstrated. We have to treat each report seriously, but it sucks up so much time and energy to refute.

Dusted off my 3d printer (literally... it hasn't been touched for over a year) and made a case for my @pimoroni.com Pico Inky. Need to do something better for the buttons, but pleased with the result so far.

One minute you're thinking a Yorkshire Pudding Wrap filled with roast meat, potatoes, veg and gravy from a food truck is a good idea.

The next minute you're holding one and uncertain how to eat it with any dignity.

I'm going to be live-streaming some Node-RED development work in just over 30 minutes at 4pm GMT.

Feels like I'm getting back into a routine with the streams.

New log store built and ready to be loaded up for the winter.

Figured out how to do the custom handle. @knolleary.net much easier to remember and not tied to someone else's domain.

I don't normally condone this type of behaviour, but I'm eating my first mince pie of the season.

Really enjoying Foundation series 2. Even more so as I keep recognising locations from our trip to Lanzarote a few weeks ago.

Just discovered there's a web app for this place... that'll help shake a habit of the old place.
