Next time I'm on a call with someone who says I've heard good things about you.

Looking forward to daughter's first day of school tomorrow. She's smashed the stay and plays, now for the real thing.
In other news I hit my late 40's last weekend. I keep challenging myself to do better.

Attended the MoT MidsTest meet up last night on metrics that matter.
Any talk that references old school footy management game Championship Manager 01/02 has to be good!
Now to go back over notes.

Starting to think about a blog post reflecting on 20+ years doing testing (I'll have done 22 years at my place of work tomorrow). Need to write something that'd be useful.
