The archive of what I posted on Twitter, which I now self host due to a lack of trust in Twitter and some other reasons.

I'll soon begin refelcting all my Mastodon posts here too. I'm happier self-hosting or maintaining an archive of my content on URLs that I can own.

There are tools to help you do this too. Such as this one from the makers of Eleventy.

Purging, cropping, tweaking, editing, uploading. Photos, that is.

Opening email after 2 weeks away with a sense of dread. It's time to pay the price for such a long time totally off the grid.

Back in Blighty and gagging for a nice cup of tea and a biscuit. Croatia is beautiful. I will be returning. Eyelids... Slowly... Drooping.

An awesome wedding and epic reception that finished with me tiddly(!) and going to bed at 3:40 makes me doubt a final holiday morning swim.

Munching lovely fresh bread after a morning swim in the mirror-like sea and a trip to the bakery. Next week's change of pace will be tough.

Unsure of the wisdom in eating this stodgy Croatian pastry since we challenged the local water polo team to a match. Prediction: humiliation

Happiness is... Meeting up with friends in a beautiful holiday spot and enjoying fresh figs, banter, bbq and beers.

Sad to finish the unputdownable 'The Other Hand' by @chriscleave. Beautifuly written, troubling at times, yet heart-warming Thank you Chris

Watching the sunset over the Adriatic while eating what must be the perfect peach. Roald Dahl required to properly describe the experience.

Feet up and beer in hand at an amazing little spot clinging on to the cliffs on the edge of Dubrovnik Old Town. Bliss!

This morning I turned off my Macbook for the first time since getting it 4 months ago. It is holidaying at home while I head to Croatia.

Noticing that the list of things that I need to do before I start my holiday is getting longer not shorter. And one of them involves IE6 :(

Just when you think you've put out all the fires you get blindsided by a giant flaming articulated lorry. Full of fire pixies. And oily rags

Wondering if I'll be stuck on this train all day. When you can see the platform where you get off, prison break style plans formulate.
