I’ve been spending a few days trying to find a fresh new look and I finally found one that is a good balance between simplicity so that the content is the focal point of the blog but not so simple that it looks boring. I was going to go for a dark theme but I…

Finished work tonight, went for my 11.6km walk, jumped in and had a shower and now relaxing in bad watching some YouTube videos.
