  • At the half way point.

    Ah, I love working from home, being able to enjoy a quiet place to work, being able to grab a coffee within arm reach. I’m reading through ‘WECG Meetings 2026, Public Notes—Jan 29, 2026’ and there is a good amount of stuff that is happening in terms of harmonising implementations, addressing the short comings of…

  • A bit of a shock to the system.

    I had an early start today – up and out of the bed at 7:45am and off to catch the train to work by 8:30am. I was making great time until I ended up at the train station to then find that the train was 15 minutes late with no explanation given. It was kind…

  • Early night in bed.

    Got an early start on Thursday because we’ve got a work function afterwards – up at 7:45am to catch the 8:30am train to work then finishing off at 6:00pm to meet up after work with my work mates. I was going to go for a walk tonight bu unfortunately if I did then I wouldn’t…

  • Chilling out, enjoying the weekend.

    I went for.a 5.8km walk in the afternoon, came back home, watched some YouTube videos and then went for an 11.6km walk thus making it a total of 17.4km that I’ve walked today. It actually worked out good to split the work out into two sessions rather than trying to do the 17.4km all at…

  • Feeling so much better.

    Had a long night sleep, absolutely solid, no interruptions, didn’t have to get up during the night nor did I wake up. I woke up around midday feeling fully refreshed and a whole lot better than I did last week. I woke up, had an Up and Go for brunch then after watching a few…

  • Honestly, I just don’t care.

    This could be a TED talk in its own right but it is amazing the number of influencers who convince themselves that they need to create a narrative around the idea of the audience demanding they say or do something. No one is asking you for anything, stop trying to make out that you have…

  • Getting there…gradually.

    I’ve been off from work for a few days so I thought it would be best to talk to my local healthcare professional to see if it was more serious but I was advised that I need to rest and allow the body to do its thing. I forwarded the medical certificate to my boss…

  • Going to take Friday off.

    Feeling a bit better but not fully recovered. Tonight I went for a walk because I needed some fresh air and some exercise to get my body moving rather than just sitting around at home resulting in the inactivity making it worse. I have been making sure that I’ve had vegetables with every meal to…

  • It makes me wonder.

    I’ve watched a video and it makes me wondering whether the Trump administration has any sort of clue regarding what they want to achieve or are the 4 years going to be nothing more than grifting. I say this because there was a video recently where president Trump was asked regarding the value of the…

  • Taking a day off work.

    Woke up this morning still feeling lousy, coughing all night, sore throat and runny nose – not exactly and enjoyable experience so instead I’m resting up at home in bed and maybe later on I’ll go for a small walk round the block to get some fresh air. I don’t know where it came from…
