I'm looking for gainful employment. Want a dynamic language speaking back end developer? Let me know. (H-1B transfer possible in the US.)

@Alby Thanks for the offer, but I found the answer (the location of a 17th century pub) on british-history.ac.uk in the end.

@stml On my “future studies” masters I learned at least as much history as I did stuff about looking at the future. (And it was fascinating)

@dotcode I would pay to watch you interview potential vic^H^H^Hrecruits.

@mattb I’m in the process of finalising the content proposition with my backers. “Stay tuned” as they say in old media!

That was just the kind of fascinating insight into the meaning of existence my followers can expect. You’re welcome.

Resorting to restarting Safari once a day in the hope it stays at a bearable speed. Yay 2011.

@pixellent @spaceboy Me too please. I’ve never (knowingly) taken a baby to the gym. Or talked about them in a high pitched voice.
