Today I turned ten thousand, five hundred and ninety two days old

So today I turned 29 and I’d like to take a minute out to say thanks to every­one who has wished my happy birth­day via twit­ter, face­book, text or phone call. A lot of you I didn’t know a few years ago, and say what you like about social net­work­ing and attend­ing con­fer­ences, you can’t deny it’s pos­sible to make some really good friends via those mediums.

I’d also like to say thank you to Chris for send­ing me a bottle of Kraken in the post, which was lovely. I’d like to thank him for all the help and advice he’s given my over the last 12 months and I hope him, Rachael and Sil­ver are set­tling well “up North”. I’d also like to wish Greg, Elton John, Aretha Frank­lin and Sarah Jes­sica Parker happy birth­day too.

Yum yum yum, Krakeb

Lastly, I’d like to point you at my new shiny shiny blog design, com­plete with amaz­ing drop caps by the bril­liantly tal­en­ted Jes­sica His­che, and a photo from the Existem Christ­mas party that is just my favour­ite pic­ture ever taken — well kinda.
