Unfortunately the Update Police came knocking at the weekend and informed me I had to post, otherwise they’d throw me in jail for ever more (well, I assumed that was the case – these kind of threats tend to carry a subtle underlying tone of menace that’s hard to ignore).

What’s happened since the last post you may ask?

House purchase:

Despite all the doom mongering going on at the moment, Han and I have bought a house to live in (shock horror! People need somewhere to live!). This is the 3rd property we’ve attempted to buy, and seems to be actually going somewhere. The last place ended up going tits up due to God knows what, but resulted in us finding somewhere else that’s probably more suitable.

Property buying ultimately leads to content buying for said property, so in the past few months we’ve been buying furniture (including but not limited to a sofa, a reclining chair, an antique French bed, some white goods and lots of stuff for the kitchen). It’s all lovely, but when it’s all stacked up in our two bed flat, kind of in need need of some proper space. Roll on completion.

Work

I’m still working for the same company I started at almost 2 years ago now. The work I do is pretty dull these days and if I didn’t have other things cooking I’d be moving on to pastures new. I work in a relatively new technology environment, but the amount of new tech I’m getting exposed to in a “traditional” web development company is nil at the minute (in a professional capacity).

Other work

More on this at a later date

This has turned out to be a pretty dull post. Sorry.
