This plane flew low over me just as I was driving out of the car park by the beach. Didn't know it had ditched until I saw the news tonight.

Elis James and John Robins - #410 - Nepo Connectors, Keir Today John Tomorrow and Richard Herring - BBC Sounds Richard Herring's on the show and there’s a Made Up Game that'll shake up UK television.

@jakearchibald.com in case you're not a listener, you (and Wordle Analyser) had a fleeting mention in the intro of the latest Ellis & John podcast. Big Wordle energy from John.

Found these whilst digging through boxes at my Dad's. Going to find new batteries for them and see if they still work 30 years on.

Whamageddon. What comes from having BBC Radio 2 in the background over lunch.

Still not sure how much this place will be me-me, work-me or some blend of the two.

In the meantime, work-me did a talk about our new MQTT service.

Heading to London for a meeting this afternoon. Of course all the Southampton trains are delayed due to the snow. Now sat on a moving train having driven to Reading. Going to be a long day.

Getting increasingly annoyed with security 'researchers' submitting issues where I can check our logs and prove they are lying about what they claim to have demonstrated. We have to treat each report seriously, but it sucks up so much time and energy to refute.

Dusted off my 3d printer (literally... it hasn't been touched for over a year) and made a case for my @pimoroni.com Pico Inky. Need to do something better for the buttons, but pleased with the result so far.

One minute you're thinking a Yorkshire Pudding Wrap filled with roast meat, potatoes, veg and gravy from a food truck is a good idea.

The next minute you're holding one and uncertain how to eat it with any dignity.

knolleary - Twitch CTO at FlowFuse Inc and Node-RED project lead.

I'm going to be live-streaming some Node-RED development work in just over 30 minutes at 4pm GMT.

Feels like I'm getting back into a routine with the streams.

Figured out how to do the custom handle. @knolleary.net much easier to remember and not tied to someone else's domain.

Mirador del RΓ­o - CACT Lanzarote Located 500 meters above a cliff, El Mirador del RΓ­o -viewpoint- offers a spectacular panoramic view of Lanzarote and the Chinijo Archipelago.

No, it's a viewpoint at the top of a cliff. Inside there's a cafe and gift shop.

I have really enjoyed spotting all the locations on Lanzarote we visited this summer.

When Riose and Glawen meet with their informant Ducem Barr on Siwenna, both interior and exterior were the same real world location - Mirador del RΓ­o. I drank a coke exactly where Barr died.
