Weekly Update 350
And so ends a long period of back-to-back weeks of conferences and talks. It’s funny how these things seem to cluster together at times and whilst the last 6 or 8 weeks (I honestly lose track!) have been chaotic, I’ve now got a few weeks of

This week’s update is dominated by my experience with “Lena”, the scammer from Gumtree who tried to fleece my wife of $800. There’s a blow-by-blow rundown of how it all happened in this video and it’s fascinating to think that these things

Weekly Update 343
A bit late this week as I’ve prioritised time out with the family doing as many New Zealand adventure things as we can. And we’ve seriously maxed out the time, as you can see via the FB link below. But that hasn’t stopped a
