Where has all the content gone?

A short update. As some will know I started a new job about 6 weeks ago. Like all new jobs things have been fairly busy, but I have been writing, just not here. Most of my blogging is going to be over at the Navigo Research site. I will still be blogging here, just atContinue reading “Where has all the content gone?”

On the Move

A few months ago I started assessing what I would be doing come the end of March after this very long project was over. I blogged a few times about the process of trying to decide where I was going and what I was doing, I even applied for a few jobs. Well it isContinue reading “On the Move”

Over the years of blogging I tend to self-censor when I feel the work I am doing might lead me to write aboutContinue reading “Not dead and not forgotten”

A blog story 5 years on
